The   face   of   the   autopilot   has   a   display   for   showing   mode   and  

other  information  to  the  pilot.    Also  on  the  face  of  the  autopilot  there  
is  a  MODE  button,  ALT  button,  and  a  KNOB.      

Not   on   the   face   of   the   unit,   but   also   integral   pieces   of   the  

autopilot   system   are   the   control   wheel   steering   button   or   CWS  
button,  and  the  AP  LEVEL  button.  

Most   modes   and   features   of   the   autopilot   are   accessed   using  

MODE,  ALT,  and  KNOB.    

There   are   a   few   different   ways   to   utilize   the   MODE   and   ALT  

buttons,   one   is   a   momentary   press   and   release,   this   will   be   called  
“press”.    The  other  way  to  utilize  the  MODE  or  ALT  button,  is  to  press  
and   hold   the   button   until   the   display   changes,   this   will   be   called  
“press   and   hold”.     The   press   and   hold   function   requires  
approximately  2  seconds  for  the  hold.  

Similarly  to  the  MODE  and  ALT  buttons,  the  KNOB  has  press  and  

press  and  hold  functions.    The  knob  is  also  rotated  for  selecting  new  

values  for  data  entry.    The  rotation  will  be  called  “select”.  

Like  the  MODE,  ALT,  and  KNOB,  the  CWS  button  has  both  press  

and  press  and  hold  functions.  

The  AP  LEVEL  button  has  only  the  press  function.
