prior to re-engaging the AP. If you select YES, the AP disarms all modes upon disengaging the
AP, turning off all mode lights on the AP74. You must then select the active modes prior to re-
engaging the AP (although if no modes are pre-armed, pressing the AP button causes the HDG
mode to be engaged by default).
Clearing modes on disengage is most useful when used in conjunction with the ON MODE
ARM pre-select configuration above. This forces you to explicitly enable (and thus synchronize)
the modes you wish the autopilot to control when you press the AP button.
The default value for this setting is NO, leaving all modes pre-armed after turning off the AP.
 If there is no further action (either a knob push or knob rotation) within 5 seconds, the
pop-up window automatically closes.
SELECT CONFIGURATION
S menu, you can choose when the heading and
tud bugs should be synchronized to their respective current values:
ON ENGAGE: The HDG and ALT bugs are synchronized to the heading and altitude
values each time the AP is engaged (via the AP button on the AP74 or in the EFIS AP
menu). This is the default setting.
ON MODE ARM: The HDG and ALT bugs are synchronized when their respective
mode is armed. When the HD
bug is synchronized to the current heading.

bug settings are not modified. This allows you to enter a desired heading and/or altitud
prior to engaging the AP.
 NEVER: The HDG and ALT bugs are never automatically modified by turning on th
or changing AP modes. Be aware that the bugs are highly likely to be set far away from
the current heading and altitude at the time of AP engagement; this will result in the AP
immediately commanding a turn and a climb or descent at time of engage. When
using this mode, we recommend that you verify the EFIS’ bugs settings prior to

MODE CLEARING CONFIGURATION
In the –CLEAR MODES– section, you can configure whether the autopilot c

mode(s) pre-armed when the AP is off. This leaves the last-used roll mode (HDG, TRK, or
