1.2 GCU 476 CONTROLS
The indicators above the PFD, MFD, NAV, and
COM Keys are lit when the respective control mode
key is pressed. The unit is in MFD Control Mode by
default, until the PFD Control Mode selection key is
pressed.
Many of the controls duplicate the controls on the
PFD and MFD. The discussions later in this manual
are centered around using the controls on the PFD
and/or MFD. When reading these discussions, keep
in mind that many of the operations may also be
performed on the GCU 476.
