Subsequent immediate button strokes will increment the vertical speed commanded either up or down at the rate of 100 ft/min per button press, or at the rate of approximately 300 ft/min per second if held continuously. If VS mode is active, the initial button stroke will bring up the commanded vertical speed in the display. The action of these buttons is dependent upon the vertical mode present when pressed.

This button will engage the autopilot in units with software prior to software version 03/01. If the ALT button is pressed with an established VS rate present, there will be altitude overshoot (approximately 10% of the VS rate), with the airplane returned positively to the reference altitude. The reference altitude is the altitude at the moment the ALT button is pressed. This mode provides tracking of the reference altitude. When pushed, will select the Altitude Hold mode.

ALTITUDE HOLD ( ALT) MODE SELECT BUTTON.

This mode functions similarly to the approach mode except that the autopilot response to LOC signals is reversed, and GS is disabled. When pushed, will arm the Back Course approach mode.

BACK COURSE APPROACH ( REV) MODE SELECTOR BUTTON.

APR mode is recommended for instrument approaches. This mode provides automatic beam capture and tracking of VOR, GPS, LOC, and Glideslope (GS) on an ILS, as selected for presentation on the HSI or CDI. NAV mode may also be used for front course LOC tracking when GS tracking is not desired. NAV mode is recommended for enroute navigation tracking.

The mode provides automatic beam capture and tracking of VOR, LOC or GPS as selected for presentation on the HSI or CDI. When pushed, will arm the navigation mode. Button can also be used to toggle between HDG and ROL modes. A new heading may be selected at any time and will result in the airplane turning to the new heading. When pushed, will arm the Heading mode, which commands the airplane to turn to and maintain the heading selected by the heading bug on either the DG or HSI. When illuminated, indicates failure of the roll axis and will disengage the autopilot and not allow engagement. For software version 03/01 and later, the AP button must be pressed and held for 0.25 seconds to engage the autopilot. When pressed again, will disengage the autopilot. The captured VS will be the vertical speed present at the moment of AP button press. The commanded vertical speed is displayed in the upper right corner of autopilot display area for three seconds after engagement or if either the UP or DN button is pressed. The autopilot will engage in the basic roll ( ROL) mode which functions as a wing leveler and in the vertical speed ( VS) hold mode. When pushed, engages the autopilot if all logic conditions are met.

AUTOPILOT ENGAGE/DISENGAGE ( AP) BUTTON.

When illuminated, indicates failure of the pitch axis and will disengage the autopilot when the failure occurs and not allow engagement of the pitch axis. The KAP 140 is a digital, panel-mounted autopilot system for light aircraft. KAP 140 Two Axis with Altitude Preselect Operation
