7 System Start-up At system start, the engine and system instruments are displayed on the left side of the PFD in order to provide information necessary for the start-up sequence.

8 System Start-up Follow checklist carefully! Check standby battery per checklist. Master Switches ON PFD should come on and red Xs clear in about 15 seconds. AHRS should align after 45 seconds and Reversionary mode screen is displayed. Items powered by Avionics Bus 2 (such as NAV 2 and COM 2 will have red Xs until that bus is turned on.

9 System Start-up Annunciators should illuminate Low Volts will not illuminate if battery has more than adequate charge

24 Other PFD Softkeys XPDR Squawk code entry; mode selection (SBY ALT, ON), VFR, IDENT) Note GND in this mode, transponder will switch to ALT (Mode C) when the airplane accelerates to approximately 35 knots. IDENT Displays IDENT in XPDR status bar for 18 seconds and sends ID pulse

25 Other PFD Softkeys TMR/REF Key reference speeds and timer for approaches Note: DO NOT change the reference airspeeds!!

26 Other PFD Softkeys NRST Scrollable list of 25 nearest airports with basic information & frequencies ALERTS Use this key to acknowledge alerts and close window

27 PFD Color Coding Cyan Pilot adjustable items (e.g., freq. boxes) Green Active items (e.g, com/nav freqs & VHF.) Magenta GPS related Yellow Caution items (e.g., low vacuum) Red White Warning items (e.g., low oil pressure) Advisory or alert (e.g., airspace ahead)

28 Audio Unit Operation Powered on with Avionics Master Annunciators illuminate in self-test Returns to previous selections If GMA 1347 fails, built-in relay switches pilot s headset and MIC to Com 1 LED annunciators and backlighting controlled by G1000 CDU

29 Audio Unit Operation Transceivers Special Functions Marker Beacon Nav and Aux Radios Manual Squelch & Playback ICS Isolation Volume/Squelch Reversionary Mode

30 Audio Unit Operation Pilot may select ONE transmitter: Com1/MIC or Com2/MIC or Com3/MIC Corresponding receiver is automatically selected Additional receivers (right side) may be selected for monitoring Selection of MIC (left side) highlights selected frequency in GREEN on PFD and MFD

31 Audio Panel & PFD/MFD Keys Press double-arrow flipflop switch to move frequency from standby tuning box to active position Press appropriate key on audio panel to select COM1 or COM2. In this example: The COM1/MIC key on the left transmits. Press COM knob to move tuning box between COM1 and COM2 Active frequency displays in green; standby frequency displays in white and is bounded by the cyan tuning box. The COM 2 key on the right is selected for monitoring.

32 Audio Unit Operation - CAP CAP G1000 installations have two GMA 1347 audio panels. Only the TEL button is interconnected. May need manual squelch on right panel for good MIC opening. It is possible to transmit on two VHF radios simultaneously but critical communication may be blocked. Simultaneous transmission on VHF and FM is OK. Both panels may require manual squelch to break properly.

33 Audio Unit Operation - CAP disabled CAP FM Radio NOTE: CAP aircraft have two audio panels that are independent of each other. Becker Red button allows manual selection of Reversionary Mode; displays primary flight instruments and engine/airframe data on both displays CAP anomaly: red button on right audio panel does not work disabled Press no buttons to let everyone hear everything... Press PILOT or COPILOT to isolate one or the other Press both PILOT and COPILOT isolation buttons to isolate the crew

34 Other CAP Anomalies Seat Button selects who has the active PTT for second audio panel. Co-Pilot is Seat 2, Scanner behind Pilot is Seat 3. FM/UHF switch must be in FM - no UHF installed.
