Note 1: The (“ ”) or (“ ”) indication will

appear on the display when your aircraft is off the de-

sired course.

Note 2: When your heading is correct, the ABCS func-

tion may be more useful than the course input option

 The Course Deviation Arrow points to the right when

your aircraft is off course to the left, and it points to

the left when your aircraft is off course to the right.

ABCS Mode

In the CDI mode, the Auto Bearing Center System

(ABCS) adds or subtracts the number of degrees indi-

cated by the CDI from the Omni Bearing Selector

(OBS).

Note 1: To get back on course, fly right more than the

number of degrees indicated by the Course Deviation Ar-

row.

Note 2: If the overflow indicator “” appears on the right

side, select a heading plus 10 degrees to the desired course;

if the overflow indicator “” appears on the left side, se-

lect a heading minus 10 degrees.
