Navigation Display (ND)
INFORMATION COMMON TO ALL MODES
Range Scale
Each mode is capable of displaying a range scale from 10 to 320 NM, selected on the respective Captains
or First Officers EFIS control panel.
The maximum range from the aircraft position in the rose mode is half the selected range.
In the ARC mode, the range from the aircraft position to the outer edge of the scale is equal to the selected
range.
The range scale will be indicated on the ND display by white dashed circular lines with blue distance
markers.
Aircraft Symbol/Cross Track Error
This Aircraft Symbol indicates the current position and appears in the center of the ND
in the ROSE mode, at the bottom of the display in the ARC mode, and along the route at
.2R the appropriate location in the PLAN mode.
The Cross Track Error, the lateral deviation left or right of the active flight plan course, will
be displayed next to the aircraft symbol in nautical miles.
Aircraft Heading
The yellow line displays the aircrafts magnetic heading on the moving white compass
rose.
24
TRU
27 Small white triangles are fixed at 45° intervals on the compass rose.
30
TRU appears at the top of the compass rose if the display has changed from magnetic
heading to true heading.
The FCU selected heading appears as a blue triangle on the heading scale.
A green diamond below the appropriate track identifies the actual aircraft track.
The ground speed and true airspeed are displayed in the upper left-hand corner on the ND.
This information is furnished by the ADIRS.
The ground speed is operative on the ground and can assist in monitoring taxi speed.
The wind direction and speed are displayed below the GS and TAS.
The digital indication is based on true north.
The wind arrow indicates the wind direction based on magnetic north.The wind arrow
will appear when the velocity is greater than 2 knots.
ILS APP Approach message

The type of approach selected form the MCDU database, if any, is indicated in the top center
of the ND.
RNAV APP

Waypoint/Navaid Information
The upper right-hand corner of the ND will display navaid or waypoint information depending
on the ND mode selection.
When ROSE NAV ILS mode is selected, the ILS frequency course and identifiers are
displayed.
When ROSE NAV VOR is selected, the VOR frequency, selected course, and identifier
are displayed.
In ROSE NAV, ARC or PLAN modes, the TO waypoint is displayed in the upper right-
hand corner along with the track, distance, and ETA.
Chronometer Information
Each ND has an independent chronometer controlled by a CHRONO pb. The display will
appear and begin timing when the pb is pressed once. The indication is in minutes and
seconds from 0 to 59' 59" in hours and minutes from 1 H to 99 H 59'.
The elapsed time will stop when the CHRONO pb is pressed a second time and the
display will be removed when CHRONO is pressed a third time.
Navaid Information
When the VOR selector switch on the Captains of First Officers EFIS control panel is set to
VOR, the respective ND displays the bearing pointer and the following navaid information:
Type of navaid (VOR).
A single line bearing pointer for VOR 1 and a double line bearing pointer for VOR 2.
Navaid identification if the navaid is tuned. If the navaid is not tuned, the navaid fre-
quency is displayed.
DME.
Mode of tuning:
Nothing for a station tuned automatically by the FMGC.
M for a for manually tuned navaid on the MCDU RAD NAV page.
R for a remotely tuned navaid through the RMP. This procedure is used in the event
of a failure of both FMGCs or MCDUs.
If the navaid signal is lost, the ND stops displaying the associated data except for the
identification or frequency.

ROSE and ARC NAV MODES
ROSE and ARC modes provide the same information except the ARC mode provides only a 90° compass rose
view.
NAV Mode Symbols
Position where the aircraft will level-off at the FCU selected altitude. The same symbol will
indicate a level-off from a managed climb (CLB) or selected climb (OP CLB).
Position where the aircraft will level-off at the constrained altitude entered in the MCDU. The
managed CLB mode must be engaged for the altitude constraint symbol to appear and be
honored.
Position where the aircraft will level-off at the FCU selected altitude. The same symbol will
indicate a level-off from a managed decent (DES) or selected descent (OP DES).
Position where the aircraft will level-off at the constrained altitude entered in the MCDU. The
managed DES mode must be engaged for the altitude constraint symbol to appear and be
honored.
Start of climb with the CLB mode armed.
Start of climb with the CLB mode not armed.
Top of Descent or continue descent with DES armed.
Top of Descent or continue descent with DES not armed.
Intercept point where the aircraft is predicted to intercept the FMGS computed vertical descent
profile. The indicator is blue indicating the DES mode is engaged.
Intercept point where the aircraft will meet the FMGS computed vertical profile. The indicator is
white indicating the DES mode is not engaged.
Flight Plan Waypoint
FMGC Database Waypoint: Displayed when the waypoint pb is pressed on the EFIS control
panel.
TO Waypoint.
Speed Change
Indicates the point where the aircraft will initiate an automatic acceleration or deceleration
from current speed to new computed speed in case of SPD LIM, SPD CSTR, or HOLDING
SPD (including 250 knots below 10,000).
Deceleration Point
Indicates where the aircraft will initiate an automatic deceleration toward VAPP.
Managed NAV mode and managed speed must be engaged.

Altitude Constraints
Constraint is predicted to be met when the aircraft is in managed lateral and vertical
modes.
Constraint is predicted to be missed. In this situation the aircraft is in the managed

lateral and vertical modes; however, the FMGC will not be able to meet the altitude
constraint.
Constraint is not being considered by the FMGC.
Flight Plan Routes

The NAV modes can display the following flight plans.
A green line represents the Active Flight Plan.
Managed Mode: The course line will be continuous and depict the waypoints in
range that are yet to be overflown.
When the range selector is set to 160 or 320 NM, only the first waypoint of
a SID or the last waypoint of a STAR will be depicted.
A continuous blue line depicts the Missed Approach Procedure.
A dashed blue line depicts the Alternate Flight Plan until activated. Once
activated, the alternate flight plan is displayed in green.
If a flight plan offset is entered, the original flight plan course will be a
dashed green line and the offset course will be depicted as a continuous
green line.
Note: When flying an ILS approach the ND course will be depicted as a
continuous green line; however, course guidance is being provided by the
localizer signal. The FMA must be referenced to determine the active
navigation mode.
Selected Mode: If HDG is selected (FCU HDG knob pulled) the active flight plan
line will be dashed.
When the HDG mode active with NAV armed to intercept the FMGC
course, the ND will display the new active flight plan as a continuous green
line once the FMGC has computed the intercept. The portion of the flight
plan before the intercept, that will not be flown will be shown as a dashed
line.
A continuous white line depicts the Secondary Flight Plan. The ND will continue
to display the active flight plan and where common legs occur, the course line will
be a continuous green line.
A dashed yellow line represents th Temporary Flight Plan.
Airports
Airports included in flight plan:
If the runway is specified in the flight plan (departure or destination) it is
represented by the oriented runway symbol in white.
If the runway is not specified in the flight plan it is represented by a star and the
* KPHL identification is displayed in white.
The magenta star represents the airports that are displayed by pressing the APRTS
* KPIT pb on the EFIS control panel.
ILS Marker Beacon (Diamond Shape)

Navaids
The ND can display:
TACAN/DME
VOR
VOR/DME
NBD navaids from the database.
The color of the symbols will vary depending on its current status:
Green if the navaid is a current waypoint on the flight plan.
White if it is the TO waypoint.
Blue when the navaid is tuned for display either automatically by the
FMGC or manually through the MCDU.
Magenta when the navaid is not part of the flight plan and is displayed by
selecting the appropriate pb on the EFIS control panel.
Holding Pattern
The ND will display the holding pattern circuit when the hold is part of the active or next
leg. The holding pattern will be displayed with right or left turns as appropriate.
The ND will display an arc representing the holding pattern and the direction of the hold
when the hold is not part of the active or next leg.
Energy Circle
This symbol indicates the radius corresponding to the required distance to land from
present position. This symbol will be centered on the aircraft position and oriented to the
current track line and is only displayed in DES and APPR phase when a selected lateral
mode is engaged (i.e. heading).

Weather Radar Display
The weather radar display is depicted on the ND in any mode except PLAN. The selected ND range scale
will control the weather radar range.
The radar returns will appear in black, green, yellow, red or magenta depending on the precipitation
intensity. The antenna tilt angle will be displayed in the lower right-hand corner of the ND and is the angle
between the horizon and the radar beam axis. When manual calibration mode is selected, MAN appears
in green.
If the TERR ON ND is selected on, the ND displays the surrounding terrain from the stored database, and
the weather radar display will be suppressed.
