INTRODUCTION

WORKING WITH MENUS

Much of the operation of the G1000 MFD is accomplished using a menu interface. The G1000 has a bezel-mounted dedicated menu key (MENU) when pressed, displays a context-sensitive list of options. This options list allows the pilot to access additional features or make settings changes which speciﬁcally relate to the currently displayed page. Some menus provide access to additional submenus that are used to view, edit, select, and review options. Some menus display ‘NO OPTIONS’ when there are no options for the page selected.

The main keys which are used in association with all page group operations are listed below:

• CLR – erases information or cancels an entry. Press and hold CLR to immediately display the Navigation Map Page, regardless of the page currently displayed.

• ENT – accepts a menu selection or data entry. Approves an operation or completes data entry. Also conﬁrms information.

• BACK – resets the MFD softkeys to their default settings (ENGINE, MAP, DCLTR, MODE, VIEW, etc).

• DCLTR – removes information from the moving map in a progressive manner with each key-press.

• MENU – displays a context-sensitive list of options that allows access to additional features or that allows the pilot to change the settings which relate to the currently displayed page.

NOTE: Data is entered using the large and small FMS knob. Practice with them to become efﬁcient at entering data. This will greatly reduce the amount time spent operating the MFD in

ﬂight.

If there are more options than can be displayed turn

the FMS knob to scroll through the list to identify them. In all cases, once the menu is displayed the FMS knob is turned to highlight an item and the ENT key is pressed to select that item or the CLR key removes the menu and cancels the operation. Pressing the softkeys does not display a menu or submenu.

TIS SYMBOLOGY

TIS trafﬁc is displayed on the Trafﬁc Map Page according to TCAS symbology. A Trafﬁc Advisory (TA) symbol is displayed as a solid yellow circle (or half circle on the outer range ring if the trafﬁc is outside the range of the dedicated trafﬁc page). All other trafﬁc is displayed as a hollow white Beechcraft. Altitude deviation from the user’s aircraft altitude is displayed above the target symbol if they are above own aircraft altitude, and below the symbol if they are below own aircraft altitude. Altitude trend is displayed as an up arrow (+500 ft/min), down arrow (-500 ft/min), or no symbol if less than 500 ft/min rate in either direction. Other symbols:

• Other Trafﬁc – this symbol represents trafﬁc detected within the selected display range that does not generate a TA.

• Trafﬁc Advisory (TA) – this symbol is generated when trafﬁc meets the advisory criteria described previously.

• Trafﬁc Ground Track is indicated on the Trafﬁc Map Page by a “target track vector”. The track vector line is projected from the trafﬁc advisory symbol and is drawn at any angle necessary to represent the current track of the trafﬁc advisory data.

NOTE: Trafﬁc Information Service (TIS) is not available in all areas.

TRAFFIC MAP PAGE OPERATIONS

Power-Up Test

The TIS interface performs an automatic test during power-up. If the system passes the power-up test, the standby screen is displayed on the Trafﬁc Map Page. If the system passes the power-up test, and the aircraft is airborne, trafﬁc is displayed on the Trafﬁc Page in the operating mode.

If the system fails the power up test, the ‘NO DATA’, ‘DATA FAILED’, or ‘FAILED’ message is displayed. Contact your Beechcraft service center or Garmin dealer for corrective action if the ‘DATA FAILED’, or ‘FAILED’ message is displayed. The ‘FAILED’ message indicates the GTX 33 transponder has failed. The ‘DATA FAILED’ message indicates data is being received from the GTX 33 but a failure was detected in the data stream. The ‘NO DATA’ message indicates that data is not being received from the GTX 33.

Operating Mode

Once the aircraft is airborne (determined by system conﬁguration at the time of installation) the system switches from standby mode to operating mode. The G1000 displays ‘OPERATE’ in the upper left hand corner of the display and begins to display trafﬁc on the Trafﬁc or Map Page. The TIS Trafﬁc Advisory (TA) should

alert the crew to use additional vigilance to identify the intruding aircraft. Any time the trafﬁc symbol becomes a yellow circle or a voice warning is announced, conduct a visual search for the intruder. Maintain visual contact to ensure safe operation.

Once the aircraft is on the ground (determined by system conﬁguration at the time of installation) the system switches from operating mode to standby mode. The Trafﬁc Map Page displays ‘STANDBY’.

• STANDBY – when the Trafﬁc Map Page displays ‘STANDBY’ in the status box located in the upper left corner of the Trafﬁc Map Page, the TIS system is in standby mode and cannot display trafﬁc data.

• OPERATE – when the Trafﬁc Map Page displays ‘OPERATE’ in the status box located in the left corner of the Trafﬁc Map Page, the TIS system is in operational mode and available to display trafﬁc on the Trafﬁc or Map Page.

3. Press the

key. The page menu is displayed with ‘Standby Mode’ or ‘Operate Mode’ highlighted. Press the

ENT

key on the

desired selection.

TIS Audio Alert

A TIS audio alert is generated whenever the number of TAs on the Trafﬁc Map Page display increases from one scan to the next. The limiting to TAs only reduces the amount of “nuisance” alerting due to proximate aircraft. For example, when the ﬁrst TA is displayed, the pilot is alerted audibly. So long as a single TA aircraft remains on the TIS display, no further audio alert is generated. If a second (or more) TA aircraft appear on the display, a new audio alert is sounded. If the number of TAs on the TIS display decreases and then increases, a new audio alert is sounded. The TIS audio alert is also generated whenever TIS service becomes unavailable. The volume of the audio alert (including the choice between a male or female voice) is conﬁgured during installation. The following TIS audio alerts are available:

• “Trafﬁc” - TIS trafﬁc alert is received.

• “Trafﬁc Not Available” - TIS service is not available or out of range.

The pilot can switch between the standby (STBY) and operate (ON) modes of operation to manually override automatic operation using the page menu or softkeys.

To switch between operating modes:

TIS Trafﬁc Status

The MFD indicates the following TIS trafﬁc status to

the pilot.

Trafﬁc Banner

• AGE - if trafﬁc data is not refreshed within 6 seconds, an age indicator (i.e., ‘AGE 00:06’) is displayed in the lower left corner of the display (when displaying trafﬁc). After another 6 seconds, if data is still not received, the trafﬁc is removed from the display. The pilot should be aware that the quality of displayed trafﬁc is reduced in this condition.

• TRFC COAST - the ‘TRFC COAST’ (trafﬁc coasting) banner located above the AGE timer indicates that displayed trafﬁc is held even though the data is stale. The pilot should be aware that the quality of displayed trafﬁc is reduced in this condition.

• TRFC RMVD - the ‘TRFC RMVD’ banner indicates that trafﬁc has been removed from the display due to the age of the data being too old to “coast” (for the time period of 12-60 seconds from the last receipt of a TIS message). The pilot should be aware that trafﬁc may be present but not shown.

• TA OFF - the ‘TA OFF’ scale banner displayed in the lower left corner of the display indicates that a trafﬁc advisory is outside the selected display range. The trafﬁc advisory off range banner is removed when the trafﬁc advisory is within the selected display range.

• TRAFFIC - on the PFD, when the system receives a trafﬁc advisory a ﬂashing ‘TRAFFIC’ alert is displayed in the upper left hand portion of the display. The PFD inset map also automatically displays trafﬁc data.

DIRECT-TO NAVIGATION

8.5 DIRECT-TO NAVIGATION

The “Direct-to” function provides a quick method of setting a course to a destination waypoint. Once a Direct-to is activated, the G1000 establishes a point-topoint course line from the present position to the selected Direct-to destination. If the course change is greater than 30 degrees, a course extension is offset from the present position to allow a standard rate turn to intercept the Direct-to course line. Note that the CDI (HSI) needle will not be immediately centered in this case. Direct-to course guidance is provided until the Direct-to is cancelled or replaced by a new destination, and the navigation data is displayed on the Navigation Map Page

The G1000 can create up to 99 different ﬂight plans with up to 31 waypoints in each ﬂight plan. The ﬂight plan (FPL) page group consists of three pages:

• Active Flight Plan

• Flight Plan Catalog

• Vertical Navigation

The Flight Plan Pages are used to create, edit and copy ﬂight plans. The Vertical Navigation Page is used to create a three-dimensional proﬁle which guides the aircraft to a ﬁnal (target) altitude at a speciﬁed location.

ACTIVE FLIGHT PLAN PAGE

The Active Flight Plan Page provides information and editing functions for the ﬂight plan currently in use for navigation. Once a Direct-to or ﬂight plan has been activated, the Active Flight Plan Page shows the following:

• Each waypoint for the ﬂight plan (or a single waypoint for a Direct-to), along with the desired track (DTK) and distance of each leg (DIS).

• Active leg information with enroute safe altitude (ESA) for the speciﬁed leg.

• Active FPL information with enroute safe altitude (ESA)

• Flight plan information showing remaining leg and remaining total distance, and enroute safe altitude for the entire route.

The data ﬁelds are user-selectable and can be changed

to display the following:

• Cumulative Distance (CUM)

• Distance (DIS)

• Desired Track (DTK)

• Enroute Safe Altitude (ESA)

• Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA)

Store Flight Plan

Whenever an approach, departure or arrival is loaded into the active ﬂight plan, a set of approach, departure or arrival waypoints is inserted into the ﬂight plan along with a header line describing the instrument procedure the pilot selected. The original enroute portion of the ﬂight plan remains active (unless an instrument procedure is activated) which may be done when the procedure is loaded or at a later time. Flight plans can also be stored with an approach, departure or arrival. The active ﬂight plan is erased when the system is turned off and overwritten when another ﬂight plan is activated.

When storing ﬂight plans with an approach, departure or arrival, the G1000 uses the waypoint information from the current database to deﬁne the waypoints. If the da tabase is changed or updated, the G1000 automatically updates the information if the procedure has not been modiﬁed. If an approach, departure or arrival procedure is no longer available, the procedure is deleted from the ﬂight plan and an alert is displayed.

VERTICAL NAVIGATION (VNAV) PAGE

The Vertical Navigation Page allows the creation of a three-dimensional proﬁle which guides the aircraft from it’s present position and altitude to a ﬁnal (target) altitude at a speciﬁed location. This is helpful when you would like to descend to a certain altitude near an airport or climb to an altitude before reaching a route or Direct-to waypoint. Once the proﬁle is deﬁned, message alerts and additional data on the Navigation Map Page keep the pilot informed of progress.

PROCEDURES

APPROACHES

The G1000 allows you to ﬂy non-precision and precision approaches to airports with published instrument approach procedures. All available approaches are part of the Jeppesen database stored internally in each PFD and MFD.

The G1000 provides both lateral and vertical guidance for ILS precision approaches on the PFD, and lateral guidance for non-precision Localizer, GPS, and VOR and ADF overlay approaches. GPS position information is also provided on the mapping portion of the MFD and the inset map window on the PFD for pilot reference only.

G1000 NAVIGATIONAL GUIDANCE FOR

APPROACHES

The G1000 supports all ARINC 424 leg types that have associated waypoint ﬁxes. The G1000 uses the following leg types as part of the Jeppesen database:

• AF - DME arc to a ﬁx

• CF – Course to a ﬁx

• DF – Direct to a ﬁx

• FA – Course from ﬁx to an altitude

• FC – Course from ﬁx to distance

• FD – Course from ﬁx to DME distance

• FM – Course from ﬁx to manual termination

• HA – Hold terminating at altitude

• HF – Hold terminating at a ﬁx

• HM – Hold with manual termination

• IF – Initial ﬁx

• PI – Procedure turn to course intercept

• RF – Constant radius turn to ﬁx

• TF – Track between two ﬁxes

Each of these legs is displayed on the active ﬂight plan.

The G1000 does not support the following legs:

• CA – Course to an altitude

• CD – Course to a DME distance

• CI – Course to an intercept

• CR – Course to a radial

• VA – Heading vector to an altitude

• VD – Heading vector to DME distance

• VI – Heading vector to an intercept

• VM – Heading vector to manual termination

• VR – Heading vector to a radial

NOTE: The G1000 does not provide steering guid-

ance for hold legs and procedure turns (HA, HF, HM and PI leg types). However, these legs are drawn on the map and are shown in the ﬂight plan.

NOTE: The pilot is responsible for determining

database currency for approaches.

PROCEDURES

Figure 8.7.2 Selecting an Approach Procedure

Not all approaches in the database are approved for GPS use. As you select an approach, a ‘GPS’ designation to the right of the procedure name indicates the procedure can be ﬂown using the GPS receiver. Some procedures will not have this designation, meaning the GPS receiver can be used for supplemental navigation guidance only. If the GPS receiver cannot be used for primary guidance, you must use the appropriate receiver for the selected approach (e.g., VOR or ILS). The ﬁnal course segment of ILS approaches, for example, must be ﬂown by tuning the Nav receiver to the proper frequency and selecting that Nav receiver on the CDI.

A selected approach can be activated or loaded. Activating the approach also initiates automatic

CDI scaling transition as the approach progresses. In many cases, it can be easiest to “Load” the full approach while still some distance away, enroute to the destination airport. Later, if vectored to ﬁnal, use the following steps to select ‘Activate Vector-To-Final’ – which makes the inbound course to the FAF waypoint active. Otherwise, activate the full approach using the ‘Activate Approach?’ option.
