1.4.1Pilot Controls

The GDU 620 controls have been designed to simplify operation of the system and minimize workload and the time required to access functionality. Controls are located on the PFD and MFD bezels and are comprised of a PFD knob, MFD dual concentric knobs, bezel keys, and soft keys.

1.4.1.1PFD Knob

Turning the PFD knob adjusts the values for the mode selected by the PFD bezel keys, such as, Heading (HDG), Course (CRS), Altitude (ALT), Vertical Speed (V/S), and Barometric Setting (BARO). The values are shown in a window to the left of the HSI. Pressing the PFD knob reverts to the default value of the selected mode.
