1.4 System Operation
NOTE: Refer to Section 6 for detailed descriptions of all alerts and
annunciations.
1.4.1 Pilot Controls
The GDU 620 controls have been designed to simplify operation of the system
and minimize workload and the time required to access functionality. Controls
are located on the PFD and MFD bezels and are comprised of a PFD knob, MFD
dual concentric knobs, bezel keys, and soft keys.
1.4.1.1 PFD Knob
Turning the PFD knob adjusts the values for the mode selected by the PFD
bezel keys, such as, Heading (HDG), Course (CRS), Altitude (ALT), Vertical
Speed (V/S), and Barometric Setting (BARO). The values are shown in a window
to the left of the HSI. Pressing the PFD knob reverts to the default value of the
selected mode.
