(7) Light sensor. This built-in light sensor
automatically controls display brightness.
(8) Volume control. The volume control is
concentric with the power and mode switch.
(9) Power and mode switch. The power
and mode switch contains three detented positions
placarded OFF, ON, and HLD. The ON and OFF
position switches system power. The hold ( HLD)
position allows the navigation receiver frequency to be
changed while holding the DME in its present frequency.
(10)Annunciators. The receiver control unit
contains
MEM
(memory)
and
RMT
(remote)
annunciators.
The
MEM
annunciator
illuminates
whenever a preset frequency is being displayed in the
lower window. The RMT annunciator is not used in this
installation.
(11)Preset frequency display. The preset
(inactive) frequency and diagnostic messages are
displayed in the lower window.
(12)Compare annunciator. An annunciator
placarded
ACT
momentarily
illuminates
when
frequencies are being changed. The ACT annunciator
flashes if the actual radio frequency which the receiver is
tuned to is not identical to the frequency shown in the
active frequency display.

Operating Procedures.
WARNING
It is not practical to provide monitoring for all
conceivable
system
failures
and,
it
is
possible that erroneous operation could
occur without a fault indication. It is the
responsibility of the pilot to detect such an
occurrence by means of cross-checks with
redundant or correlated information available
in the cockpit.
