WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
WARNING: Navigation and terrain separation must NOT be predicated upon the use of the terrain function.
The G1000 Terrain Proximity feature is NOT intended to be used as a primary reference for terrain avoidance
and does not relieve the pilot from the responsibility of being aware of surroundings during flight. The Terrain
Proximity feature is only to be used as an aid for terrain avoidance and is not certified for use in applications
requiring a certified terrain awareness system. Terrain data is obtained from third party sources. Garmin is
not able to independently verify the accuracy of the terrain data.
WARNING: The displayed minimum safe altitudes (MSAs) are only advisory in nature and should not be relied
upon as the sole source of obstacle and terrain avoidance information. Always refer to current aeronautical
charts for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes.
WARNING: The Garmin G1000, as installed in Mooney M20M/R aircraft, has a very high degree of functional
integrity. However, the pilot must recognize that providing monitoring and/or self-test capability for all
conceivable system failures is not practical. Although unlikely, it may be possible for erroneous operation to
occur without a fault indication shown by the G1000. It is thus the responsibility of the pilot to detect such an
occurrence by means of cross-checking with all redundant or correlated information available in the cockpit.
WARNING: For safety reasons, G1000 operational procedures must be learned on the ground.
WARNING: The altitude calculated by G1000 GPS receivers is geometric height above Mean Sea Level and could
vary significantly from the altitude displayed by pressure altimeters, such as the GDC 74A Air Data Computer,
or other altimeters in aircraft. GPS altitude should never be used for vertical navigation. Always use pressure
altitude displayed by the G1000 PFD or other pressure altimeters in aircraft.
WARNING: The Jeppesen database used in the G1000 system must be updated regularly in order to ensure
that its information remains current. Updates are released every 28 days. A database information packet is
included in the G1000 package. Pilots using an outdated database do so entirely at their own risk.
WARNING: The basemap (land and water data) must not be used for navigation, but rather only for non-navi-
gational situational awareness. Any basemap indication should be compared with other navigation sources.
CAUTION: The United States government operates the Global Positioning System and is solely responsible
for its accuracy and maintenance. The GPS system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and
performance of all GPS equipment. Portions of the Garmin G1000 utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVi
gation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the G1000 can be misused or
misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

WARNINGS & CAUTIONS
CAUTION: To reduce the risk of unsafe operation, carefully review and understand all aspects of the G1000
Pilot’s Guide documentation and the G1000 Flight Manual Supplement. Thoroughly practice basic operation
prior to actual use. During flight operations, carefully compare indications from the G1000 to all available
navigation sources, including the information from other NAVAIDs, visual sightings, charts, etc. For safety
purposes, always resolve any discrepancies before continuing navigation.
CAUTION: The Garmin G1000 does not contain any user-serviceable parts. Repairs should only be made by
an authorized Garmin service center. Unauthorized repairs or modifications could void both the warranty and
the pilot’s authority to operate this device under FAA/FCC regulations.
CAUTION: The GDU 1040 PFD and MFD displays use a lens coated with a special anti-reflective coating that
is very sensitive to skin oils, waxes, and abrasive cleaners. CLEANERS CONTAINING AMMONIA WILL HARM
THE ANTI-REFLECTIVE COATING. It is very important to clean the lens using a clean, lint-free cloth and an
eyeglass lens cleaner that is specified as safe for anti-reflective coatings.
CAUTION: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the G1000 panel
and displays, are subject to change and may not reflect the most current G1000 system. Depictions of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.
CAUTION: The illustrations in this guide are only examples. Never use the G1000 to attempt to penetrate a
thunderstorm. Both the FAA Advisory Circular, Subject: Thunderstorms, and the Airman’s Information Manual
(AIM) recommend avoiding “by at least 20 miles any thunderstorm identified as severe or giving an intense
radar echo.”
CAUTION: There are several atmospheric phenomena in addition to nearby thunderstorms that can cause
isolated discharge points in the strike display mode. However, clusters of two or more discharge points in
the strike display mode do indicate thunderstorm activity if these points reappear after the screen has been
cleared. Avoid the clusters to avoid the thunderstorms. In the cell display mode, even a single discharge point
may represent thunderstorm activity and should therefore be avoided.
WARNING: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two
conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any interference
received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

1.5 BACKLIGHTING
The G1000 PFD and MFD displays use photocell technology to automatically adjust for ambient lighting conditions. Photocell calibration curves are pre-configured
to optimize display appearance through a broad range of
cockpit lighting conditions. PFD, MFD, and GMA 1347
bezel/key lighting is normally controlled directly by the
existing instrument panel dimmer bus.
If desired, the PFD and MFD display backlights
may be adjusted manually. PFD, MFD, and GMA 1347
bezel/key brightness can also be adjusted manually as
well. GMA 1347 bezel/key brightness is directly tied to
the MFD bezel/key adjustment. Section 2 provides instructions on how to manually adjust the backlighting.
1.6 REVERSIONARY MODE
flight instrumentation in place of traditional gyro instruments. Attitude, heading, airspeed, altitude, and vertical
speed are all shown on one display. The MFD shows a
full-color moving map with navigation information. Both
displays offer control over COM and NAV frequency selec-
tors, as well as heading, course/baro and altitude reference
functions. On the left of the MFD display, an Engine Indication System (EIS) cluster shows graphical depictions of
engine and airframe instrumentation. Figure 1-3 gives an
example of the G1000 system in normal mode.

SECTION 2 – PFD
SECTION 2: PRIMARY FLIGHT
DISPLAY
This Cockpit Reference Guide describes the basic features of the Primary Flight Display (PFD) on the G1000
Integrated Cockpit System installed on Mooney aircraft.
The system consists of two 10.4 inch color flat panel displays. During normal operation, the left display is con
figured as a Primary Flight Display. See the PFD Pilot’s
Guide for PFD descriptions and operating procedures not covered in this Cockpit Reference Guide.
The PFD provides increased situational awareness by
replacing the traditional “six pack” of instruments in the
pilot’s panel with a easy to scan display that provides a
large horizon, airspeed, attitude, altitude, vertical speed,
navigation, communication, annunciation, terrain, traffic
and lightning information. The PFD will also control the
operation of the transponder, selecting NAV/COM fre
quencies and audio volume and many navigation features.
The operation of these features are explained in other supporting pilot’s guide documentation.
WARNING: In the event that the airspeed,
attitude, altitude or heading indications become
unusable please refer to the backup instruments.

Altitude Alerting
Altitude alerting provides the pilot with a visual and
aural alert when approaching the reference altitude.
Although flight control systems use the same reference
altitude box the altitude alerter does, the altitude alerter
is not coupled to a flight control system and can func
tion without one. The visual annunciations appear in the
altitude reference box. Anytime the reference altitude is
changed, the altitude alerter is reset.
There is an altitude band set at +/- 1,000 ft. of the ref
erence altitude and a deviation band set at +/- 200 ft. of
the reference altitude. When the pilot climbs or descends
to the reference altitude an aural alert (single tone) sounds
and the reference altitude flashes (cyan on black) for 5
seconds then changes to black on cyan as the aircraft pass
es through +/- 1,000 ft. of the reference altitude.
When the aircraft passes within +/- 200 ft. of the ref
erence altitude, the reference altitude flashes (cyan on
black) again indicating that the aircraft is within the devia
tion band. Each time the pilot flies outside the deviation
band (+/- 200 ft. of the reference altitude), an aural alert
is generated and the reference altitude flashes (yellow on
black) for 5 seconds.

Heading Indication
A digital reading of the current magnetic heading ap
pears on top of the HSI. A rotatable heading bug on the
compass rose and arc marks the desired heading. When
the pilot selects a heading, a digital reading will appear for 3
seconds in a box left of the lubber line, next to the HSI.
Figure 2-19 Selected Heading Box
NOTE: The heading displayed on the HSI is always
magnetic, even if the NAV ANGLE is set to ‘TRUE’
in the AUX System Setup Page on the MFD.
Turn Rate Indicator
The Turn Rate Indicator resides directly above the rotating compass card. Each tick mark is at 9 (half standard
rate) and 18 (standard rate) degrees to the left and right of
the lubber line. A wide magenta line displays the current
turn rate up to 24 degrees. A magenta arrowhead appears
at 25 degrees and disappears at 24 degrees. This trend
vector provides the pilot with a 6 second prediction of
what the heading will be at the present turn rate.
Course Deviation Indicator
The HSI contains a course deviation indicator (CDI),
with a course pointer arrow, TO/FROM arrow, a sliding
deviation bar and scale. The course pointer is a single
line arrow (GPS and NAV1) or double line arrow (NAV2),
which points in the direction of the set course. The TO/
FROM arrow rotates with the course pointer and is dis
played when the active navaid is received. The sliding
deviation bar moves left or right from the course pointer
along a scale to display aircraft position relative to the
course. When the pilot selects a course, a digital reading
will appear for 3 seconds in a box right of the lubber line,
next to the HSI.
Figure 2-21 Selected Course Box
The CDI has angular limits exactly the same as a mechanical CDI when coupled to a VOR or LOC. When
coupled to GPS, the full scale limits for the CDI are defined by a GPS derived distance (5.0, 1.0 or 0.3 nm). The
CDI scale automatically adjusts to the desired limits based
upon the current phase of flight (enroute 5.0 nm, terminal
area 1.0 nm or approach 0.3 nm). The desired GPS scale
settings may be selected manually from the MFD (refer to
the MFD Pilot’s Guide).

Bearing Pointers and Information Windows
There are 2 bearing pointers available, 1 or 2 can be
displayed on the HSI. Pressing the PFD softkey provides
access to the BRG1 and BRG2 softkeys. BRG1 pointer is
a single cyan (light blue) line with an open arrowhead at
the end. BRG2 pointer is a double cyan (light blue) line
with an open arrowhead at the end. The bearing point
ers never override the CDI. When one or more bearing
pointers are displayed (but not necessarily visible if there
is no data available), a white ring is presented around the
center of the compass rose to visually separate the bearing
pointer(s) from the CDI.
When a bearing pointer is displayed it’s associated
information window is also displayed. BRG1 information window is displayed to the lower left of the HSI
and includes the bearing source (NAV1), a pointer icon,
frequency and distance (NAV1 and GPS) to the bearing
source. BRG2 information window is displayed to the
lower right of the HSI and includes the bearing source
(NAV2), a pointer icon, frequency and distance (NAV2) to
the bearing source.
If GPS is the bearing source, the active waypoint identifier is displayed in lieu of a frequency. If an active waypoint is not selected, the bearing pointer is removed from
the HSI and “NO DATA” is displayed in the information
window.
If the NAV radio is the bearing source and is tuned to
an ILS frequency, the bearing pointer is removed from the
HSI and the frequency is replaced with “ILS”. If the NAV
radio is not receiving the tuned VOR station, the bearing
pointer is removed from the HSI and the frequency displayed in the information window is replaced with “NO
DATA”.
When NAV1 or NAV2 is the selected bearing source,
the frequency is replaced by the station identifier when
the station is in range.

Navigation Source
The HSI can display two sources of navigation, GPS
or NAV (VOR, localizer, and glideslope). In GPS mode
the flight plan legs are sequenced automatically. Enabling
OBS mode suspends auto sequencing of waypoints, but
retains the current “active to” waypoint as your navigation
reference even after passing the waypoint. When OBS is
disabled the GPS returns to normal operation, with auto
matic sequencing of waypoints. OBS mode also allows
the pilot to set the desired course TO/FROM a waypoint.
Color indicates the current navigation source, magenta
(for GPS ) or green (for NAV). As the user crosses the
MAP, “SUSP” appears on the HSI in place of OBS and the
OBS softkey now reads “SUSP”, indicating that automatic
sequencing of approach waypoints is suspended at the
MAP. A yellow ‘INTEG’ and ‘WARN’ may appear on the
HSI when the following occurs:
• INTEG – RAIM is not available
• WARN – GPS detects a position error

NOTE: A push-to-talk (PTT) switch must be
pressed to open the selected output channel.
Each audio panel can accept up to six (6) microphone
inputs, thus allowing for a two-person crew and up to
four (4)passenger intercom stations in the aircraft.
Mono/Stereo Headsets
The GMA 1347 can accommodate up to six (6) headsets (pilot, copilot and up to four (4) passengers).
In Configuration mode, headset audio level can be ad
justed above or below a nominal value for MUSIC 1, MUSIC
2, UNSWITCHED 1, UNSWITCHED 2, UNSWITCHED
3 and ALTITUDE WARNING. Please consult a Garminauthorized service center for additional information.
Unmuted/Unswitched Inputs
The unit provides four (4) unmuted/unswitched inputs that are always presented to the headsets or speakers
connected to the panel. These inputs are the following
aural warnings:
•ALT warning
•UNSWITCHED 1
•UNSWITCHED 2
•UNSWITCHED 3
NOTE: The use of stereo headsets is highly
recommended. However, if monaural headsets
are plugged into stereo jacks that do not each
have a switch installed, the unit will not be damaged.
Use of a monaural headset in a stereo jack shorts the
right headset channel output to ground. Thus, a person
listening on a monaural headset only hears the left channel in both ears. If a monaural headset is used at one of
the passenger positions, any other passenger listening on
a stereo headset hears audio in the left ear only, unless the
headset has a mono/stereo switch and the latter is set to
mono.

3.2 UNIT OPERATION
Power-up Settings
Upon power-up, the unit undergoes a self-test during
which all panel annunciator lights illuminate for approxi
mately two (2) seconds. Once the self-test is completed,
the settings are restored to the settings that were current
before the unit was last powered off. For example, if the
COM1 MIC, COM1, COM2, SPKR, NAV1, NAV2,
MKR/MUTE, HI SENS, and MAN SQ keys were selected
when the unit was last powered off, these keys will be
automatically re-selected when the unit is powered back
on.
Fail-safe Mode
In the event of an audio panel failure, the unit switches
to fail-safe mode. In fail-safe mode, fail-safe audio is directed to the pilot’s headset (left channel only). Fail-safe
mode bypasses the GMA 1347 circuits, with the exception
of the relay that switches the pilot’s MIC and the pilot’s
headset directly to COM1.
-
Selecting Keys
For all keys with the exception of the MKR/MUTE
and PLAY keys, pressing a key activates the corresponding channel and illuminates the associated triangular annunciator light.
Deselecting Keys
For all keys with the exception of the COM MIC,
MKR/MUTE and PLAY keys, pressing the key again de-
activates the corresponding channel and turns off the associated annunciator light.
NOTE: Operational details on the COM MIC,
MKR/MUTE and PLAY keys as well as the DISPLAY BACKUP button are provided later in this
manual.
Lighting
LED key backlighting is controlled automatically by
the MFD (the PFD assumes control should the MFD fail).
NOTE: When a key is active during normal opera-
tions, its corresponding annunciator LED is lit.

SECTION 3 – AUDIO PANEL
Transceiver Keys
As illustrated below, the following eight (8) transceiv-
er keys appear at the top of the GMA 1347 front panel:
COM1 MIC, COM2 MIC, COM3 MIC, COM 1/2,
COM1, COM2, COM3, and TEL. COM audio can be
selected by either pressing the desired COM key or by
pressing the corresponding COM MIC key.
NOTE: A PTT switch must be pressed to allow
all microphone transmissions.
Pressing a COM Key
Pressing COM1, COM2, or COM3 selects the corresponding radio as the active audio source. Each audio
source can be selected independently by pressing COM1,
COM2, or COM3. If selected in this manner, the audio source remains selected independently of the active
microphone source selection. The active COM audio is
always heard through the headsets, and any combination
of audio sources can be selected simultaneously.
During COM signal reception, a white RX inscrip
-
tion appears next to the corresponding COM frequency
on both the PFD and the MFD for the duration of the
reception.
Keying a Microphone
When a microphone is keyed, the active transceiver
MIC key annunciator blinks approximately once per second to indicate that the transmission is active, and a white
TX inscription appears next to the corresponding COM
frequency on both the PFD and the MFD for the duration
of the transmission.
Figure 3-2 Transceivers
Pressing a COM MIC Key
Pressing COM1 MIC, COM2 MIC, or COM3 MIC
selects the corresponding radio as the active microphone
source (i.e., as the primary COM radio) and highlights
the corresponding COM frequency in green in the active
frequency field of the PFD and MFD.
Only one microphone source can be selected at a time.
Thus, if COM1 MIC is pressed when COM2 MIC is al
ready selected, COM2 MIC is automatically deactivated
and the COM2 MIC annunciator light is turned off. The
corresponding audio selection key (in this case, COM1)
becomes automatically selected if it is not already selected
at the time.
Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for Mooney M20M & M20R

When no further aircraft radio activity is detected by
the unit, the amount of ambient background noise from
the radios is further reduced by the MASQTM (Master Avionics Squelch) circuit (information on MASQ
TM
is present-
ed later in this manual).
NOTE: Audio level of the selected COM radio(s)
is controlled by the COM radio volume control
located on both the PFD and MFD (see G1000
VHF NAV/COM Pilot’s Guide for more information).

Page 50
SECTION 3 – AUDIO PANEL
COM Swap
The GMA 1347 allows for the use of a remotely mounted switch to alternately transfer the active microphone
between COM1 MIC and COM2 MIC. The COM swap
switch is typically mounted on the yoke or control stick.
If COM1 MIC is the active microphone (i.e., both COM1 MIC and COM1 keys are annunciated), pressing the COM
swap switch transfers the active microphone from COM1
MIC to COM2 MIC (i.e., both COM1 MIC and COM1
keys become deselected, and COM2 MIC and COM2
keys become annunciated). Pressing the switch has no ef
fect if COM3 is the active transceiver or if COM 1/2 (split
COM) is activated.
Please consult a Garmin-authorized service center for
details on the remote COM swap option.
Split COM
Pressing the COM 1/2 key toggles the state of the split
COM function. During split COM operation, the COM1,
COM1 MIC, COM2 and COM2 MIC keys are annunciated and thus active.
NOTE: Split COM performance varies significantly
across installations and is affected by both the
distance between the antennas and the separation of the tuned frequencies. In small aircraft
particularly, receiver sensitivity is typically
reduced and squelch breaks are affected. Each
installation should be individually examined to
determine the expected performance of split
COM.
PA Function
The passenger address function is provided via the PA
key. Push-to-talk (PTT) must be used to deliver PA announcements.
NOTE: PA volume is adjustable in Configuration
mode.
36
When the COM 1/2 key is selected, COM1 becomes
dedicated solely to the pilot for MIC/audio, while
COM2
becomes dedicated to the copilot for MIC/audio. The
COM1 MIC annunciator blinks when the pilot’s microphone is keyed. The COM2 MIC annunciator blinks
when the copilot’s microphone is keyed.
In this mode, both the pilot and the copilot can
simultaneously transmit over separate radios. Note that,
while the pilot can still monitor
COM3, NAV1, NAV2,
DME, ADF, AUX and MKR audio as selected, the copilot is
only able to monitor/hear COM2.
Split COM mode is cancelled by pressing the COM 1/2
key.
Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for Mooney M20M & M20R
Page 51
SECTION 3 – AUDIO PANEL
Split COM and PA
When in split COM mode (COM 1/2 activated), the
copilot can make PA announcements while the pilot continues to use COM1 independently. When the PA key is
pressed after the split COM mode is activated, the copilot’s
microphone is output over the cabin speaker when keyed.
Pressing the PA key again returns the copilot to normal
split COM operation.
NOTE:Only the copilot can make PA announce-
ments when in split COM and PA mode.
Speaker Output
Pressing the SPKR key selects the aircraft radios to be
output to the cabin speaker. Pressing the SPKR key again
deselects the speaker mode. When SPKR is selected, any
and all of the following radios can be heard over the cabin
speaker: COM1, COM2, COM3, NAV1, NAV2, DME,
ADF, and AUX.
Speaker output is muted when the PTT switch is
keyed.All of the unswitched/unmuted radio inputs can
be heard over the speaker. In Configuration mode, speaker audio level is adjustable above and below a nominal
value. Please consult a Garmin-authorized service center
for details.

3.3 MARKER BEACON RECEIVER
Description and Operation
The GMA 1347 provides a marker beacon receiver to
be used as part of an ILS approach. In addition to the
normal marker beacon receiver functions, the GMA 1347
provides an audio muting capability. The marker beacon receiver is always “ON” and receives at 75 MHz.
The receiver detects three (3) tones associated with the
outer, middle and inner approach markers, respectively,
and illuminates the appropriate marker beacon indica
tor lights located to the left of the Altimeter on the PFD.
The outer marker signal frequency is 400 Hz, and a blue
light indicates its reception. The middle marker signal
frequency is 1,300 Hz, and an amber light indicates its
reception. The inner marker signal frequency is 3,000
Hz, and a white light indicates its reception.
When the
MKR/MUTE key is selected, the
corresponding annunciator light becomes illuminated
and the audio signal can be heard over the headsets.
-
The marker beacon audio level is aligned at the factory
to produce its rated audio output. Audio output level is
also adjustable in Configuration mode. Please consult a
Garmin-authorized service center for details.
NOTE: The unit provides output for driving
external marker beacon lamps and it provides
a middle marker sense output for use with an
autopilot.
Marker Beacon Signal Augmentation
The HI SENS key can be pressed to augment marker
beacon signal reception sensitivity. The HI SENS function
is typically used either over airway markers or to receive
an earlier indication of a nearing outer marker during an
approach.
The middle marker sense indicator provides input to
the autopilot.
The lamp and audio keying of the marker beacon re
ceiver are summarized in Table 3-1.
-
38
When the
MKR/MUTE key is annunciated and a
marker beacon tone is received, pressing the MKR/MUTE
key mutes the audio but does not affect the
corresponding
annunciator light. The audio returns when the next (different) marker signal is received. If the MKR/MUTE key
is pressed while the marker beacon audio is muted, the
marker audio becomes deactivated and the MKR/MUTE
annunciator light is turned off.
NOTE: The marker beacon receiver lights operate
independently of the marker beacon audio and
cannot be turned off.

When the GMA 1347 MAN SQ key is selected, pressing the
VOL/SQ knob toggles between volume and
squelch adjustment modes. When the unit is in volume
adjustment mode, the VOL annunciation on the lower
left of the VOL/SQ knob is lit and volume can thus be
adjusted. Similarly, when the unit is in squelch mode, the
SQ annunciation on the lower right of the VOL/SQ knob
is lit and squelch threshold level can thus be adjusted.
NOTE: When the MAN SQ key is deselected (i.e.,
auto-squelch is active), pressing the VOL/SQ
knob has no effect on the VOL/SQ selection state
of the unit and VOL is automatically annunciated.
Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for Mooney M20M & M20R

SECTION 3 – AUDIO PANEL
When transitioning from auto to manual squelch, the
unit “recalls” the previous VOL/SQ selection and sets the
state of the unit accordingly (see table below).
NOTE: The volume and squelch controls for the
COM and NAV radios are located on the PFD
and MFD bezels (please refer to the G1000 VHF
NAV/COM Pilot’s Guide for details).
Intercom VOL/SQ State
Intercom Volume Control
Intercom volume can be controlled via the
knob. The small knob controls the pilot ICS volume,
while the large knob controls the copilot/passenger ICS
volume. Turning either knob clockwise increases audio
level. Conversely, turning either knob counterclockwise
decreases audio level. When the MAN SQ key is not annunciated, volume adjustment mode is automatically selected and the VOL annunciation is lit.
To adjust ICS volume when the MAN SQ key
is not annunciated:
1. Turn the appropriate
VOL/SQ

4.3 ENGINE INDICATION SYSTEM
WINDOW
The G1000 Engine Indication System (EIS) window
provides gauges, bar graphs and numeric readouts of engine and airframe systems parameters to the pilot. The
EIS window is displayed on the left side of the MFD during normal operations. In reversionary mode, the PFD
and MFD both show the EIS window.
The EIS contains three distinct pages, which are
accessed by the ENGINE softkey:
• Engine (default)
• Lean
• System
ENGINE Page
The Engine page is the default EIS page, which displays
engine, fuel and airframe/electrical indicators. Atop this
page are round dial gauges with a white pointer and digital
readouts for manifold pressure and revolutions per minute
(RPM). Below those gauges are color-coded horizontal bar
indicators with triangle pointers and numeric readouts in
dicating fuel quantity (no numeric readout), fuel flow (not
color-coded), oil pressure, oil temperature, exhaust gas
temperature (EGT) of the hottest cylinder – for normally
aspirated aircraft, turbine inlet temperature (TIT) – for turbocharged aircraft, and cylinder head temperature (CHT)
of the hottest cylinder. The pointer on the horizontal bar
indicators appears in white, which represents acceptable
areas of operation. The pointer color changes to yellow or
red upon exceeding areas of normal operation.
The green band is indicative of normal areas of operation. Located at the bottom of the page are the electrical
indicators. A numeric readout is provided for the battery
voltage, essential bus voltage, and the alternator amperage.

CAUTION: TIS warns the pilot with voice and
visual traffic advisories whenever it predicts an
intruder to be a threat. The pilot should not start
evasive maneuvers using information from the
Traffic Map Page display or on a traffic advisory
only. The display and advisories are intended
only for assistance in visually locating the traffic
and lack the resolution and coordination ability
necessary for evasive maneuvering. The pilot
should attempt to visually acquire the intruder
aircraft and maintain/attain a safe separation
in accordance with the regulatory requirements
and good operating practice. If the pilot cannot
acquire the aircraft, they should contact ATC to
obtain any information that may assist concerning the intruder aircraft. Based on the above
procedures minor adjustment to the vertical
flight path consistent with air traffic require
ments are not considered evasive maneuvers.
See Appendix E in the Pilot’s guide for detailed
TIS information.

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 diamond. 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.

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. Con
tact your Mooney 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.
Changing the Map Range
To change the map range:
1. Turn the joystick clockwise to zoom out, or turn
the joystick counter-clockwise to zoom in. Map

Operating Mode
Once the aircraft is airborne (determined by sys
tem 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.

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 au
dio 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.

• 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

4.8 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-to-point
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.

4.9 FLIGHT PLANS
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 way
point 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.

SECTION 4 – MFD
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 guid
ance 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.
NOTE: The approach charts shown in this section
are not drawn to range and are not to be used
for navigation.

navigating the original flight plan, but keeps the
procedure available on the Active Flight Plan
Page for quick activation when needed. ‘Acti
vate?’ overrides the enroute portion of the active
flight plan, proceeding directly to the approach
portion.
NOTE: You can also load an approach by pressing
the
APR
softkey.

Figure 4-31 Selecting an Approach Transition
Page 99
SECTION 4 – MFD
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. Acti
vating 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.
To activate an Approach Procedure:
1. With an approach loaded in the active flight
PROC
plan, press the
key to display the Proce-
dures Page.
2. Turn the
large FMS
knob to highlight ‘Activate
Approach’.

3. Press the

CAUTION: The G1000 is designed to complement
the printed approach charts and vastly improve
situational awareness throughout the approach.
The approach must be flown as it appears on the
approach chart.
NOTE: The GPS approach examples given in
the next section are not to be used for navigation. They are to be used in conjunction with
the G1000 PC training simulator software for
practice in learning what types of approaches

GPS Approach Examples
No Procedure Turn
An approach where there is no procedure turn required to get established on the inbound course to the
FAF is our example. GPS RWY 12 is used to show how
the G1000 sequences through an approach and what type
of annunciation and range factor changes can be expected
(the G1000 automatically sequences through all legs of an
FPL
-
approach without pilot input other than to activate the ap
proach and to sequence past the missed approach point).
This example is based upon and active flight plan from
KFLG (Flagstaff, AZ Pulliam Airport) to KPRC (Prescott,
AZ Love Airport).
1. Select KPRC as the destination, via the
Direct-to
key or as the last waypoint in a flight plan.
2. Press the
PROC
key and select the GPS RWY 12
approach. From the transitions window, select
IRODY as the IAF (select ‘LOAD?’).
3. Within 30 nm of the destination, the G1000
switches from enroute mode to terminal mode.
The switch to terminal mode is accompanied
by a gradual CDI scale transition from 5.0 to
1.0 nm full scale deflection.
4. Prior to reaching the IAF (IRODY), the approach
sequence should be reviewed. Press the
key to display the Active Flight Plan Page. Press
the
FMS
knob and turn the
large FMS
knob to
review each segment of the approach. When
FPL
finished press the
key again to return to
the previous page.
5. As the pilot approaches the IAF (IRODY), a
waypoint message ‘NEXT DTK 204°’ appears
in the navigation status bar on the PFD. As
the distance to the IAF approaches zero, the
message is replaced by a turn advisory ‘TURN
TO 204°’.
6. As the pilot approaches the IAP (OKAPY), a
waypoint message ‘NEXT DTK 124°’ appears.
As the distance approaches zero the message is
replaced by a turn advisory ‘TURN TO 124°’.
7. At 2.0 nm from the FAF (MULHU), the G1000
switches from terminal mode to approach
mode. CDI scaling begins rounding down from
1.0 to 0.3 nm full scale deflection.
8. Upon crossing the FAF ‘NEXT DTK 124°’
appears and the destination sequences to the
MAP (RW12map, the runway threshold). Keep
ing the needle centered, fly toward the MAP,
observing the altitude minimums dictated by
the approach plate.
9. As the pilot approaches the MAP, a waypoint
message ‘ARRIVING AT WAYPOINT’ appears.
10. Upon crossing the MAP, ‘SUSP’ appears on the
SUSP
HSI and directly above the
softkey, indicating that automatic sequencing of approach
waypoints is suspended at the MAP. A ‘FROM’
indication is displayed on the CDI, but course
guidance along the final approach course
continues. If a missed approach is required,
use the
SUSP
softkey to initiate the missed
approach sequence.
NOTE: When the message ‘RAIM is not avail-
able’ appears in the Alerts Window on the PFD
a missed approach must be executed. Refer to
section 1-1-20 in the Aeronautical Information
Manual (AIM) for information regarding RAIM.
