When a bearing pointer is displayed, the associated information window is also displayed. The Bearing
Information Windows (Figure 2-18) are displayed at the lower sides of the HSI and give the following
information:
• Bearing source (NAV, GPS, ADF)
• Pointer icon (BRG1 = single line,BRG2 = double
line)
• Frequency (NAV, ADF)
• Station/waypoint identifier (NAV, GPS)
• GPS-derived great circle distance to bearing
source
When the NAV radio is tuned to an ILS frequency the bearing source and the bearing pointer is removed
from the HSI. When NAV1 or NAV2 is the selected bearing source, the frequency is replaced by the station
identifier when the station is within range. If GPS is the bearing source, the active waypoint identifier is
displayed instead of a frequency.
The bearing pointer is removed from the HSI and NO DATA is displayed in the information window if
the NAV radio is not receiving a VOR station or if GPS is the bearing source and an active waypoint is not
selected.
