unit can also be seen in the other. Initiating
a direct-to course to a waypoint on one unit
also initiates a direct-to course to the same
waypoint on the other unit.
If one unit is set for automatic crossfill and
the other is set for manual crossfill, then only
the auto unit automatically sends data to the
manual unit. In this configuration, the auto
unit could be thought of as the master unit.
• Manual Crossfill Operation: If manual
operation is desired, the pilot must invoke
all transfers from that unit. When a unit is
configured for automatic transfer, a manual
transfer can also be done on command. If
either of the messages “data transfer error” or
“data transfer cancelled” are received during
an automatic or manual transfer, the pilot
must force another transfer.
