2. When the computed capture point
is reached, the LOC Approach
Coupled mode is automatically acti-
vated and a left turn outbound on the
localizer is commanded by the flight
director and satisfied by the autopilot.
Note the left/right deviations are
directional.
3. Prior to the procedure turn, posi-
tion the heading bug to 283° which
gives the 45° angle for the initial pro-
cedure turn heading. At the point
where the procedure turn is to be ini-
tiated, depress the HDG pushbutton
to engage the Heading Select mode.
The autopilot will turn the aircraft to
the heading bug heading (283°).
During the procedure turn outbound,
the deviation bar shows pictorially
that the aircraft is flying away from
the localizer centerline at a 45°
angle.
Note: When activating Approach
Arm, it is important that the air-
craft be relatively close to and not
making any turns away from the
localizer. Side lobes or false sig-
nals are often present from the
localizer transmitter. These false
signals may cause the autopilot
to approach couple prior to reach-
ing the actual localizer signal.
