NOTE: With GPSS engaged and in Heading mode, the Heading bug will not control your autopilot heading. This is annunciated next to the HSI by the GPSS annunciation. The Heading bug may still be used for reference, but the autopilot will not control the aircraft via the heading bug.

5.6.5Flight Director Display

If autopilot flight director commands are interfaced to the G600, they will be presented as a single cue flight director on the PFD. Control of the flight director is accomplished via the autopilot/flight director controller; there are no pilot controls or adjustments for the flight director on the G600.

The G600 system limits the distance the flight director pitch commands may deviate from the aircraft attitude icon. In the event that the pitch command provided by the autopilot flight director is greater than the distance allowed by the G600, the command bars will be displayed at the maximum distance allowed by the G600. As the aircraft pitch changes to satisfy the command bars, the bars will continue to be displayed at the maximum distance from the aircraft attitude icon until the aircraft pitch deviation is within the command display limit.
