FPD 500 FLAT PANEL DISPLAY SYSTEM
3.2.1.7 Distance Display
Two white alphanumeric distance displays provide the distance in
nautical miles from the aircraft to the selected DME or VORTAC sta-
tion in the standard navigation mode
(DME), or distance to a waypoint in the
INS mode. The distance source is annun-
ciated above its respective distance
value. If distance data is invalid, the dis-
tance value is replaced by dashes. When
distance data is missing, the entire dis-
ance display is removed. DME distance
is shown as XXX.X from 0.0 thru 399.9
NM. INS distance is shown as XXX.X
from 0.0 thru 999.9 and as XXXX for
1000 NM and above.
3.2.1.8 To/From Display
An orange arrowhead near the center of
the azimuth card pointing towards the
head of the course pointer represents a
“TO” indication, pointing towards the tail
of the course pointer represents a
“FROM” indication. The arrowhead points
toward the navigation station or waypoint,
indicating whether the current selected
course is TO or FROM the navigation
station or waypoint.
3.2.1.9 Glideslope Display
A white stationary dotted vertical scale located
on the left side of the indicator is the reference
for the glideslope deviation pointer (white trian-
gle). The glideslope pointer indicates the center
of the glideslope with respect to the actual air-
craft position.
