6.0 MESSAGE PAGE
Whenever the KLN 90B determines that there is a situation that requires
the pilot’s attention, the message prompt (MSG) begins flashing in inverse
video at the bottom of the display just to the right of the mode of operation.
A remote message annunciator may also be installed in the aircraft instru-
ment panel. The message should be viewed at the pilot’s earliest oppor-
tunity because the unit may be alerting the pilot of some condition of
immediate concern. To view the message, press M. The Message
page, which takes the whole width of the display, will appear and show the
new message. Appendix B of the KLN 90B Pilot’s Guide contains a listing
of all of the Message page messages and their meanings. It is possible
that several messages are displayed at one time on the Message page.
The newest message appears first and the rest in reverse chronological
order.
After reading the message, press M again to return to the pages which
were previously in view. If all of the messages can not be displayed on
one Message page, repeated presses of M will show the other mes-
sages before returning to the pages which were previously being viewed.
Whenever a message condition exists which requires a specific action by
the pilot, the message prompt will remain on but not flashing.
