B. ADF Indicator
Figure 2 shows the Bendix/King KI 227 ADF indicator. It is located in the left-hand section of the instrument panel.
% The non-slaved ADF indicator has the following features:

%) Lubber line. It indicates magnetic heading of the airplane.

%) Bearing pointer. It indicates magnetic bearing to the station.

%) HDG knob. This knob rotates the compass card.

% The slaved ADF indicator has the following additional features:
%) Slaved compass card. It derives its heading input from the gyro compass system. Refer to
% Section 34-28 for details about the gyro compass system.

%) SYNC knob instead of HDG knob. The compass card is synchronized to the HSI compass card
% by rotating the SYNC knob until the heading matches that of the HSI.
