MFD/PFD CONTROL UNIT
The MFD/PFD Control Unit is a pedestal-mounted interface allowing MFD/PFD operation, data entry, COM
and NAV tuning, and transponder control. Many procedures can be performed using the MFD/PFD Control
Unit rather than the PFD display bezel controls. Annunciators above the PFD, MFD, NAV, and COM keys are
illuminated when their respective control modes are selected. The unit is in MFD control mode by default on
system power-up.
COM and NAV radio tuning can be accomplished in either MFD or PFD control mode. The appropriate
frequency box on the selected display is outlined by a light blue selection box, which flashes for a few seconds to
indicate control unit activity. Selection of a different display control or radio tuning mode results in cancelation
of the previous radio tuning mode.
