1. BENDIX KLN 94 GPS NAVIGATION SYSTEM

The FriendlyPanels KLN94 has two knobs and eleven buttons. The bottom left little
knob is only used to turn on/off the gauge.

The outer right knob is used to select the pages group that can be displayed in the
screen or to manage cursor. Inner right knob allows you moving trough pages inside a
group.

The KLN 94 uses a color LCD. In normal operation, the display screen is divided into
four segments. When the map page (NAV 4) is displayed the page bar is removed to
maximize the height of the map.

Figure 1

The top line of segment 1 always displays distance to the active waypoint. The identifier
of the active waypoint is usually displayed on the second line. In cases when the active
waypoint identifier is displayed on a segment 2 page, line 2 will display the current
groundspeed. The third line of segment 1 displays the desired track (DTK). When the
KLN 94 is in OBS mode of operation the OBS course is displayed on line 3. The
aircraft’s actual track (TK) over the ground is displayed on line 4.

Segment 2 shows aeronautical information in the form of pages, as described later
ahead.

Segment 3 displays specific page which type and number is shown on the page bar at
the bottom of the display. Seven page types are shown on the page bar, however, only
the selected page type is shown in reverse video (white characters on a blue
background). In figure above, the NAV1 page is being displayed in segment 2 and is
annunciated as such on the segment 3 page bar.

Segment 4 displays annunciations
associated with the operation of the KLN

94. Line 1 shows the WPT (waypoint
alert) annunciation when approaching
the active waypoint. Line 2 shows the
message prompt, a large “M”, when the
KLN 94 has a message for you to view
on the message page. Line 3 displays
