This section only applies to the GFC 700 Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS). NOTE: The GFC 700 AFCS is not available for the Cessna 172. 6.1 AFCS CONTROLS The following dedicated AFCS keys are located on the bezels of the PFD and MFD: forward of the MET Switch on the pilot’s control wheel left grip.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL 6.2 FLIGHT DIRECTOR OPERATION With the flight director activated, the aircraft can be hand-flown to follow the path shown by the Command Bars. Maximum commanded pitch (+20°/-15°) and bank (22°) angles, vertical acceleration, and roll rate are limited to values established during AFCS certification. The flight director also provides commands to the autopilot.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL AFCS Status Box Flight director roll modes are shown on the left and pitch on the right. Armed modes are annunciated in white and active in green. Autopilot status is displayed in the center of the AFCS Status Box. 6.3 FLIGHT DIRECTOR MODES Flight director modes are normally selected independently for the pitch and roll axes. Unless otherwise specified, all mode keys are alternate action (i.e., press on, press off).
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Table 6-1 lists the pitch modes with their corresponding controls and annunciations. The mode reference (shown with default measurement units) is displayed next to the active mode annunciation for Altitude Hold, Vertical Speed, and Flight Level Change modes. The NOSE UP/ NOSE DN Keys can be used to change the pitch mode reference while operating under Pitch Hold, Vertical Speed, or Flight Level Change Mode.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Pitch Hold Mode (PIT) Changing the Pitch Reference When the flight director is activated (the FD Key is pressed), Pitch Hold Mode is selected by default. Pitch Hold Mode is indicated as the active pitch mode by the green annunciation ‘PIT’. This mode may be used for climb or descent to the Selected Altitude (shown above the Altimeter), since Selected Altitude Capture Mode is automatically armed when the mode is activated.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Selected Altitude Capture Mode (ALTS) Selected Altitude Capture Mode arms automatically when the flight director is in Pitch Hold, Vertical Speed, Flight Level Change, or Go Around Mode. This mode is also armed automatically under Vertical Path Tracking Mode when the Selected Altitude is to be captured instead of the VNAV Target Altitude. The white ‘ALTS’ annunciation indicates Selected Altitude Capture Mode is armed (see Figure 6-5 for example).
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL If the Selected Altitude is reached during CWS maneuvering, the Altitude Reference is not changed. To adjust the Altitude Reference in this case, the CWS Button must be pressed again after the Selected Altitude is reached.

SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL descent). The flight director maintains the current altitude until either engine power or the Airspeed Reference are adjusted and does not allow the aircraft to climb or descend away from the Selected Altitude.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Vertical Navigation Modes (VPTH, ALTV) NOTE: Pressing the CWS Button while Vertical Path Tracking Mode is active does not cancel the mode. The autopilot guides the aircraft back to the descent path upon release of the CWS Button. NOTE: VNAV flight director pitch modes are available only in conjunction with GPS roll modes. NOTE: The Selected Altitude takes precedence over any other vertical constraints.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL In conjunction with the “TOD [top of descent] within 1 minute” annunciation in the Navigation Data Box, VNAV indications (VNAV Target Altitude, vertical deviation, and vertical speed required) appear on the PFDs in magenta (Figure 6-11).
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL When a descent leg is captured (Figure 6-12), Vertical Path Tracking becomes active and tracks the descent profile. An altitude capture mode (‘ALTS’ or ‘ALTV’) is armed as appropriate.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL VNAV flight control is selected. If the VS or FLC Key is pressed while Vertical Path Tracking Mode is selected, Vertical Path Tracking Mode reverts to armed along with the appropriate altitude capture mode to allow profile recapture.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Changing the current VNAV Target Altitude while VNAV Target Altitude Capture Mode is active causes the flight director to revert to Pitch Hold Mode. Vertical Path Tracking and the appropriate altitude capture mode are armed in preparation to capture the new VNAV Target Altitude or the Selected Altitude, depending on which altitude is to be intercepted first.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Figure 6-16 Glidepath Mode Armed If vertical guidance becomes or is expected to become unavailable and the approach downgrades, Glidepath Mode is disarmed. When vertical guidance becomes available again, Glidepath Mode is automatically re-armed under GPS Approach Mode. Glideslope Mode is available for LOC/ILS approaches to capture and track the glideslope.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Go Around (GA) Mode Pushing the GA Switch engages the flight director in a wings level, 7° pitch-up attitude, allowing the execution of a missed approach or a go around. This mode is a couple pitch and roll mode and is annunciated as ‘GA’ in both the pitch and roll active mode fields. Go Around Mode disengages the autopilot and arms Altitude Hold Mode automatically. Subsequent autopilot engagement is allowed. Attempts to modify the aircraft attitude (i.e.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Roll Modes • Roll Hold (default mode) — Holds the current aircraft roll attitude or rolls the wings level, depending on the commanded bank angle • Heading Select — Captures and tracks the Selected Heading • Navigation (GPS, VOR, LOC) — Captures and tracks the selected navigation source • Backcourse — Captures and tracks a localizer signal for backcourse approaches • Approach (GPS, VAPP, LOC) — Captures and tracks the selected navigation source with greater sensitivity f
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Heading Select Mode (HDG) Figure 6-20 Roll Hold Mode Annunciation Bank Angle Flight Director Response < 6° Rolls wings level 6° to 22° Maintains current aircraft roll attitude > 22° Limits bank to 22° Heading Select Mode is activated by pressing HDG Key. Heading Select Mode acquires and maintains the Selected Heading. The Selected Heading is shown by a light blue bug on the HSI and in the box to the upper left of the HSI.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Turns are commanded in the same direction as Selected Heading Bug movement, even if the bug is turned more than 180° from the present heading (e.g., a 270° turn to the right). However, Selected Heading changes of more than 340° at a time result in turn reversals. Navigation Mode (GPS, VOR, LOC) NOTE: The selected navigation receiver must have a valid VOR or LOC signal or active GPS course for the flight director to enter Navigation Mode.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL When the CDI has automatically switched from GPS to LOC during a LOC/ILS approach, GPS Navigation Mode remains active, providing GPS steering guidance until the localizer signal is captured. LOC Navigation Mode is armed in anticipation of localizer signal capture if the APR Key is not pressed prior to the automatic source switch.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL Backcourse Mode (BC) Changing the Selected Course NOTE: When making a backcourse approach, set the Selected Course to the localizer front course. Backcourse Mode captures and tracks a localizer signal. The mode may be selected by pressing the BC Key. Backcourse Mode is armed if the CDI is greater than one dot when the mode is selected. The flight director creates roll steering commands from the Selected Course and deviation when in Backcourse Mode.
SECTION 6 – AUTOMATIC FLIGHT CONTROL 6.4 AUTOPILOT OPERATION NOTE: Refer to the AFM for specific instructions regarding emergency procedures. Cessna Nav III’s autopilot operates flight control surface servos to provide automatic flight control. The autopilot controls the aircraft pitch and roll attitudes following commands received from the flight director. Pitch autotrim provides trim commands to the pitch trim adapter to relieve any sustained effort required by the pitch servo.

SECTION 11 – ABNORMAL OPERATION 11.2 ABNORMAL COM OPERATION When a COM tuning failure is detected by the system, the emergency frequency (121.500 MHz) is automatically loaded into the active frequency field of the COM radio for which the tuning failure was detected. In the event of a dual display failure, the emergency frequency (121.500 MHz) automatically becomes the active frequency to the pilot through the pilot headset. 11.
SECTION 11 – ABNORMAL OPERATION 11.6 DEAD RECKONING While in Enroute or Oceanic phase of flight, if the G1000 detects an invalid GPS solution or is unable to calculate a GPS position, the system will automatically revert to Dead Reckoning (DR) Mode. In DR Mode, the G1000 uses its last-known position combined with continuously updated airspeed and heading data (when available) to calculate and display the aircraft’s current estimated position.
SECTION 11 – ABNORMAL OPERATION will be disabled. Additionally, the accuracy of all nearest information (airports, airspaces, and waypoints) will be questionable. Finally, airspace alerts will continue to function, but with degraded accuracy. 11-4 Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Cessna Nav III 190-00384-07 Rev.
SECTION 12 – ANNUNCIATIONS & ALERTS SECTION 12: ANNUNCIATIONS & ALERTS NOTE: The Cessna aircraft Pilot’s Operating Handbook (POH) supersedes information found in this document. The G1000 Alerting System conveys alerts to the pilot using a combination of the following items: • Annunciation Window: The Annunciation Window displays abbreviated annunciation text. Text color is based on alert levels described later in the Alert Levels Definitions section.
SECTION 12 – ANNUNCIATIONS & ALERTS 12.1 ALERT LEVEL DEFINITIONS The G1000 Alerting System, as installed in Cessna Nav III aircraft, uses three alert levels. • WARNING: This level of alert requires immediate pilot attention. A warning alert is annunciated in the Annunciation Window and is accompanied by a continuous aural tone. Text appearing in the Annunciation Window is RED. A warning alert is also accompanied by a flashing WARNING Softkey annunciation, as shown in Figure 12-2.
