NO.
DESCRIPTION/FUNCTION
1
Pressing PSN function key will access the
pilot position page.
2
Computed magnetic variation at present
position.
3
This line select key is non-operational if a
computed wind speed is available or if the
FMS
is
displaying
an
INU
wind.
Otherwise, the following three actions will
occur:
1. Selection with a valid entry in the
scratchpad will enter the wind.
2. Selection with an empty scratchpad
will copy the wind entry into the
scratchpad.
3. Selection with a - in the scratchpad
will set the wind speed to 0 knots.

Track displays mag track.
5
Navigation source selected on pilot/copilot
lateral steer pages.
The status and validity of the navigational source
are indicated on the title lines of the Pilot Position
pages. Table 3B -76 lists the indications and their
meanings. Any automatic downgrading of the
navigation source is annunciated on the CDU.
A nav error annunciation and/or the HSI flag
are provided when either the status of the selected
navigation sensors has degraded or the 95% error
exceeds a threshold determined by the current flight
plan guidance mode; EN ROUTE, TERMINAL, or
APPROACH. When these alerts are provided,
examine the current state of the GPS navigation
solution and compare the solution to the other on-
board navigation systems. If necessary, select a
different navigation sensor to provide continued
guidance of the aircraft.
(a) GPS Display. The GPS INAV page
shows the present position output from the GPS
receiver. It also shows a 95% error figure of merit for
the probable system accuracy, given the current GPS
satellite navigational quality (satellite tracking state
and geometry) as shown in Figure 3B -114 and Table
3B-77. If GPS/A/H is indicated on the title line, the
FMS-800 is using airspeed and heading sensor inputs
to smooth the GPS data. This is required to have a
valid bank (roll) command output to the flight director
and autopilot.
