Default Garmin 530 waas

Went flying with a firend of mine who has this installed in his
aircraft.

Question When we have the auopilot on with Nav mode clicked

On the 530 we have GPS in the window, shouldn't the aitpilot follow
the 530 Flight plan or direct to or approach selected course?


Well it did not had to use Hdg mode in order to stear the plane

Any ideas how it should work? I know when you are in VLOC mode that
the Navs are are sending the signal for autpilot correct and GPS it
is the 530 unit?

Is this correct?
