Autopilot Installation and Configuration
6-30 EFIS-D100 Installation Guide
STEP 10 – VERIFY OVERALL AP PERFORMANCE
Engage both roll and pitch servos and execute a number of AP-controlled changes of heading,
altitude, and combinations of the two and observe the overall aircraft performance under AP
control. There may be some interaction between the various Pitch Servo and Roll Servo settings.
Repeat portions of steps 9 and 10 as necessary to fully “dial in” the AP for overall smooth flight
performance under AP control.
AP74 Configuration
If you have the AP74 installed, you may configure the way it controls the autopilot, barometer
setting, and bug values. This configuration is done in the SETUP > AP > AP74/76 SETTINGS
menu. The following sections describe the configuration in this menu.
VALUE KNOB CONFIGURATION
The VALUE knob changes the BARO, ALT bug, and HDG bug settings and is configured in the
-VALUE KNOB- portion of this menu.
The VALUE knob can be configured to require an initial push before rotating the knob has any
effect (REQUIRE PUSH: YES / NO).
The default mode of the VALUE knob is configured by setting FIRST ACTION: to ALT, HDG,
or BARO. This configures whether the altitude bug, heading bug, or barometer is the first action
to be adjusted by the knob.
If REQUIRE PUSH is set to YES:
 The first push of the VALUE knob activates the FIRST ACTION mode (ALT, HDG or
BARO) and displays a “pop-up” window indicating the current mode and value. Rotating
the knob within 5 seconds changes the value of the FIRST ACTION mode. A second
push of the VALUE knob within 5 seconds after rotating the knob de-activates the
VALUE knob and closes the pop-up window. If there is no further action (either a knob
push or knob rotation), the VALUE knob automatically de-activates (times out) after 5
seconds and closes the pop-up window.
 If, after the first push of the VALUE knob, the knob is not rotated, subsequent pushes
cycle through the 2 nd and 3 rd settings in the rotation, in the order BARO, HDG, ALT,
.
If REQUIRE PUSH is set to NO:
 Rotating the VALUE knob changes the value of the FIRST ACTION mode (ALT, HDG,
or BARO) and displays a pop-up window indicating the current mode and value. Pushing
the VALUE knob again within 5 seconds of the last knob rotation closes the pop-up
window.
 Pushing the VALUE knob without first rotating it cycles through the remaining modes
(not chosen by FIRST ACTION above). Pushing the VALUE knob cycles through these
modes in the order BARO, ALT, HDG, .
 If there is no further action (either a knob push or knob rotation) within 5 seconds, the
pop-up window automatically closes.
