TM 55-1510-219-10
(12)
Designating fly-to-destinations or TACAN.
1.
Data selector L/L WYPT or
UTM WYPT, as required.
2.
Waypoint
thumbwheel
Select destination number.
(Observe number of destination waypoint appears in
"TO" part of FROM-TO display.)
3.
Data selector HDG DA.
(Observe present aircraft heading appears, to
nearest tenth of degree, in left data display; also drift
angle, to nearest degree, appears in right data display.)
NOTE
Navigation information is now
available from INS for display on
pilot's RMI and on pilot's and
copilot's HSI's as determined by
COURSE INDICATOR switches.
(13) To fly selected INS course.
1.
Pilot's COURSE INDICATOR
switch INS.
2.
Pilot's RMI select switch INS.
3.
Horizontal Situation Indicators
(pilot's and/or copilot's HSI)
Steer toward indicators.
4.
CDU ALERT lamp Monitor.
(Observe illumination approx 1.3 minutes before
reaching point for automatic leg switch. Indicator
flashes on and off after passing a waypoint, if
AUTO/MAN switch is in MAN.)
(14)
Aided TACAN operation.
1.
Mode selector NAV.
2.
Data selector DSRTK/STS.
3.
Key "4" Press.
(Observe
right
data
display
is
"000004"
and
INSERT/ADVANCE pushbutton light is illuminated.)
4.
INSERT/ADVANCE
pushbutton Press.
(Observe
right
data
display
is
"1-XX4"
and
INSERT/ADVANCE pushbutton light is extinguished.)
NOTE
Every 15 seconds, the INS will
select next eligible TACAN station
in sequence for 3-58 updating. To
be eligible, TACAN station range
must be between 5 and 150 nmi
and channel between 1 and 126.
5.
Data selector L/L WYPT or
UTM WYPT.
6.
Keys "7" and "9" - Press
simultaneously.
(Observe channel number of the TACAN station being
used for navigation flashes on and off. Data displays
indicate coordinates of station selected via thumbwheel.)
7.
To monitor station selection
Observe
FROM-TO
data
display.
(Observe only the number of stations eligible for
mixing will be displayed. A "0" indicates that none of the
9 stations are eligible for selection.)
8.
Monitor
"TACAN
UPDATE"
annunciator.
NOTE
Mixing will not be annunciated if:
(a)
TACAN
control
is
inappropriately set; (b) TACAN
station data loaded in error; (c)
aircraft look-down angle is greater
than 30°; (d) horizontal ground
distance is less than two times the
altitude.
9.
To
return
INS
display
to
normal. Set data selector to
any position except WYPT or
DIS/TIME.
10.
To monitor progress of update
Set data selector to DSRTK/
STS.
(Observe
Accuracy
Index (AI) will decrement to
"0".)
NOTE
To
insure
favorable
geometry
during the update process, the
following TACAN station criteria
should be observed:
* One station must be at least 15 nmi off course.
* For optimum single TACAN station updating,
update should continue until aircraft has passed the
station.
* For optimum dual TACAN updating, use one "off-
track" TACAN station and one "on-track" station.
* For optimum multi-TACAN station updating, the
stations should be evenly distributed in azimuth around
the aircraft.
