SYSTEM OVERVIEW
• (14) Dual FMS Knob – Used to select the page to be
viewed (only on the MFD). The large knob selects a
page group (MAP, WPT, AUX, NRST), while the small
knob selects a specific page within the page group.
Pressing the small knob turns the selection cursor
ON and OFF. When the cursor is ON, data may be
entered in the different windows using the small and
large knobs. The large knob is used to move the
cursor on the page, while the small knob is used to
select individual characters for the highlighted cursor
location. When the G1000 displays a list that is too
long for the display screen, a scroll bar appears along
the right side of the display, indicating the availability
of additional items within the selected category. Press
the FMS/PUSH CRSR knob to activate the cursor
and turn the large FMS knob to scroll through the
list.
• (15) MENU Key – Displays a context-sensitive
list of options. This list allows the user to access
additional features, or to make setting changes that
relate to certain pages.
• (16) PROC Key – Selects approaches, departures
and arrivals from the flight plan. If a flight plan is
used, available procedures for the departure and/or
arrival airport are automatically suggested. If a
flight plan is not used, the desired airport and the
desired procedure may be selected. This key selects
IFR departure procedures (DPs), arrival procedures
(STARs) and approaches (IAPs) from the database
and loads them into the active flight plan.
• (17) ENT Key – Accepts a menu selection or data
entry. This key is used to approve an operation
