Pitch and Roll Trim Adjustments Criteria

Table 5- 4

NOTES: 1. Depending on the installation, not all of the adjustments shown in table 5- 4 are available. If STAB TRIM ENABLE programming strap is open, only the roll offset adjustment is available. If STAB TRIM ENABLE is grounded, all four adjustments are available. Consult the installation configuration information for details.

2.After any adjustment procedure is completed, monitor the ground returns displayed by the radar during several pitch and roll maneuvers. Verify that the ground returns stay somewhat constant during changes in aircraft orientations. If not, repeat the adjustment procedure.

3.After the trim adjustment feature is selected, more than one adjustment can be made. They are available in the sequence shown in table 5- 4, and can be done in the sequence of first finishing one adjustment, then proceeding to do the next by pushing the STAB button.
