PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAY
DME Radio (optional)
The DME radio is a Honeywell KN63 remote mounted,
200-channel, 100-watt, all-solid-state digital DME which
provides distance information to the G1000.
Press the
PFD softkey followed by the DME softkey
to display the DME Information Window. The DME In-
formation Window is displayed above the BRG1 Informa
-
tion Window and displays the DME label, tuning mode
(NAV1, NAV2, or HOLD), frequency, and distance. When
a signal is invalid, the distance is replaced by “–.– – NM.”
The pilot may select from three DME tuning modes:
• NAV1 – Tunes the DME frequency from the selected
NAV1 frequency
• NAV2 – Tunes the DME frequency from the selected
NAV2 frequency
• HOLD – When transitioning from NAV1 or NAV2
mode to Hold mode, the DME frequency remains
set to the last selected NAV frequency
NOTE: When navigating in GPS mode, the dis-
tance displayed is the GPS-derived great-circle
distance, not the actual DME distance.

ADF Radio (optional)
The ADF radio is a Becker RA3502 (1) remote mount-

PFD softkey, then by pressing the BRG1 or BRG2 softkey

the three-o’clock position on the HSI
The Morse code can also be identified.
• BFO (beat frequency oscillator) mode – Provides
an audible tone detected through the receiver when
a frequency is tuned in
No Morse code is heard.
• ADF mode – The ADF bearing pointer should
point to the station
The Morse code can also be identified.
