receiver. Press to toggle the tuning cursor (light blue box) between the NAV1 and NAV2 fields.
4 Heading Knob – Turn to manually select a heading on the HSI. When pressed, it synchronizes the heading

while operating in Heading Select mode.
5 Joystick – Changes the map range (distance top to bottom of map display) when rotated. Activates the map
pointer when pressed.
6 CRS/BARO Knob – The large knob sets the altimeter barometric pressure and the small knob adjusts the
course. The course is only adjustable when the HSI is in VOR1, VOR2, or OBS/SUSP mode. Pressing this
knob centers the CDI on the currently selected VOR. Selected course provides course reference to the Flight
Director when operating in Navigation and Approach modes.
7 Dual COM Knob – Tunes the MHz (large knob) and kHz (small knob) standby frequencies for the COM
transceiver. Pressing this knob toggles the tuning cursor (light blue box) between the COM1 and COM2
fields.
8 COM Frequency Transfer Key – Transfers the standby and active COM frequencies. Pressing and holding
this key for two seconds automatically tunes the emergency frequency (121.5 MHz) in the active frequency
field.
9 COM VOL/SQ Knob – Controls COM audio level. Audio volume level is shown in the field as a percentage.
Pressing this knob turns the COM automatic squelch ON and OFF.
10 Direct-to Key – Allows the user to enter a destination waypoint and establish a direct course to the selected
destination (specified by the identifier, chosen from the active route, or taken from the map pointer
position).
11 FPL Key – Displays the active Flight Plan Page for creating and editing the active flight plan, or for accessing
stored flight plans.
12 CLR Key (DFLT MAP) – Erases information, cancels an entry, or removes page menus. To display the
Navigation Map Page immediately, press and hold CLR (MFD only).
13 Dual FMS Knob – Used to select the page to be viewed (only on the MFD). The large knob selects a page
group (MAP, WPT, AUX, NRST), while the small knob selects a specific page within the page group. Pressing
the small knob turns the selection cursor ON and OFF. When the cursor is ON, data may be entered in the
different windows using the small and large knobs. The large knob is used to move the cursor on the page,
while the small knob is used to select individual characters for the highlighted cursor location. When the
G1000 displays a list that is too long for the display screen, a scroll bar appears along the right side of the
display, indicating the availability of additional items within the selected category. Press the small
FMS Knob
to activate the cursor and turn the large FMS Knob to scroll through the list.
