Hi,

Got a question concerning manual tuning of RMP on the A320.

If RMP 1 is tuned to an ILS (controls also RMP 2 ILS), can RMP 2 be tuned to a VOR (i.e. to get a DME reading?

BACK UP TUNING

The CAPT RMP controls VOR 1 and ADF 1.
The F/O RMP controls VOR 2 and ADF 2.
Either RMP controls both ILSs.

DME

The aircraft has two DMEs.
The frequency that is automatically set on the DME corresponds to the one that is set on the VOR or ILS.

When the flight crew uses an RMP to turn an ILS/DME, the PFDs do not display the DME distance.

So we can set ILS on RMP 1 and VOR 2 on RMP 2. We will get VOR DME.
