New software allows ap changes to be made on screen of 5400T. Had hoped to see manual update or a video on how to use most effectively. If that is not in the cards could you post an explanation. Thanks.

We are working on a tutorial for the new control schema.

A quick list would be

AP - Autopilot On-Off
FD - Flight Director On-Off
HDG - Roll based on heading bug hold
SRC - Change the source of the course
TRK - Roll based on GPS track hold
NAV - Roll based on Nav (Yellow armed, green coupled)
ALT - Vertical based on altitude bug hold
VNAV - Vertical based on Nav (Yellow armed, green coupled)
VS - Vertical rate based on Vertical Speed
IAS - Vertical rate based on Indicated Air Speed hold
UP - Nose up control for vertical modes (Change VS or IAS)
DN - Nose down control for vertical modes (Change VS or IAS)
VFPL - Vertical based on displays flight plan
​YAW - Yaw servo control On-On
180 - Perform 180 on heading / track
Level - Set roll and vertical to 0 roll and 0 vertical speed.

Thanks for the info. When you write the tutorial please remember that some of us are running version 12 on a non- touch AF-5600. Thanks.
