Please refer to your particular autopilot manual for specific information and operation instructions. Heading You are able to control your selected autopilot heading with the GDU 620 by using the heading bug. 1) Press the HDG key on the PFD and turn the PFD knob to set the desired heading. When the knob is turned, the Selected Heading box will appear and remain for three seconds after the knob stops moving. 3) Continue to control your selected autopilot heading by adjusting the heading bug on the GDU 620. PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAY Selected Heading Box Selected Heading Box on HSI Altitude Capture (Optional Interface) The altitude selector function is a separately purchased option which works with the autopilot. At the set altitude, the autopilot will go from a Vertical Speed Mode (a climb or descent) to an Altitude Capture mode where it will hold the selected altitude. 1) Select the desired altitude on the GDU 620 by pressing the ALT key and turning the PFD knob so the altitude bug is at the desired altitude. 3) The autopilot will capture the selected altitude. 12 G600 Cockpit Reference Guide 190-00601-03 Rev A PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAY (PFD) NOTE: The selected Vertical Speed bug on the GDU 620 will not control the autopilot vertical speed. The autopilot vertical speed must be selected directly on the autopilot controller. Autopilot Navigation 1) Set your navigation source and HSI to the desired course. 3) Control your autopilot navigation through the navigation source and the HSI. Autopilot Operation with GPSS The GDU 620 processes heading and GPSS information and sends it to the autopilot to allow the aircraft to anticipate turns and make smooth transitions when passing waypoint. 3) Control your autopilot navigation through the navigation source and the HSI.
