SYSTEM OVERVIEW
• (15) PROC Key – Selects approaches, departures
and arrivals from the flight plan. When using a
flight plan, 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.
• (16) ENT Key – Accepts a menu selection or data
entry. This key is used to approve an operation or
to complete data entry. It is also used to confirm
selections and information entries.
• (17) Dual ALT Knob – Sets the reference altitude
in the window located above the Altimeter. The
large knob selects the thousands, while the small
knob selects the hundreds.
NOTE: The selected COM (displayed in green)
is controlled by the COM MIC key on the audio
panel (GMA 1347).
