SYSTEM OVERVIEW
In the following descriptions, top level softkeys are denoted by bullets.
PFD SOFTKEYS
The CDI , IDENT , TMR/REF , NRST, and ALERTS softkeys undergo a momentary change to black text on
gray background and automatically switch back to white text on black background when selected.
The PFD softkeys provide control over flight management functions, including GPS, NAV, terrain, traffic,
and lightning (optional). Each softkey sublevel has a
BACK Softkey which can be selected to return to the
previous level. The ALERTS Softkey is visible at all softkey levels (label changes if messages are issued).
