The EFIS can display an HSI when connected to a Nav radio, GPS, or GPS Navigator. The system has two main 
navigation needles; Course and Bearing. You can individually select the navigation source for each needle from any 
radio connected to the unit. If you have an SL-30 connected, you will also get a second bearing needle when the 
standby Nav frequency is enabled. The source label will indicate the radio type:
