Would you give a CFR reference for me on this?
Thanks,

"Not authorized" means there is no authorization.
The PTS sets forth, as stated below, what "shall" and "must" be done,
and what "may" be done at the discretion of the examiner.
Nowhere does the PTS say that the examiner "may" dictate what pages of
a GPS may be viewed during an operation, any more than he "may", for
example, set an OBS or HSI to his preferred setting, rather than what
the appplicant wishes.
If you have information to the contrary, I would find it interesting.
General Information
The Flight Standards Service of the Federal Aviation Administration
(FAA) has developed this practical test as the standard that shall be
used by FAA inspectors and designated pilot examiners when
conducting instrument rating—airplane, helicopter, and powered lift
practical tests, and instrument proficiency checks for all aircraft.
Thispractical test standard (PTS) shall also be used for the
instrument portion of the commercial pilot—airship practical test.
Instructors are expected to use this PTS when preparing applicants for
practical tests.
Applicants should be familiar with this PTS and refer to these
standards during their training
This PTS sets forth the practical test requirements for the addition
of an instrument rating to a pilot certificate in airplanes,
helicopters, and powered-lift aircraft.
Information considered directive in nature is described in this PTS
book in terms, such as “shall” and “must,” indicating the actions are
mandatory. Guidance information is described in terms, such as
“should” and “may,” indicating the actions are desirable or
permissive, but not mandator
