ADF, Automatic Direction Finder
The ADF, or Automatic Direction Finder, is an older type of a radio navigation instrument.
The needle indicates the relative position (bearing) of the NDB (Non Directional Beacon) to the nose of the aircraft.

This version contains one stepper motor to control the needle. The compass scale is adjustable, but this is not coupled with the Flight Simulator. The compass scale has, like the real instrument, no influence on the position of the needle.
The ADF is available as slave instrument. A free port on a master instrument and an Interface Box is needed (see General concept).
The instrument is illuminated by (2) leds.
