2. System Description
The G1000 NXi system components described in this section are additions or updates to
existing components on the Embraer Phenom 100. This section briefly describes the function of
these components.
2.1 Equipment Descriptions
2.1.1 GCU 475
The GCU 475 controller is shown in Figure 2-1. This is an updated version of the existing GCU
475 controller. The controller is updated with improved joystick function. This is a drop-in
replacement.
2.1.2 GDU 1250A
The GDU 1250A display unit is shown in Figure 2-2. The GDU 1250A is used as primary flight
displays (PFDs) and multifunction display (MFD), mounted in the cockpit. The GDU 1250As are
an update to the existing GDU 1240As that were originally installed. The new displays have the
same overall dimensions as the previous generation hardware, with physical controls and
labeling being identical to the previous versions. The new GDU 1250A displays contain a new
LED backlight, and updated electronics, including a multi-core microprocessor.
Electronic Checklist
The Electronic Checklists (ECL) function allows the user to view and interact with aircraft
checklists. The Checklist contents are displayed on the GDUs and the checklist control is
performed using the GCU 475. The Garmin Checkset tool is provided by Garmin at no charge to
the aircraft operator to generate and edit the custom checklist files which are saved in the .gcl
format.
NOTE
For the G1000 NXi update, the checklist has to be saved as a “.gcl” file for
the checklist function to work.
The Checkset tool can be downloaded from the Fly.Garmin website under the Tools menu
(https://fly.garmin.com/fly-garmin/). The checklist is created or edited by the OEM/End user
without involvement from Garmin. Once the electronic checklist is created by the OEM/end user,
it is then downloaded onto an SD card and inserted into the top or bottom MFD card slot. Upon
power-up, the G1000 system checks the MFD SD cards for any checklist files and then
transfers the electronic checklist to the GDU internal memory. Once the Checklist is transferred
to the GDU, the SD card containing the checklist files can be removed and is no longer
required.
Please note that operational usage of the checklist file may require regulatory approval. The
OEM/Operator is expected to obtain the required approval.

2.1.3 GMA 1360D (optional)
The GMA 1360D audio panel is shown in Figure 2-3. This unit replaces the GMA 1347D audio
panel and there are two per aircraft. The GMA 1360D brings 3D audio and Bluetooth
connectivity.
2.1.4 GTX 345R (optional)
The GTX 345R transponder is shown in Figure 2-4. The GTX 345R replaces the existing #1
GTX 33 w/ES Mode S transponder with a GTX 345R ADS-B transponder when there is only one
transponder on the aircraft, or when a GTX 33DR is in the #2 transponder position. The GTX
345R provides ADS-B Out. The GTX 345R also provides ADS-B In for TIS-B and air-to-air
traffic and FIS-B weather data to the G1000 NXi system for display to the flight crew.
2.1.5 GTX 345DR (optional)
The GTX 345DR transponder is shown in Figure 2-5. The GTX 345DR replaces the existing #2
GTX 33D w/ES Mode S transponder (if installed) with a GTX 345DR ADS-B transponder when
there is a GTX 33 in the #1 transponder position. The GTX 345DR is a dual-link diversity ADSB In receiver, capable of receiving 1090 MHz and 978 MHz Universal Access Transceiver (UAT)
data. The GTX 345DR’s datalink provides traffic (TIS-B and air-to-air) and weather (FIS-B) data
for display on the PFD’s and MFD.
2.1.6 FS 510
The FS 510 (Flight Stream 510) wireless data card is shown in Figure 2-6. The FS 510 is an
SD card that installs into the MFD in the aircraft cockpit. The FS510 offers the addition of Wi-Fi
and Bluetooth connectivity for activities such as flight plan transfers and data output to carry-on
devices such as tablets and electronic flight bags. This data may be in the form of GPS
information, weather, aircraft traffic, or other items for flight crew use.
2.1.7 GWX 75 (Optional)
The optional GWX 75 weather radar is shown in Figure 2-7. The GWX 75 replaces the existing
weather radar and provides turbulence detection and ground clutter suppression, not available
with the GWX 68.
2.1.8 GDL 69A SXM (Optional)
The optional GDL 69A SXM receiver is shown in Figure 2-8. The GDL 69A SXM replaces the
existing GDL 69 XM receiver and is required if either optional GTX 345R or a GTX 345DR
transponder is installed in the aircraft. The GDL 69A SXM unit provides the same functions and
interfaces as the legacy GDL 69A it replaces and is designed to be compatible with the updated

2.4 Electrical Bonding
For the purposes of this STC, aircraft ground reference definitions vary according to airframe
type, as defined in Table 2-2. Refer to the periodic test and reconditioned resistance values
corresponding to these ground reference definitions when performing the equipment bonding
tests in Section 4.5.
The periodic test value is the value allowed during the bonding checks specified in Section 4.5.
The reconditioned value is the value allowed on initial installation or if the bond must be
reworked if the periodic test value is exceeded.
Refer to SAE ARP 1870 Section 5 when surface preparation is required to achieve electrical
bond.
NOTE
Bonding checks are performed with harness connectors connected for all
equipment except for the GWX 75 (If installed). GWX 75 bonding checks
are to be accomplished with the harness connectors disconnected.

2.4.1 Consideration for Untreated or Bare Dissimilar Metals
The correct material finish is important when mating untreated or bare dissimilar metals.
Materials should be galvanically compatible. When corrosion protection is removed to make an
electrical bond any exposed area after the bond is completed should be protected again.
Additional guidance can be found in SAE ARP 1870 Section 5. Typical electrical bonding
preparation examples are shown in Figure 2-10, Figure 2-11, and Figure 2-12.

2.4.2 Preparation of Aluminum Surfaces
The following general procedure is recommended to prepare an aluminum surface for proper
electrical bonding.
1. Clean grounding location with solvent.
2. Remove non-conductive films or coatings from the grounding location.
3. Apply a chemical conversion coat such as Alodine 1200 to the bare metal.
4. Once the chemical conversion coat is dry, clean the area.
5. Install bonding equipment at grounding location.
6. After bond is complete, if any films or coatings were removed from the surface, reapply a
suitable film or coating to the surrounding area within 24 hours.
After satisfactory electrical bond is achieved, when it has been necessary to remove any highresistance protective coating, the area from which the coating has been removed should be
refinished with the same finish as is on the rest of the part within 24 hours. In cases where the
parts come in with certain areas spot-faced, or if there is no finish on the part (bare metal), apply
conformal coating over the bond joint and hardware per MIL-I-46058 or clear lacquer per TT-L20A to facilitate future inspection. Refer to the model specific Aircraft Maintenance Manual or
Standard Practices Manual for surface protection requirements applicable to affected areas.
The correct material finish is important when mating untreated or bare dissimilar metals. They
should be galvanically compatible. When corrosion protection is removed to make an electrical
bond, any exposed area after the bond is completed should be protected again. Additional
guidance can be found in SAE ARP 1870 Section 5.
For a more detailed procedure, refer to SAE ARP 1870 Sections 5.1 and 5.5.

3. Control and Operation
3.1 Configuration Mode Overview
Throughout this document, references are made to the PFD1, PFD2, and/or MFD being in
configuration mode. The configuration mode exists to provide the avionics technician with a
means of configuring, checking, and calibrating various G1000 Nxi sub-systems.
Troubleshooting and diagnostics information can be viewed in this mode.
To start the G1000 Nxi system in configuration mode, follow these steps;
1. With the G1000 Nxi system off, open the MFD PWR 1, MFD PWR 2, PFD 1 and PFD 2
circuit breakers.
2. In accordance with AFM electrical system recommendation, connect external power to
the aircraft and energize the battery electrical busses.
3. Press and hold the ENT key on PFD 2 (copilot) and close the PFD 2 circuit breaker.
4. Release the ENT key after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner of
PFD 2.
5. Press and hold the #12 (far right) softkey on the MFD and close the MFD PWR 1 circuit
breaker.
6. Release the #12 softkey after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner
of MFD.
7. Press and hold the ENT key on PFD 1 (pilot) and close the PFD 1 circuit breaker.
8. Release the ENT key after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner of
PFD 1.
IMPORTANT
The Configuration Mode contains certain pages and settings that are
critical to aircraft operation and safety. These pages are protected and
cannot be modified unless the technician is properly authorized and
equipped. Most protected page content is viewable to allow system
awareness for troubleshooting.
NOTE
If the specific procedure requires an SD card to be in the top slot of the
PFD/MFD, this card must be inserted prior to applying power to the
PFD/MFD. Any time a card is inserted, the power to the PFD/MFD must
be cycled.
If a software loader card is inserted in the top slot of the display before it is
powered on, the display will automatically enter configuration mode and the
technician does not need to press and hold a softkey at power-on.
For a complete description and breakdown of each Configuration Mode page, refer to the
G1000 System Maintenance Manual listed in Table 1-2.

3.1.1 SET>ACTV Configuration
Throughout the configuration mode pages, there are SET and ACTIVE columns for input/output
settings and other parameters.
SET: Refers to a setting or group of settings that reside in PFD Internal Memory and/or the
Master Configuration Module.
ACTIVE: Refers to an ‘active’ setting or parameter currently being used by the LRU. LRUs
store the ‘active’ settings within internal memory.
Data can be manually copied from one column to the other (and consequently from PFD
memory to the LRU memory and vice-versa) by using the following two softkeys, when
available:
• SET>ACTV (read ‘Set to Active’) softkey: Allows the installer to send the information in
the SET column (data stored in the master config module) to the ACTV column (data
used by LRU).
• ACTV>SET (read ‘Active to Set’) softkey: Causes the LRUs current settings to be
copied to the master configuration module as SET items.
CAUTION
The ACTV>SET softkey must be used with caution. If an improperly
configured unit is installed, this softkey causes the wrong configuration to
replace the correct aircraft configuration.
In the first example shown in Figure 3-1 the SET columns do not match the ACTIVE columns.
The inequality between SET and ACTIVE indicates a configuration mismatch. By pressing the
SET>ACTV softkey, this copies the SET column to the LRU unit’s configuration memory. The
settings then become the ACTIVE settings for the LRU being configured.

Embraer Phenom P100 Revision 4
Page 21
Figure 3-1, SET>ACTV Diagram
When troubleshooting the system, technicians can look for inequalities between SET and
ACTIVE columns. Certain problems can be resolved simply by pressing the SET>ACTV
softkey, which reloads settings to the specific LRU from the PFD. (Note that this can also be
accomplished by reloading the configuration files for the LRU. Section 7 describes this process
for each LRU).
A blank active column, as shown in Figure 3-2, represents loss of communication between the
display and the particular unit. See Section 5 for more details on troubleshooting.

3.1.2 Configuration Prompts
When configuration settings are changed, the technician receives on-screen prompts and/or
confirmations such as those shown in Figure 3-3.
Figure 3-3, Configuration Status
3.1.3 Data Transmission Indicators
Several configuration screens utilize an indicator light system to show discrete (ON/OFF) data
and/or hardware component status. Unless otherwise noted, the following applies to all such
status indicators:
• Green Checkmark: Expected data is successfully received and is ON. A green check
could also indicate that the parameter/component is working correctly.
• Red X: Expected data is not received. A red X could also indicate that a
parameter/component is invalid.
• White N/A: Expected data is OFF, or no data is expected.

3.2 G1000 System Software Information
NOTE
The following sections provide a detailed description of loading all G1000
software and configuration files, which may be excessive for individual LRU
removal and replacement. If removing and replacing individual LRUs, refer
to Section 6 of this manual for the necessary steps.
3.2.1 G1000 Software Image
G1000 software and configuration files are controlled via the approved software image part
number listed on the General Arrangement drawing listed in Table 1-1. This software image is
loaded into the G1000 using a software loader card. Approved software loader cards may be
purchased from Garmin. Refer to the General Arrangement drawing for the part number.
NOTE
The following sections provide a detailed description of loading all G1000
software and configuration files, which may be excessive for individual LRU
removal and replacement. If removing and replacing individual LRUs, refer
to Section 6 of this manual for the necessary steps.
NOTE
Only SanDisk brand SD cards are recommended for use with the G1000
system. Other brand cards have not been tested by Garmin.
IMPORTANT
To satisfy the G1000 Nxi System STC requirements for the Embraer
Phenom P100, it is critical that the technician installs the correct software
image part number when servicing the G1000 Nxi system. Approved
software loader card and image part numbers are defined on the General
Arrangement drawing.
IMPORTANT
Be cautious when using software loader cards during maintenance. The
G1000 system immediately initializes the card upon power-up. On-screen
prompts must be given careful attention in order to avoid potential loss of
data. Always read through procedures given in Sections 5, 6 and 7 before
attempting to use the software loader cards.
3.2.2 Loader Card
Obtain the software loader SD card listed on the General Arrangement drawing in Table 1-1.
This SD card contains the loader image for use in the PFD1 top slot.
Garmin G1000 NXi System Maintenance Manual 190-02545-02
Embraer Phenom P100 Revision 4
Page 26
3.2.3 Software Files
Software files are defined by part number and version number on the General Arrangement
drawing listed in Table 1-1. Each G1000 system LRU reports the software version it currently
contains to the user in two places.
• Normal System Mode: The Aux – System Status page lists each LRU and the
reported software version.
• Configuration Mode: The System Status page (System page group) reports more
detailed LRU information, including software version, part number, and LRU status.
Software files are loaded to LRUs from the PFD1 System Upload page in configuration mode.
3.3 Configuration Mode
1. Refer to Section 3.1 for the procedure to start the G1000 Nxi system in Configuration
mode.
NOTE
If a software loader card is inserted in the top slot of the display before it is
powered on, the display will automatically enter configuration mode and it
is not needed to press and hold a softkey at power-on.
3.4 G1000 Hardware/Software Compatibility Check
Before installing software, the technician must first ensure that hardware part numbers and mod
status levels are compatible with the G1000 Nxi system software image to be used. The
General Arrangement drawing shows all available combinations of hardware and software part
numbers.
A G1000 Nxi system loader card is required to install software and configuration settings to a
newly installed G1000 Nxi system. The part number of the loader card and software image is
directly associated with the combination of software file part numbers and version levels that
are defined on the General Arrangement drawing. Should software part numbers or versions
change, a new software image part number is issued.
IMPORTANT
After verifying hardware/loader card compatibility, record the software
image part number and all LRU hardware part numbers in the appropriate
aircraft records before proceeding.
NOTE
Throughout the next section of this document, screen shots and examples
are used to illustrate the software and configuration loading process.
These screen shots are provided as reference only. Always refer to the
General Arrangement drawing listed in Table 1-1 for the correct software
file names, versions and part numbers.

3.5 Equipment Verification (Third Party/Optional Equipment Documentation)
Use the configuration/software checklist in Section 3.6 to determine what configuration software
files to load for the aircraft installation. It is extremely important to know exactly what equipment
the aircraft is equipped with and how it is connected before loading any files. Loading the
incorrect files could lead to longer down time and unplanned removal of equipment.
• Garmin optional equipment (i.e. GTX 33 or GTX 3X5 transponder, etc.). Section 3.5.1
helps find which units are installed without a physical inspection.
• Third party avionics equipment interfaced to G1000 (ADF, DME, non-Garmin traffic
systems, etc.). To determine if the third-party equipment is installed, check the circuit
breaker panel for circuit breakers for the units, and check for G1000 controls for the
third-party devices.
3.5.1 Determining Installed Garmin Units
Use the table in Appendix A to determine what the unit part number is based on the unit’s serial
number reported on the MFD Aux – System Status page in Normal mode or PFD1 System
Status page in Config mode. This table lists the units that have different loader card option files
so the installer can choose the correct file without requiring the unit to be physically inspected.
