Power Up.
Rotate the ON/OFF/VOL knob clock-
wise from the detented “OFF” position.
Power will be activated and the unit will be
ready to operate. Rotation of this control
also adjusts audio volume. The CNI 5000
ADF has “audio muting” which causes the
audio output to be muted unless the receiv-
er is locked on a valid station.
Frequency Selection.
The active frequency (to which the ADF
is tuned) is displayed in the left side of the
window at all times. A standby frequency is
displayed in the right side when “FRQ” is
annunciated. The standby frequency is
placed in “blind” memory when either FLT
(Flight Time) or ET (Elapsed Time) mode is
selected.
With “FRQ” annunciated, the standby
frequency is selected using the frequency
select knobs which may be rotated either
clockwise or counterclockwise. Pull the
small inner knob out to tune 1’s. Push the
small inner knob in to tune 10’s. The outer
knob tunes the 100’s and the 1000’s up to
1799kHz.
The standby frequency selected may
then be put into the active window by
pressing the “FRQ” button. The standby
and active frequencies will be exchanged
(flip-flopped), the new frequency will
become active, and the former frequency
will go into standby.
Operating Modes.
Antenna (ANT) mode is selected and
annunciated when the “ADF” button is in
the “out” position. ANT provides improved
audio reception from the station tuned and
is usually used for identification. The bear-
ing pointer of the ADF indicator will be
deactivated and immediately turn to 90°
relative position and remain there during
ANT reception.
The ADF mode is selected and
annunciated when the “ADF” button is in
the depressed position. ADF activates the
bearing pointer in the ADF indicator, caus-
ing it to move without hesitation to point in
the direction of the station relative to the
aircraft heading.
