Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question is related to avionics, specifically the function of flight director (FD) in standby mode. Standby mode indicates that the FD is not currently active but can be made available for use.

The RMT SBY switch is located on the corresponding Mode Control Panel (MCP) or autopilot panel in the aircraft's cockpit.
