NOTE: With GPSS engaged and in Heading mode, the Heading bug will
not control your autopilot heading. This is annunciated next to the HSI by
the GPSS annunciation. The Heading bug may still be used for reference,
but the autopilot will not control the aircraft via the heading bug.
5.6.5 Flight Director Display
If autopilot flight director commands are interfaced to the G600, they will be
presented as a single cue flight director on the PFD. Control of the flight director
is accomplished via the autopilot/flight director controller; there are no pilot
controls or adjustments for the flight director on the G600.
The G600 system limits the distance the flight director pitch commands may
deviate from the aircraft attitude icon. In the event that the pitch command
provided by the autopilot flight director is greater than the distance allowed by
the G600, the command bars will be displayed at the maximum distance allowed
by the G600. As the aircraft pitch changes to satisfy the command bars, the bars
will continue to be displayed at the maximum distance from the aircraft attitude
icon until the aircraft pitch deviation is within the command display limit.
