  1. Introduction to Aspen EFD 1000 and Garmin GMX 200

  2. Objectives / Content • Provide introduction to basic functions of: • Aspen EFD 1000 primary flight display • Garmin GMX 200 multi-function display • Garmin GNS 430 Navigator

  3. Syllabus – Aspen EFD 1000 • Aspen EFD 1000 PFD • Read and interpret AI and tapes for ASI, ALT, and VSI • Set HDG, ALT, BARO • Set Nav Source • Set CRS. IAS and BARO • Read and interpret e-HSI display, including color scheme • Use soft keys, including range

  4. Syllabus – Garmin GMX 200 • Garmin GMX 200 MFD • Use FN key to select map • Use MENU/ENT and soft keys to configure maps as needed • Use in/out soft keys to set map scale and range

  5. Syllabus – Garmin GNS 430 • Garmin GNS 430 Navigator • Set and select frequencies for communication & navigation • Enter a flight plan • Edit a flight plan (add, modify, delete waypoints) • Navigate through chapters and pages • IFR operations • Select IAPs • Load and activate IAPs

  7. Important!! • There are significant differences between the Aspen EFD1000 PFD / Garmin GMX 200 suite and the G1000 or GNS430/530 avionics that CAP pilots are accustomed to using. • Do not assume that anything you know about the G1000 or GNS 430/530 will translate to the Aspen EFD1000 and Garmin GMX 200.

  8. N4813C Panel

  9. N4813C Panel • Equipment includes: • Aspen EFD 1000 primary flight display (PFD) with separate power switch • PS audio panel with Comm Swap switch • Garmin GMX 200 multi-function display (MFD) • Garmin GNS 430 moving map nav/com • Garmin SL30 nav/com radio • DOES NOT HAVE: • Becker • SAR software

  20. Aspen EFD 1000 • Right knob home state is HDG. • Also used to set : • ALT • BARO • IAP minimums (MIN). • Press to cycle HDG-ALT-BARO-MIN • From inactive home state (HDG in cyan): • Press 1x to set HDG • Press 2x to set ALT • Press 3x to set BARO • Press 4x to MIN

  21. Aspen EFD 1000 • Left knob home state is CRS. • Also used to set : • IAS • Press to cycle CRS - IAS • From inactive home state (CRS in cyan): • Press 1x to set CRS • Press 2x to set IAS

  24. Garmin GMX 200

  25. Garmin GMX 200 • FN (Function) Key: • “Home” state shows: • MSG • MAP • IFR • VFR • Choose MAP • Custom Map option provides the greatest flexibility to configure as needed.

  26. Garmin GMX 200 • Basic setup sequence: • FN should show home state – select MAP. • Select Custom Map. • Adjust the zoom/pan using the in/out soft keys at the bottom of the display. • Press MENU key to activate soft-key map configuration options.

  27. Garmin GMX 200 Menu/ENT Key activates on-screen display of the options available via each of the six “soft keys” on the right side of the GMX 200 bezel. Options displayed are context-sensitive – i.e., dependent upon the selected map.

  28. Garmin GMX 200 • Options displayed through soft keys have three possible states: • Blue - selected • Gray – partially selected • Black – not selected

  32. Issues, Cautions, Recommendations

  33. Issues, Cautions, Recommendations • Aspen EFD 1000 PFD can be extremely hard to read due to type size and sheer volume of information presented. • Use range key to set flight plan display on navigation (lower) half of PFD to a readable scale.

  34. Issues, Cautions, Recommendations • Garmin GMX 200 is not a “native” Garmin box; do not expect it to look or function the same way as the G1000 MFD or GNS 430/530. • Recommended selection is “custom map,” since pilot’s ability to configure “VFR” and “IFR” maps is limited. • Use range to make the MFD map more readable. • Think of FN (function) key as the “home” or “escape” key. FN brings up the base menus; side hot keys are context sensitive. • Take note of map orientation setting – it will not automatically match that of the PFD. Suggest using “TRK UP” on MFD to eliminate confusion from different map orientations on PFD and MFD.

  35. Garmin GNS 430 • Basic “Garminology” • Anatomy of the Display • Chapters and Pages • Flight Plan Entry • Flight Plan Editing

  36. Organizational Scheme Mechanical Scheme • “Chapters” • “Pages” • Menus • Dual concentric knobs • Push to center, sync, toggle • Cursor first! Garmin GNS 430

  37. Pushing center moves tuning box b/w com and nav Pushing center activates cursor Garmin GNS 430 Com radio flip-flop Com radio volume/squelch Range control Direct to Nav radio volume/ID Context-sensitive options “Yes” or “forward” Nav radio flip-flop “No” or “back”

  38. Garmin GNS 430 • “Dual concentric knobs” • Large outer knob for MHz • Small inner knob for KHz Press and hold 2 seconds for default NAV page

  39. Garmin GNS 430 Selects IAPs, DPs, STARs Selects nav source (GPS / VLOC) Suspends “leg” (auto-sequence) mode Message Flight Plan

  45. Direct-to WPT Direct-to WPT Garmin GNS 430 Direct-to a WPT not in the flight plan Direct-to a WPT already in flight plan

  46. Garmin GNS 430 • “Curse” – press the right inner knob to activate the cursor. • Turn the large (outer) right knob to position the cursor over the waypoint you wish to edit, or on the waypoint just below the place where you wish to add a waypoint. • Turn the large (outer) right knob to move the cursor. • Turn the small (inner) right knob to change the character.
