The GPS CDI Box on the System Setup Page allows the pilot to define the range for the on-screen course

deviation indicator (CDI). The range values represent full range deflection for the CDI to either side. The
default setting is ‘AUTO’. Refer to the Flight Instruments sections for a discussion on CDI scaling.

If a lower CDI range setting is selected (i.e., 1.0 or 0.3 nm), the higher range settings are not selected

during any phase of flight. For example, if 1.0 nm is selected, the G1000 uses this for en route and terminal
phases and ramps down to 0.3 nm during an approach. Note that the Receiver Autonomous Integrity
Monitoring (RAIM) protection limits follow the selected CDI range and corresponding flight phases.

The GPS CDI Box on the System Setup Page displays the following:

• Selected CDI range (auto, 2 nm, 1 nm, 0.3 nm)

• Current system CDI range (2 nm, 1 nm, 0.3 nm)

• ILS CDI capture mode setting (auto, manual)

To change the CDI range:

1) While on the System Setup Page, press the FMS Knob momentarily to activate the flashing cursor.
2) Turn the large FMS Knob to highlight the selected field in the GPS CDI Box.
3) Turn the small FMS Knob to display and scroll through the range list and press the ENT Key when the desired

selection is highlighted.
