3.4.4. CYCLIC FIELDS
On many of the KLN 89(B) pages,
there are cyclic fields, which are pre-
ceded by a carat (>). A cyclic field is
one that you as the pilot can select
from two or more options. For exam-
ple, in figure 3-55, the field >135°To
(magnetic bearing to Austin VOR) is a cyclic field. In this case, the
second option is the magnetic radial from Austin VOR to present
position.
To change a cyclic field:
1.
Turn on the cursor by pressing
the
B
button (figure 3-56).
2.
Using the right outer knob, move
the cursor over the cyclic field
you wish to change (figure 3-57).
3.
Press the
E
button to change
the cyclic field (figure 3-58).
Notice that repeated
E
presses
“cycle” you through the choices.
In this case there are only two, so
E
works like a toggle switch.
3.5. MESSAGE PAGE
Whenever the KLN 89(B) wants to
get your attention, the message
prompt (a large “M” on the left side of
the screen) begins flashing (figure 3-
60). If you have a remote message
annunciator in your aircraft, it will also
begin flashing at that time. You should view the message at your
earliest opportunity because the unit may be alerting you to some sit-
uation of immediate concern to its condition or to your flight. A
description of each possible message is included in Appendix B of
this Pilot’s Guide.
