NOTE: In GPS mode, both active NAV frequen­cies are displayed in white indicating they are not active.

RADIO SELECTION

The NAV radio is selected with the CDI softkey lo-
cated on the PFD.
• When NAV1 radio is selected, a single green arrow labeled either ‘VOR1’ or ‘LOC1’ is displayed on the HSI.
• When NAV2 radio is selected, a double green arrow labeled either ‘VOR2’ or ‘LOC2’ is displayed on the HSI.
The active COM radio is selected with the audio pan­el COM1 MIC or COM2 MIC keys. COM1 MIC key activates the COM1 transceiver. COM2 MIC key acti­vates COM2.
Frequencies located in the active field are displayed in either green or white.
• An active frequency displayed in green indicates that the radio is selected on the audio panel (COM) or HSI (NAV).
• An active frequency displayed in white indicates that the radio is not selected on the audio panel (COM) or the HSI (NAV).

TUNING BOX

A light blue tuning box appears around the standby frequency field on both the PFD and MFD. It can be moved from one standby frequency field to another for tuning or radio selection by pressing the dual COM or NAV knob.
Frequencies located in the in either white or gray.
• The standby frequency appearing in the tuning box is white.
• The standby frequency that is not in the tuning box is gray.

COM or NAV knob transfers both the frequency tuning box and the Frequency Transfer Arrow between the radios.
NOTE: When a signal is received or transmitted, the Frequency Transfer Arrow is replaced by a white RX or TX indication.

RADIO INDICATORS

RX – When a COM signal is received, a white RX appears by the active COM frequency during signal reception.
TX – When a COM radio is keyed, a white TX appears by the active COM frequency during trans­mission.
ID – When the Morse code identifier is ON for a NAV radio, a white ID appears to the left of the active NAV frequency. The Morse code identifier is heard when a NAV radio is selected on the audio panel.

4.2 COM OPERATION

FREQUENCY SPACING

The G1000 COM radios can tune either 25 kHz spac­ing (118.000 to 136.975 MHz) or 8.33 kHz spacing (118.000 to 136.990 MHz) frequencies.
COM channel spacing is configured through the MFD on the System Setup Page of the AUX Page group.

VOLUME

COM radio volume level can be adjusted from 0 to 100% in increments of 3.25%, using the VOL/PUSH SQ knob located above the COM Frequency Transfer key. Turning the VOL/PUSH SQ knob clockwise increases volume, turning the knob counterclockwise decreases volume.
When adjusting volume level for a COM radio, volume level is displayed in place of the standby COM frequency. The COM1 or COM2 annunciator is replaced by the word VOLUME. Volume level remains in the COM Frequency window for two seconds after the change.

AUTOMATIC SQUELCH

Automatic squelch provides maximum sensitivity to weaker signals while canceling most localized noise sourc­es. Automatic squelch can be disabled for a COM radio by pressing the COM knob to select the desired COM sub-window, then by pressing the VOL/PUSH SQ knob.
When automatic squelch is disabled, mains continuously open and an RX indication appears while continuous noise is heard over the speaker and phones.

SWITCHING BETWEEN COM RADIOS

Pressing the dual COM knob transfers the frequency
tuning box between the COM1 and COM2 fields.
NOTE: When a different transceiver (COM MIC key) is selected on the audio panel, the frequency tuning box also transfers on both the PFD and MFD.
Pushing the dual COM knob switches the
tuning box from one COM radio to the other.

MANUALLY TUNING A COM FREQUENCY

COM frequency manual tuning is done with the dual
COM knob. The frequency is tuned in the standby field.
• The
MHz frequency digits are tuned with the large
COM knob.

TOGGLING COM FREQUENCIES

Pressing the COM Frequency Transfer key toggles the COM frequencies between the active and standby fields of the COM radio having the Frequency Transfer Arrow.
Pressing the COM Frequency Transfer
key toggles the COM frequencies.
