(3) VLOC Flip-fop Key – Used to swap the active andstandby VLOC requencies (i.e., make the selected standbyrequency active).(4) VLOC Volume Knob – Controls audio volume orthe selected VOR/Localizer requency. Press momentarilyto enable/disable the ident tone.(5) Small Let Knob (COM/VLOC) – Used to tunethe kilohertz (kHz) value o the standby requency or

the communications transceiver (COM) or the VLOCreceiver, whichever is currently selected by the tuningcursor. Press this knob momentarily to toggle the tuningcursor between the COM and VLOC requency elds.

(11) ENT Key – Used to approve an operation or completedata entry. It is also used to conrm inormation duringpower on.

(12) Small Right Knob – Used to select pages withinthe page groups. Press this knob momentarily to displaythe on-screen cursor. The cursor allows the pilot to enterdata and/or make a selection rom a list o options. Whenentering data, the small right knob is used to select thedesired letter or number and the large right knob is usedto move to the next character space. The small right knob

is also used to move the target pointer up (turn clockwise)or down (counterclockwise) when the map panningunction is active.(13) Large Right knob – Used to select page groups:NAV, WPT, AUX, or NRST. With the on-screen cursorenabled, the large right knob allows the pilot to movethe cursor about the page. The large right knob is alsoused to move the target pointer right (turn clockwise) or

let (counterclockwise) when the map panning unctionis active.

ACTIVATE AN APPROACH



GNS 530(A) Quck Rrnc 19190-00181-01 Rev. G

5) Turn the large right knob to highlight ‘Load?’or ‘Activate?’ and press the ENT Key. ‘Load?’adds the procedure to the ight plan withoutimmediately using it or navigation guidance.This allows the pilot to continue navigating the

original ight plan, but keeps the procedureavailable on the Active Flight Plan Page orquick activation when needed.

6) For precision approaches and some non-precision approaches, a reminder windowappears indicating that GPS guidance onsuch approaches is strictly or monitoring only

— use the VLOC receivers and external CDI(or HSI) or primary navigation. To confrm thisreminder, highlight ‘Yes?’ and press the ENT Key.

Not all approaches in the database are approved or GPSuse. As the pilot selects an approach, a ‘GPS’ designationto the right o the procedure name indicates the procedurecan be fown using the GPS receiver. Some proceduresdo not have this designation, meaning the GPS receivermay be used or supplemental navigation guidance only.

ILS approaches, or example, must be fown by tuning the VLOC receiver to the proper requency and coupling the VLOC receiver to the external CDI (or HSI).

A selected approach may be activated or loaded. Oncean approach is selected, it may be activated or navigationrom the Procedures Page. Activating the approach

overrides the ‘enroute’ portion o the active fight plan,proceeding directly to the ‘approach’ portion (or a ullapproach, directly to the initial approach x). Activatingthe approach also initiates automatic CDI scaling transitionas the approach progresses.

In many cases, it may be easiest to ‘Load’ the ullapproach while still some distance away, enroute to thedestination airport. Later, i vectored to nal, use theollowing steps to select ‘Activate Vector-To-Final’—whichmakes the inbound course to the nal approach x (FAF)waypoint active. Otherwise, activate the ull approachusing the ’Activate Approach?’ option.

Activating an approach:

1) With an approach loaded in the active ight

plan, press the PROC Key to display theProcedures Page.

2) Turn the large right knob to highlight ‘ActivateApproach?’ and press the ENT Key.

The ‘Activate Vector-To-Final?’ option allows the pilotto activate the nal course segment o the approach. Thisoption assumes the pilot will receive vectors to the FAFand provides guidance to intercept the nal course, beorereaching the FAF.

GUideLiNeS foR fLyiNG AN AppRoACh

Due to the variety o available approach procedures,the specic steps required will vary according to theapproach selected. Keep in mind the ollowing whilefying the approach:

• Selecting the destination airport as the lastwaypoint in the active fight plan, or using theDirect-to Key ensures that the desired waypointwill automatically appear when choosing the‘Select Approach?’ option rom the ProceduresPage. Otherwise, the airport should be selectedrst, then the approach procedure.

• As the aircraft progresses to each approachwaypoint, a waypoint alert message (‘NEXTDTK # # #º’) will appear along the bottom o thedisplay (see page 15).

• Turn advisories (‘TURN TO # # #º’) will appearalong the bottom o the display (see page 15)when the pilot should begin a course change (via

a standard rate turn).• For GPS-based approaches, receiver autonomous

integrity monitoring (RAIM) monitors satelliteconditions and alerts the pilot using an ‘INTEG’or ‘WARN’ annunciation at the bottom let cornero the display (see page 15) i protection limitscannot be maintained. I this occurs, the GPS

receiver should not be used or primary navigationguidance. Revert to an alternate navigationsource, or select an alternate destination airport.

• Within 30 nm of the destination airport, CDIscaling will transition rom 5.0 nm (enroutemode, ‘ENR’) to 1.0 nm (terminal mode, ‘TERM’)or when leaving the departure airport, rom 1.0 to5.0 nm. Within 2.0 nm o the nal approach x,GPS-based approaches will see a second transitionrom 1.0 to 0.3 nm (approach mode, ‘APR’).

• A ‘START PROC TRN’ prompt will appear alongthe bottom o the display to advise the pilotwhen the aircrat is at a sae distance to initiate aprocedure turn. The procedure turn is displayedon the Map Page, but guidance through the turnitsel is not provided.

• Alerts for proper holding pattern entry (e.g.,‘HOLD DIRECT’) are displayed along thebottom o the display. Waypoint sequencing isautomatically suspended (indicated by ‘SUSPdirectly above the OBS Key) at the holdingwaypoint. Press the OBS Key again to return

to automatic waypoint sequencing. For coursereversals, waypoint sequencing is suspendedor one trip around the holding pattern only(ater which it will return to automatic waypointsequencing).

FLYING THE MISSED APPROACH



GNS 530(A) Quck Rrnc 21190-00181-01 Rev. G

• The CDI will guide the pilot through a DME arc. Just keep the needle centered to fy along the arc. When using an autopilot, the course select on the

CDI (or HSI) must be periodically updated withthe desired track (DTK).

• When crossing the missed approach point, ‘SUSP’will appear above the OBS Key, indicating thatautomatic sequencing o waypoint is suspended atthe missed approach point, and a ‘rom’ indicationwill appear on the CDI (or HSI).

Flying a missed approach:1) Press the OBS Key. The next waypoint in

the approach (MAHP; in this case ‘SWARM’

intersection) is automatically oered as thedestination waypoint.

2) Follow the missed approach procedures, aspublished on the approach plate, or properclimb and heading instructions.

3) An alert message along the bottom o thedisplay recommends entry procedures or the

holding pattern (e.g., ‘HOLD TEARDROP’).When lying the holding pattern, a timerappears on the Deault NAV Page. The timerautomatically resets on the outbound side othe hold when the aircrat turns abeam thehold waypoint. The timer again resets as thepilot turns inbound (within approximately 30°o the inbound course). This allows use ostandard timing (typically one minute) to ythe inbound and outbound legs o the hold.

4) The GNS 530 provides course guidance onlyon the inbound side o the holding pattern.
