IFD Series Installation Manual

Notes to Installers:

The following important issues regarding the Avidyne 700-00182-XXX (IFD5XX), 700-00179-
XXX (IFD4XX), 700-00194-XXX (Atlas) Integrated Flight Display GPS/NAV/COM System
installation should be noted during the planning stages.

1. These installation instructions assume that the


GPS/NAV/COM transceiver and GPS antenna can be
installed in a structurally sound manner in accordance with
the installation manual and AC 43.13-( ). All the aircraft
certification requirements must remain in compliance.
2. Mounting the GPS antenna on composite and pressurized
aircraft requires engineering guidance beyond the scope of
this manual. With respect to the Approved Model List STC,
the physical mounting of the antenna is specifically
excluded from the approval in the case of installations on
the pressure vessel of pressurized aircraft, composite
aircraft, and aircraft with a certification basis of
Amendment 23-45 or later, unless approved installation data
is listed in the Master Document List of the STC. All early
amendment, metal construction, non-pressurized aircraft
antenna installations must be installed consistent with
accepted industry practices. The installation must be
structurally sound and in accordance with FAA Advisory
Circular 43.13-1B and 43.13-2B. All other antennas must be
mounted using the manufacturers' installation data.
3. An Electrical Load Analysis must be accomplished to
determine that the electrical limits of the specific aircraft are
not exceeded. The Electrical Load Analysis, Functional
Hazard Assessment and other certification requirements for
the aircraft must remain in compliance.
4. The IFD5XX/IFD4XX/ATLAS Forward Looking Terrain
Alerting is not a TSO-C151 system, and does not satisfy any
Part 91/135 TAWS requirements.
5. Prior to starting IFD5XX/IFD4XX/ATLAS installation, verify
the aircraft make and model is on the STC Approved Model
List (AML). Also, note any installation specific data for the
make and model in the AML.
6. IFD545, IFD550, and ATLAS may not be stored, or installed
in any aircraft that is expected to be stored, in areas where
the temperature is expected to be below -40°C
7. IFD545, IFD550, and ATLAS cannot be used as a required
attitude indicator and must only be used as a "secondary
(non -required) source of attitude information".
8. This Installation Manual is applicable to fixed wing
applications only. For Rotorcraft Part 27/29 reference the
IFD5XX/4XX Helicopter Installation Manual 600-00333-000.

1.11 GPS Fault Detection and Exclusion (FDE)


FDE software is part of all IFD systems and does not require any installer or pilot action to
operate. This FDE software is running at all times and if it detects an issue, it will alert the
pilot through Caution-Alerting System (CAS) messages.
When the IFD is installed per the directions in this Installation Manual, it complies with the
governing requirements for GPS Primary Means of Navigation in Oceanic and Remote
Airspace (more than 200 nm from the nearest airport), when used with any commercially
available RAIM/FDE Prediction Program. Examples of these prediction programs include
the FAA’s raimprediction.net, Fltplan.com, www.sapt.faa.gov, and the Garmin FDE
Prediction Program.
These programs only need to be run under the following scenarios for 14 CFR Parts 91, 121,
125, and 135 operations where the IFD is being used as the primary means of navigation and:
• TSO-C146d compliant antenna equipped aircraft that experience a
WAAS failure or when operating outside of SBAS coverage areas;
• Non-TSO-C146d compliant antenna equipped aircraft (e.g. TSO-
C129a only compliant systems) when operating in Oceanic and
Remote airspace, Enroute and Terminal airspace, or during any
LNAV/VNAV, LP, or LPV approach.
Prior to conducting Class II navigation (remote/oceanic), the owner/operator must obtain
operational approval for using the IFD system for long-range navigation from the
appropriate flight standards district office.

1.12 Terrain Alerting and Warning System


When the Terrain Awareness and Warning System (TAWS) option is enabled, the IFD
provides a TSO-C151d compliant TAWS-B function. TAWS-B does not require any external
equipment though an attached external annuciator panel will be driven by TAWS specific
cautions and warnings 1. TAWS is always running in the background, and does not have a
dedicated display page. TAWS-B contains the following sub-functions:

• Premature Descent Alert (PDA) – this function is designed to alert when the aircraft is
hazardously below the normal approach path for the nearest runway at either the origin
or destination airport
• Excessive Rates of Descent (EDR) – this function is designed to alert when the aircraft is
experiencing excessive rates of descent given the current AGL altitude. The alert can be
generated during any phase of flight
• Negative Climb Rate (NCR) or Altitude Loss After Takeoff/Go-Around – this function
is designed to alert when the aircraft develops a negative climb rate immediately after
takeoff or go-around or when an altitude loss is detected in that phase

• VOR, LOC, ILS instrument approach procedures (procedures using


VHF radio guidance)
• RNP instrument approach procedures using the following lines of
minima:
o LNAV minima (including when using advisory vertical
guidance from the system).
o LNAV/VNAV minima.
o LPV minima; and
o LP minima.

2.1.2.4 GPS Oceanic / Remote Navigation

All aircraft approved for GPS Oceanic/Remote navigation must have dual
electrical power/ground connections to both IFD units as shown in Section
4.9 and described in FAA AC 20-138() Appendix 1.

Note: All equipment required by 14 CFR 91.205 must be previously installed on the aircraft
for IFR operations.
Note: The IFD545, IFD550 and ATLAS cannot be used as a required attitude indicator.
Attitude information that can be displayed on these units may only be used as a
secondary (non -required) source of attitude information.
Note: It is imperative that only one source of terrain cautions, and warnings be enabled on
the airplane so as to avoid the potential for conflicting information to be presented to
the pilot. If a TAWS system is installed but the IFD's internal TA and FLTA functions
are to be used for terrain avoidance, the TAWS system must be fully disabled. If a
separate TAWS system is to be used the caution and warning indications generated by
the TAWS system can be displayed on a remote third-party annunciator and the IFD's
TA and FLTA displays, and audio must be inhibited. See section 7.5.4.

For those replacement installations, the existing aircraft tray and wiring may be reused.
However, some changes may be required as indicated below and described in this manual.

2.2.1 Circuit Breakers


Some aircraft may be required to replace the installed circuit breaker and power and ground
wiring to accommodate the IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas.

2.2.2 WAAS Enabled:


If the unit being replaced was a WAAS-enabled device, then the WAAS antennas previously
installed can be reused.

2.2.3 TAWS:
If the existing TAWS is to remain with the aircraft the IFD-5XX/4XX/Atlas shall not be used
to augment this information to the flight deck without additional approval.

600-00299-000 Page 51 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

The IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas unit is approved for TSO-C151d for TAWS -B operations. If the IFD
is replacing existing TAWS-B avionics, wiring changes may be required.

2.2.4 TAWS Audio:


If the unit being replaced was not a TAWS-enabled device, or if the TAWS Audio output
signals were not already connected to the aircraft audio panel(s), some additional wiring will
be required from the IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas tray to the aircraft audio panel(s) as identified in
Section 6.11.1 in order to supply IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas terrain alerting audio (Forward Looking
Terrain Alerting FLTA functionality) and TOD chime to the headsets.

2.2.5 Installation with Avidyne AXP340/322 Transponder:


For those installations that use a combined IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas – Avidyne AXP340/AXP322
Mode S ADS-B transponder, the on-ground/in-air discrete signal wire may need to be added
from the IFD5XX/4XX/Atlas tray to the AXP340/322 tray as identified in Section 6.12.

Note: Installations replacing an existing non-WAAS GPS/NAV/COM transceiver can


upgrade to a WAAS installation using section 3 of this manual.
Note: Installations replacing a GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W must verify the aircraft is on the
IFD5XX/4XX Approved Model List, Avidyne Document Number AVIFD-318 (Part 23)
or AVIFD-583 (Part 25).
Note: The IFD system supports a Honeywell KGP560/860 system with a remote third-party
. annunciator only. All other external TAWS/EGPWS systems must be disabled if the
internal TA and FLTA are to be operational on the IFD system.

3. Antenna Installation
This section describes the installation of the GPS, NAV, and Glideslope antennas on
unpressurized, metallic fuselage airplanes. The installer is responsible to ensure the
structural aspects of the installation meet all regulatory requirements and are adequate for
the aircraft type. Antenna installations on airplanes with composite or pressurized fuselages,
and aircraft with certification basis of Amendment 23-45 or later, are beyond the scope of this
manual and a separate installation approval is required.

3.1 Antenna Bonding


All antennas should be well bonded to the aircraft. Reference AC 43.13-2b paragraph 307 for
additional information.

3.2 Antenna Environmental Qualifications


Verify the antenna is appropriately qualified to be installed on the aircraft. Reference the
antenna manufacturer’s RTCA DO-160(x) qualification form.

3.3 GPS Antenna


The GPS Antenna should be installed using practices acceptable to the antenna and aircraft
manufacturers. Regulatory guidance for antenna installations can be found in AC 20-138( )
Chapter 12, AC 43.13-2B Chapter 3, and AC 43.13-1B Chapter 4. Also reference Appendix C
in this manual.
The GPS antenna listed in Table 39 can be installed on unpressurized metal airplanes with a
certification basis of Amendment 23-43, or earlier, using the data below. All other GPS
Antenna installations are beyond the scope of this manual and a separate installation
approval is required.
The Avidyne GPS antenna, Avidyne Part Number 200-00282-000, can be installed as shown
in Figure C - 6 through Figure C - 10. The GPS Antenna must be installed using the following
guidelines to be in compliance with the STC.
GPS Antenna Location:
• Fuselage skin must be 2024-T3 aluminum (or equivalent)
• Fuselage skin thicknesses beyond the range provided in
Table 44 below are outside the scope of this installation
• Selected antenna location may not be within one full bay of
other cutouts, skin joints, or load introduction points
• Doubler installation on, or adjacent to, primary or fatigue
critical structure, as defined by the aircraft manufacturer or
regulatory guidance, requires separate approval
• Evaluate the installation per AC43.13-2B, Chapter 3,
paragraph 303(b) for gaps due to fuselage curvature. If a
saddle is required, fabrication should be per AC 43.13-1B,
and should completely fill the curvature gaps, and should
not be riveted to the fuselage skin. The only purpose of the
saddle is to act as a tapered shim and is not intended to
transfer load into the skin

Doubler Fabrication:

600-00299-000 Page 63 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22

3.3.1 GPS Antenna Location


The following recommendations should be followed when choosing an installation location
for the GPS antenna. Prior to installing the GPS antenna, it is recommended to temporarily
mount the GPS antenna in the desired location and functional ground test the GPS system.
• The antenna must be mounted on the exterior upper fuselage of the
aircraft
• The GPS antenna should be mounted more than 2 feet from any
transmitting antenna.
• The GPS antenna should be mounted in a location that minimizes
the effects of shadowing by the aircraft structure.
• The GPS antenna should be installed more than 6 inches from any
other antenna, including another GPS antenna.
• The GPS antenna should be installed in a location that allows the
antenna to be level in normal cruise flight.

If installing an Avidyne GPS Antenna (Avidyne Part Number 200-00282-000), the GPS
antenna is qualified to be installed in aircraft lightning zone 2A as defined by SAE ARP5414A
and RTCA DO-160G. The No Installation Area can be determined using Figure 3 . The
distance found by using Figure 3 defines a zone immediately aft of the nose of the aircraft, or
propeller in the case of single engine propeller driven aircraft, where the GPS antenna should
not be installed. Aircraft locations aft of the No Installation Area are acceptable to install the
GPS antenna. Figure 4 below shows an example of the No Installation Area.

Figure 3 Distance to Aircraft Lightning Zone 2A

Procedure:
4. Determine the Maximum Cruising Speed (Vno) for the
aircraft. Note: Indicated Airspeed in knots (KIAS) must
be used in the table.
5. Locate the Airspeed for the aircraft on the Horizontal
Axis of the table. Draw a vertical line from the Airspeed
to the No Installation Area.
6. Draw a horizontal line from the No Installation Area,
found in Step 2, to the Vertical Axis on the chart.
7. Determine the Distance (in feet) to Aircraft Lightning
Zone 2A for the aircraft on the Vertical Axis.
Example:
For example, if an aircraft shown in Figure 4 has a Vno of
175 KIAS, the No Installation Area will be 7.2 feet. This
is shown on Figure 3 with a dotted line and Figure 4
with a shaded area.

Table 45 Approved GPS Antennas for SBAS Operation

The IFD can be interfaced to all TSO-C190 antennas and the approved antennas listed in the
table above. If connected to an approved WAAS Antenna, the IFD is approved for TSO-
C146d Gamma 3 operation.
The IFD5XX/4XX/ATLAS can be interfaced to non-WAAS antennas but the system will not
be approved for any type of WAAS operations. In this case, the Antenna Type selection as
described in Section 7.5.12 must be selected as “Non-WAAS”. This will result in the FMS
functionality of the IFD inhibiting selection of any WAAS (SBAS) approach in the database.
Installing a new GPS antenna listed in Table 45 requires additional structural approval
beyond the scope of this manual.

3.3.6 GPS Interference


After installing the IFD System, the GPS antenna must be tested to ensure no interference is
present. The GPS Antenna System is subject to interference from VHF COM transceiver,
Emergency Locator Transmitter (ELT) antenna, or Direction Finder (DF) receiver which can
radiate harmonics that can potentially interfere with the GPS antenna.
If a VHF Communication transceiver is found to be the problem, installing a 1.57542 GHz
notch filter may help to reduce the problem.

mechanical damage and minimize exposure to heat and fluids. Also, consider the following
when installing wire harnesses in the aircraft:
• In dual GPS installations, route wire harnesses separately to prevent dual GPS
failures
• Do not route harness near high power electrical lines
• Equipment should be installed with separation between redundant systems to
prevent loss of navigation due to a single event

4.4 Shield Grounds


All shield grounds should be grounded using the ground block on the IFD5XX/IFD4XX tray
backplate, or the ground screw on the Atlas chassis. Shield grounds should be as short as
possible (shorter than 3.0”, if possible)
Shield grounds on non-Avidyne equipment should be grounded per the manufacturer’s
installation instructions. In the absence of any installation data, the shield wires can be
connected to the connecter backshell or aircraft ground.

4.5 Wire Harness Overbraid


Copper overbraid is not required on the IFD wire harness. However, in the following cases,
copper overbraid is required.

4.5.1 Existing Equipment


If interfacing to any existing avionics equipment with copper overbraid over the wire
harness, it must be installed on all new wiring to that existing piece of equipment. The
copper overbraid must meet the specification in Section 4.5.3.

harness. This does not include the antenna coaxial cables. The copper overbraid must be
installed per Section 4.5.3.
The Approved Model List for the STC will indicate if an aircraft is required to install wire
harness overbraid on the IFD wiring. Note: Overbraid is not required on VFR only
installations as defined in Section 2.1.1.

4.5.3 Copper Overbraid Installation


The copper overbraid must be a minimum 90% optical coverage per ASTM-B-33. The
overbraid must be grounded at both ends. If the aircraft wiring passes through wire
disconnects or bulkheads, the overbraid should be continued on each segment.

4.7 Byteflight Digital Data Bus Consideration – Dual IFD Installations


Dual IFD installations use a Byteflight digital Databus protocol when connected via RS-232
Channel 3 and configured for CrossSync. The following must be considered for replacement
and new installations.

4.7.1 Databus Wiring - Replacement Installations


For installations that are replacing two previously connected GNS4XX/5XX systems, the
Byteflight digital Databus is capable of using the pre-existing wiring between the two pre-
existing trays with no additional wiring or modifications required. All bus termination is
built into the IFD units. However, the existing wire length on the CrossSync connection must
not exceed 8 feet in length on IFD RS-232 Channel 3 on P1001. Installations with longer
installation lengths between IFD units must use Byteflight cable. The ByteFlight wire is
available from Avidyne, reference Table 40.
Installations with significant amount of Byteflight data interruptions should consider
installing Byteflight cable.

4.7.2 Databus Wiring – New Installations


For all new installations of dual IFDs (not replacing pre-existing GNS4XX/5XX systems), the
recommended wiring for the RS-485 data protocol is shielded twisted- pair cable with an
approximate characteristic impedance of 100-120 Ohms. The wire material must meet 14 CFR
23.1359 (c).

4.8 Circuit Protection


Circuit Breakers must be installed in a location easily accessible to the pilot and must be
resettable trip free devices. The Circuit Breaker must be clearly identified and visible under
all lighting conditions. Circuit breaker size is identified in installation data shown in
Appendix D: Electrical Interface Drawings. Note that 14v aircraft may be required to replace
the installed circuit breaker and power wiring to accommodate the IFD.

4.9 Power Distribution

The installer is responsible for preservation of multiple power busses on the aircraft in
accordance with manufacturer's original design and the requirements of 14 CFR Part 23. This
includes maintaining electrical power to essential equipment.

4.10 Electrical Load Analysis


Prior to installing the IFD, an electrical load analysis (ELA) must be performed. The aircraft’s
electrical load should be less than 80% of the total generator output following the IFD
installation, reference Section 1.5 for IFD power requirements. Also reference FAA AC 43.13-
2B Paragraph 208 for more information on performing an aircraft electrical load analysis.
The purpose of the ELA is to show compliance to 14 CFR §23.1351 and §23.1353 (h).

4.11 Low Power Behaviors


The IFD can accept input power ranging from 9VDC to 33VDC but has the following low
power behaviors.
Functions are restored if the IFD input voltage rises 1VDC above threshold voltage for 1
second.

5. Mechanical Installation
This section will describe the physical mounting of the IFD in the aircraft.
Aircraft installing the IFD for VFR use only, as defined in Section 2.1.1, can install the IFD
unit in any location easily accessible to the pilot. However, the IFD installation must not
introduce any new hazards. All other installations must follow the guidance below.

5.1 Equipment Location – New Installations


If the IFD is used for IFR navigation, course deviation information and navigation
annunciation must be installed in the Pilot’s Field of View (FOV). The FAA has provided
clarification regarding the intent of TSO-C146 and acceptable source annunciation location,
navigation annunciation, and FOV requirements on similar products in the past. Therefore,
the installation data as follows must be followed to maintain compliance with the STC.
Otherwise, additional installation approval will be required.
Aircraft requiring two pilots must have this annunciation at each pilot station or
unobstructed view of the IFD display. The IFD should be located in a position easily reached
by both pilots.

5.1.1 Determining the Field of View


The navigation source selection (“GPS” or “VLOC”) field of view is approximately ±30° or
13.856" horizontally from the center of the attitude indicator, or centerline of the pilot's
seat/yoke. The navigation annunciation field of view is approximately ±35° or 16.805"
horizontally from the center of the attitude indicator. Both of these angles and distances are
determined with the pilot seated at a minimum of 24" from the instrument panel. For aircraft
without a basic instrument 'T' or an offset control yoke/control, use the center of the pilot's
seat as the primary view centerline.
The vertical field of view will be from the top of the instrument panel to the portion of the
instrument panel that is immediately below the basic 'T' instruments, reference Figure 9.
Note, if the existing type certified HSI/CDI/PFD is lower than the basic 'T', use that as the
lower limit.
Figure 9 below indicates the acceptable field of view for the IFD5XX/4XX. If the
IFD5XX/4XX can be installed in this area, remote navigation annunciation is not required. If
the IFD5XX/4XX cannot be installed within the acceptable field of view, the installation must
have navigation annunciations installed per Section 5.1.2.
Note: The dimensions shown in Figure 9 and Figure 10 for the IFD5XX also apply to the
IFD4XX.
NOTE: Atlas units mounted in center console positions will fall outside of the required field
of view for annunciations. Panel mounted annunciators are required in the prescribed field of
view.

IFD Series Installation Manual

Figure 9 Field of View

5.1.2 Navigation Annunciation


The navigation annunciations listed in Table 48 must be installed in the Pilot's Field of view.
This may be accomplished in several ways. The following are acceptable:
• Use Navigation Annunciation on an existing Primary Flight
Display or Horizontal Situation Indicator located in the
Pilot's primary field of view. CDI/HSI indicators with
navigation annunciation is acceptable (e.g. GI 106, MD200-
306, or similar). The CDI/HSI must be located within the
primary field of view.
• If the IFD5XX/4XX is located within the acceptable field of
view, as shown in Figure 9, external annunciation is not
needed
• Install external annunciation lights in the acceptable field of
view, as shown in Figure 10.

5.1.3 Course Deviation Indicator


The course deviation information must be located in the Pilot's Primary Field of view if the
IFD is used for IFR navigation. Installation of a CDI/HSI requires a separate installation
approval.

5.1.4 Instrument Panel Cutout


The IFD5XX and IFD4XX tray is designed to be installed on the backside of the instrument
panel. The instrument panel requires either a 6.320" x 4.600" or 6.320" x 2.70" hole for the
IFD5XX or IFD4XX respectively. If the instrument panel in the aircraft is considered primary
structure, additional installation approval will be required for the instrument panel cutout.
The installer is responsible to ensure the structural aspects of this installation meet the
requirements of AC 43.13-2B, Chapter 11, Paragraph 1104(a).

5.1.5 Requirements for Tray Installation


The Avidyne Tray must be installed in the aircraft as described below in order to satisfy the
structural requirements for the STC. Deviations to these requirements will require separate
approval.
1. Rear Tray Support (Instrument Panel)
a. The existing instrument panel must be fabricated from 2024-
T3 aluminum with a minimum thickness of 0.050" (Note:
equivalent or stronger is acceptable). The tray brackets must
be fabricated from 3/4" x 3/4" x 1/16" 2024-T3 aluminum
angle for mounting the tray, as shown in Figure C - 1 and
Figure C - 2.
b. If new components are fabricated, the fabrication methods
must follow the requirements of FAA Advisory Circular
43.13-1B, Chapter 4 for general airframe fabrication criteria,
including hole tolerances, edge distances, rivet spacing, and

Chapters 2 and 11 for structural adequacy.
2. Forward Tray Support
a. The Avidyne Tray must have forward support brackets,
reference Figure C - 1 or Figure C - 2. The forward support
brace must be 0.032” 5052-H32 aluminum. (Note: equivalent
or stronger is acceptable)
b. If new forward support brackets are fabricated, the
fabrication methods must follow the requirements of either
Figure C - 1 or Figure C - 2, FAA Advisory Circular 43.13-
1B, Chapter 4 for general airframe fabrication criteria,
including hole tolerances, edge distances, rivet spacing, and
corrosion protection, and Advisory Circular 43.13-2B,
Chapters 2 and 11 for structural adequacy.
The IFD5XX tray should be installed using six #6-32 100o flat head screws and self-locking
nuts. The IFD4XX tray should be installed using four #6-32 100o flat head screws and self-
locking nuts.

IFD Series Installation Manual

5.2 Equipment Location - Replacement Unit


If the IFD is being installed as replacement unit on a previously approved IFR installation,
the existing installation location is acceptable and does not require any changes.

5.3 Angle of Regard


The IFD5XX/4XX should be mounted in a location where the viewing angle of the display
does not exceed the following angles: Note: the reference plane for these measurements is the
unit itself:
• From the Left: 45°
• From the Right: 45°
• From the Top: 35°
• From the Bottom: 15°
The Atlas should be mounted in a location where the viewing angle of the display does not
exceed the following angles:
• From the Left: 45°
• From the Right: 45°
• From the Top: 15°
• From the Bottom: 35°

5.4 Unit Installation/Removal


The IFD5XX/4XX should be installed using 3/32-inch hex drive tool. The hex drive is
inserted into the hole in the front bezel.
The Atlas should be installed in an existing dzus rail console or rack using an appropriately
sized flat blade tool. The 4 dzus fasteners engage or release with a quarter turn.

5.5 Internal Cooling


The IFDXXX units have several internal fans and heat sinks as part of their basic design. The
IFDXXX units have intake and exhaust vents on the left and right sides of the chassis with cut
outs in the tray to facilitate venting. The left and right sides of the front bezel have intake
louvers to help pull ambient cockpit air through the unit. The IFDXXX will benefit from
keeping these vents clear of all obstructions.
The Atlas units have intake and exhaust vents on the top and bottom of the chassis and a few
louvers on the back of the head unit.
While not necessary, if installation flexibility permits, the units will benefit from these intake
and exhaust vents remaining as clear as feasible. In some cases failure to do so can cause an
over-temp condition.

5.6 External Cooling


The IFD does not require external cooling; however, additional cooling may prolong product
life. A 5/8” diameter air fitting is provided in the rear of the IFD mounting tray, if forced air
cooling is installed.

600-00299-000 Page 82 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

IFD installations in a tightly packed avionics stack should consider installing an electric
avionics cooling fan. As a minimum, plan to leave space for clear intake and exhaust venting
when able. If a fan is installed, ensure the intake air flow to the fan is not located near the
exhaust of other fans or near other hot equipment.
In the event the system feels excessively hot or if an Overtemp Caution Advisory System
message is presented on the display, there are some diagnostic tools provided in the IFD to
assist in finding more optimal cooling installations. In Maintenance Mode, select the “Status”
tab along the bottom edge of the display and then press the “Info” Line Select Key as needed
until “Temps” is displayed. Note the hottest source(s) on that page and supply that
information to Avidyne Technical Support to include both the source and the associated
temperature for follow-on guidance. If a Red CAS message is displayed at an time with the
warning, “UNIT OVERTEMP UNIT UNRELIABLE” the IFD must return to Avidyne for
servicing.
The metal bezel of the IFD is intentionally designed to radiate heat away from the internal
components and out of the unit. This can have the effect of a bezel that may be warm to the
touch. This is considered normal. Note that the rubber bezel buttons will not conduct this
heat and should not be warm. This condition will be more noticeable on hot days or during
long ground runs.

5.7 Electrical Bonding


The electrical bonding between the IFD5XX/IFD4XX tray or the Atlas rear ground screws
and aircraft ground should be ≤ 10 milliohm.

5.8 Aircraft Considerations


Installing wires or antennas on a pressurized aircraft, composite aircraft, or with an aircraft
certification basis of Amendment 23-45 or later is beyond the scope of this manual and
requires additional installation approval, unless the aircraft model is listed on the STC AML.

5.9 Weight and Balance


After installing the IFD, the aircraft’s weight and balance must be updated after installation is
complete.
For those installations where an IFD5XX/4XX is replacing a GNS530/430 (any variant), since
the IFD is within 5% of the weight of the removed GNS530/430 (less than 1 pound
difference), no new weight and balance must actually be performed according to AC 43.13-1B
Change 1 Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices Aircraft Inspection and Repair
(Chapter 10) and AC 120-27E Aircraft Weight and Balance Control.

5.10 Compass Safe Distance


The IFD should be installed 12” or more away from the aircraft’s magnetic compass. Perform
an aircraft compass swing/calibration after completing the IFD installation.
Note: The 12” minimum distance is a TSO-driven value that is designed to ensure the unit
will have no impact on the aircraft compass. If an installation is made where this distance is
less than 12”, then a compass swing/calibration must be accomplished after completing the
IFD installation.

Some legacy autopilots require a “delayed ILS” discrete input. This function is used to
prevent an autopilot from engaging too quickly upon glideslope capture. The output
prevents the autopilot from an immediately pitch up or down to center the glideslope needle.
Rockwell Collins VIR-30/32/432/433 VHF navigation sensors have this discrete output. It is
incorporated to switch an external relay in the flight guidance system when an ILS frequency
is selected, otherwise it is an open.
When replacing one of the radios listed above, it is imperative to determine if the delayed ILS
output is being used with the installed autopilot.
To accomplish this function using an IFD or Atlas:
ILS/GPS Approach: P1001 Pin 14 will replace this existing output.
ILS Approach: P1006 Pin 29 for VHF approach sensor approach operations only (see
Table 51).

7. Configuration and Checkout


After completing installation, a complete installation checkout should be performed.
Complete the following sections to verify the installation is installed correctly. Prior to
configuring the IFD unit, the following checks should be performed.

7.1 Wiring Check


Verify wiring is properly installed and secured. Verify the wiring does not interfere with the
flight controls. Verify all wiring connected to IFD is connected correctly to the unit. Caution:
Failure to properly connect aircraft wiring to the IFD may result in damage to the IFD or to
the equipment connected to the IFD.

7.2 Mounting Check


Verify the IFD5XX/IFD4XX tray is securely installed to the airframe.
For Atlas units, verify all Dzus fasteners are fully latched and the Atlas is securely mounted
to the Dzus rails.

7.3 Chassis ID Setting


For dual IFD installations, it is imperative that the proper Chassis ID settings are established
for each IFD via dip switches located along the right side of the IFD outer chassis. Not doing
so will result in multiple error messages and degraded performance when two or more IFDs
are installed in an airplane.

Figure 11 IFD DIP Switches

At installation time, determine which IFD is to be designated as IFD #1 and which is to be


designated as IFD #2 (Note, there is no operational difference, This is a Databus address
assignment necessity). Set the side chassis ID dip switches per the table below:

IFD #2 ↓ ↑ ↑ (down, up, up)

Table 94 DIP Switch Configuration

7.4 Unit Installation


Install IFD5XX/IFD4XX unit in the tray using the captive 3/32” Hex screw. Verify the
connectors are fully engaged prior to powering on the unit.
Install the Atlas in the Dzus rail using an appropriately sized flat blade tool after verifying
the connectors are latched.

7.5 Configuration
The IFD can be configured in the aircraft. This section will describe the procedures for
configuring the IFD.
Configuration consists of setting up communication protocols in Maintenance Mode,
designating specific types of equipment to be integrated and setting up system settings.
Configuration also consists of setting up User Options preferences in non-Maintenance Mode
via the SYS tab of the AUX page.
For new installations, use this section to configure the IFD for the specific airplane.
For replacement installations in which the IFD5XX/4XX is replacing a GNS 530/W or GNS
430/W, use Appendix F: Configuration Setup of this manual to first record the configuration
of the GNS530/W or GNS430/W that is being replaced by the IFD and then using that
recorded data, use the IFD Maintenance Mode pages as defined in this section and Appendix
F: Configuration Setup to properly set up and record configurations.

7.5.1 Maintenance Mode


The Maintenance Mode can be accessed by using the following procedures (on the ground
only):
1. Power on the IFD
2. Acknowledge all start up screens by pressing “Enter”
3. Press Proceed Line Select Key (LSK) followed by the Confirm LSK on the database
acknowledgement screen (if shown)
4. Select the “AUX” function key to display the Auxiliary Page. Press on the right side
of the “AUX” Function key until the “SYS” tab is shown
5. Select “Status/Software” LSK by pressing associated button until “Update
Databases” appears. (If shown)
6. Select “Update Databases” LSK by pressing the associated button. Press the
“Confirm” LSK after it appears. The screen will blank for several seconds before
coming up in Maintenance Mode

7.5.2 Password PIN Page


7.5.2.1 Enabling or ignoring the password protection feature

A new feature with release 10.2.4.1 or greater is the ability to protect the configuration pages
in maintenance mode with a PIN number. On page 1 of the config tab, you will see
“Password Protection PIN” as shown in the picture below. Entering a 4-digit PIN on this
page IS NOT REQUIRED. If you do not want to protect the configuration settings do not
enter a PIN and simply move on to the remaining configuration pages. If you do enter a PIN
make sure that you save it because once the configuration pages are set up, they cannot be
changed without first entering the PIN number.

7.5.2.2 Password protection PIN Page

If you have chosen to enter a PIN on page 1 of the Config tab you will see the PIN number in
the Enter PIN text box and directly below you will see “Current PIN: followed by the PIN
number entered. See the picture below. Once the PIN is entered continue configuring the
remaining pages and after exiting maintenance mode the configurations cannot be changed
without first entering the PIN.

7.5.2.3 Forgotten PIN


If you are making changes to the Config pages that are PIN protected and have not entered
the correct PIN prior to making the changes you will see the title of the Config page and
directly underneath the title in yellow lettering “PASSWORD-PROTECTED” see the picture
below. If you see this none of the changes you make will be retained. If you have forgotten
the PIN or do not know the PIN contact Avidyne Technical Support at
[email protected] and a .dsf file will be sent to you to clear the PIN.

Note: It is imperative that only one source of terrain cautions and warnings be enabled
on the airplane so as to avoid the potential for conflicting information to be
presented to the pilot. If a TAWS system is installed but the IFD's internal TA and
FLTA functions are to be used for terrain avoidance, the TAWS system must be
fully disabled. If a separate TAWS system is to be used the caution and warning
indications generated by the TAWS system can be displayed on a remote third
party annunciator and the IFD's TA and FLTA displays and audio must be
inhibited.
Note: The IFD system supports Honeywell EGPWS systems with a remote third party
annunciator only. All other external TAWS/EGPWS systems must be disabled if
the internal TA and FLTA are to be operational on the IFD system.

7.5.7 Main Lighting Configuration


The source of the lighting for the IFD can be the bezel photocell sensor or the dimming bus.
28VDC, 14VDC, 5VDC and 5VAC dimming buses are all supported and are automatically
detected by the IFD.

Figure 15 Main Lighting Configuration Page

Photo Response Time


Sets the speed at which the brightness changes when photocell is selected as the lighting
source. Both the Bezel and Display fields have a range of 1 to 5, and the factory default is 3.
Photo Slope
The Photo Slope sets the sensitivity of the display/bezel to changes in the input when the
dimming source is the IFD photocell. This field has a range of 15 to 100, and the factory
default is 80.
Photo Minimum
The Photo Minimum sets the minimum brightness when the dimming source is the photocell.
Both the Bezel and Display fields have a range of 1 to 50, and the factory default is 1.
Photo Maximum
The Photo Maximum sets the maximum brightness when the dimming source is the
photocell. Both the Bezel and Display fields have a range of 50 to 100, and the factory
default is 100.
dimBus Transition %
The dimBus Transition % sets the threshold where the aircraft dimming bus takes over from
the photocell. Below this threshold, the aircraft dimmer controls the IFD lighting. Both the
Bezel and Display fields have a range of 0 to 100, and the factory default is 10.

600-00299-000 Page 140 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

Note: If it is not desired to hand brightness control over to the dimming bus from the
photocell at any point, set dimBus Transition % to 0 (zero). Doing so will prevent the
scenario where, in increasingly darker environments (e.g. flying past sunset into dark night),
the display automatically dims and dims and dims and then suddenly jumps to bright.
dimBus Slope
The dimBus Slope sets the sensitivity of the display/bezel to the aircraft dimmer. Both the
Bezel and Display fields have a range of 15 to 100, and the factory default is 60.
Note: Previous to Release 10.1.1.0, a dimBus slope value of 100 on the AviCurve resulted in a
maximum brightness value of 21%. In Release 10.1.1.0 and later, a slope value of 100 will
result in 100% maximum brightness.
dimBus Minimum
The dimBus Minimum sets the minimum brightness when the aircraft dimmer is the
dimming source. Both the Bezel and Display fields have a range of 1 to 50, and the factory
default is 1.
dimBus Maximum
The dimBus Maximum sets the maximum brightness when the aircraft dimmer is the
dimming source. Both the Bezel and Display fields have a range of 50 to 100, and the factory
default is 100.
dimBus Curve
The dimBus Curve sets the aircraft dimming bus to either a Proportional Curve or AviCurve
on the IFD.
The Proportional Curve tracks the aircraft lighting bus as follows: Maximum night lighting at
maximum aircraft lighting bus voltage, Minimum night lighting at minimum aircraft lighting
bus voltage (linear in-between).
The AviCurve tracks the aircraft dimming bus as follows:

7.5.15 GPS Legacy Avionics System (GLAS)

Description:
GLAS (GPS Legacy Avionics System) is a paid for software unlock that enables legacy
avionics that are “pre-WAAS” to fly GPS approaches with vertical guidance via the
existing EFIS A429 short range navigation (SRN)/VLOC input channel utilizing Avidyne
proprietary software.
During GPS Approach operations, the IFD or Atlas communicates the selected GPS
approach guidance on a dedicated ARINC 429 VLOC output channel. The result is
displayed and coupled flight guidance information for GPS approaches utilizing the EFIS
FGS SRN input channel(s).
With the GLAS option configured, the A429 VLOC TX/RX ports on P1006 are high speed
/ low speed configurable. The IFD P1050 connector also supports a dedicated GLAS
A429 out channel where dual channeling is required.

Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

The A429 GLAS settings in the IFD/Atlas will not work if GLAS enablement is not
unlocked.

Approach Capabilities:
With the appropriately rated TSO-C190 GPS antenna installed and the IFD/Atlas
configured correctly, GPS approach capabilities include the following:
LNAV: Lateral Guidance only. Standard GPS precision 0.3NM deflection
LNAV+V: Lateral Navigation w/ Advisory Vertical Guidance
LNAV/VNAV: Lateral and Vertical Navigation
LP: Localizer Performance (no vertical guidance)
LP+V: Localizer Performance w/ Advisory Vertical Guidance
LPV: Localizer Precision with Vertical Guidance.

Configuration:
There are two GLAS configuration options: Of these two, Proline VHF/GPS is only used
when the IFD/Atlas on-board radio is not installed (IFD510/545).

VHF/GPS 429
When using the VHF/GPS 429 configuration, the IFD uses its internal VHF
navigation sensor data up until a GPS approach is active. At this point
“pseudo-ILS” data based on GPS deviations replaces the VLOC data.

Proline VHF/GPS
In situations where the IFD onboard VHF navigation is not installed
(FMS+VCom or FMS only), or when the VHF navigation is not being utilized
and turned off from the maintenance mode, the IFD can be inserted in the
middle of the communication chain between the aircraft’s existing VHF
navigation sensor and the EFIS/FGS systems for the purpose of overriding the
existing VHF nav data.

For this application the existing A429 VLOC data is interrupted. The
information from the existing SRN sensor is then passed through the IFD for
management. @@@

The Maintenance Mode Stormscope Test page is accessible from the Maintenance Mode
Config Tab when one set of the RS232 ports has been configured as WX-500 and at least one
power cycle has been executed since configuration.
Stormscope Test page contains the following LSKs: Change Mode, Strikes Clear, Get Data

Change Mode LSK - Changes to the Stormscope test mode as shown in the LSK. The mode
selected will be returned by the WX-500 and will display within the strike display. Repeated
presses of the Change Mode LSK will step through each of the modes, cycling back to the
first mode in the list (Weather).
These are the Stormscope test modes:
• Weather - basically a fixed heading version of normal flight mode - will display real
lightning strikes if any are generated.
• Noise - similar to Weather mode but with the WX-500 sensitivity set to determine
where excess noise might be generated.
• Strike Test - a target displaying test strikes as generated by a WX-500 strike
generating test set.
• Demo - similar to Weather mode with the strikes generated internally by the WX-
500's Demo mode.
• Self-Test - executes the WX-500 internal Self-Test sequence which will return to
Weather mode after 10 seconds.

Strikes Clear LSK - Pressing this LSK will send a "clear strikes" command to the WX-500,
clearing its internal buffer of strikes.

Get Data LSK -Pressing the Get Data LSK will Download Data from the WX-500. The
Stormscope Downloadable Data page will display ASCII data as retrieved verbatim from the
Stormscope. Repeated presses of the Get Data LSK will step through each of the
Downloadable Data modes, cycling back to the first mode in the list (SW Version).
These are the Stormscope Downloadable Data modes:
• SW Version - displays the WX-500 Main SW Version / Main Boot SW Version / DSP
SW Version
• Config - displays the WX-500 configuration settings (Serial Jumpers, Hdg Valid Flag,
Flag Sense, Hdg Value, Inhibit Line and Antenna Mount).
• Environment - displays the WX-500 environmental parameters (voltages and
processor temp)

7.5.25 GAD 42 Configuration


The IFD can be connected to the Garmin GAD42 Interface Adapter but there is no dedicated
GAD42 configuration page in the IFD.
If the IFD is replacing a GNS530/W or GNS430/W that had previously been connected to a
GAD42, then no action is required since the configuration is already saved in the GAD42.
If this is a new installation of an IFD (i.e. not replacing an existing GNS530/W or
GNS430/W) or if the GAD42 had to be replaced for service, then the GAD42 must be
configured via a manual strapping method as described in Garmin P/N 190-00159-00 GAD42
Installation Manual, Section 5.1.
If the IFD displays a “GAD 42 Needs Service” message, return the GAD 42 unit to the
manufacturer.

IFD Series Installation Manual

7.6 Checkout
After configuring the IFD, the following post-installation tasks should be performed.

7.6.1 Database Check


Verify the Navigation, Chart, and Obstacle databases are up to date. If the databases need to
be updated, reference the IFD Pilot’s Guide or Section 10.1 for update procedures.

7.6.2 Airplane Flight Supplement Check


Complete and install the IFD Airplane Flight Manual Supplement in the aircraft’s Flight
Manual or Pilot’s Operating Manual.

7.6.3 Instructions for Continued Airworthiness


Complete and install the IFD Instruction for Continued Airworthiness in the aircraft
maintenance records.

7.6.4 Aircraft Weight and Balance


Update the Aircraft’s Weight and Balance in the aircraft records.
For those installations where an IFD5XX/4XX is replacing a similar equipped GNS530 or
GNS430 (a like variant) no weight and balance must actually be performed. If a GPS only
Garmin unit is being replaced with a full featured IFD5XX/4XX, the weight change is more
than one pound and a weight and balance must be prepared.
Since a full featured IFD5XX/4XX is within 5% of the weight of the removed GNS530/430
(less than 1 pound difference), no new weight and balance must actually be performed
according to AC 43.13-1B Change 1 Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices Aircraft
Inspection and Repair (Chapter 10) and AC 120-27E Aircraft Weight and Balance Control.

7.6.5 Electrical Load Analysis


Verify the aircraft's electrical load is within limits, reference Section 4.10.

7.6.6 GPS Signal Acquisition


After installation, position the aircraft outside with clear unobstructed view of the sky. Verify
the IFD acquires and calculates a GPS position. Verify no interference from other aircraft
equipment is observed (e.g. TCAS, SATCOM, etc)

9. Glove Validation Procedures


Many types of gloves can be used with the IFD touch screen display. The key parameter for
the effectiveness of a glove with touch screen is the distance between the finger and the glass
and to a lesser extent, the type of material separating the skin from the glass. The thinner the
glove or the more compatible the material (e.g. leather, fine cotton, etc), the greater the
likelihood of success will be. Likewise, the more surface area that comes in contact with the
glass, the greater the success may be. Each glove must be qualified for compatibility with the
display and those glove calibration procedures (specific to the glove and the pilot
combination) are immediately below. If all verification steps are marked as a “Pass” then the
glove/pilot combination is considered to be a qualified pair.

Pilot Name
Description of Glove

10. Software and Database Update Procedures

10.1 Data Updates


Periodic updates to navigation data, charts data, and obstacle data are all made through the
USB port on the front of each IFD. Updates must be performed in accordance with 14 CFR
Part 43, Appendix A (c) and FAA AC 20-153( ) paragraph 11.
The table below summarizes the databases update periods:

Database Update Comments & Source


Cycle
Chart Data 14 days Expiration watermark displayed after 14 days indefinitely
until data updated (Jeppesen) (N/A for IFD4XX)
Nav Data 28 days Airport, airway, navaid, airspace, and FMS data (Jeppesen)
Obstacle 56 days Displayed on map and used for TA and FLTA functions
Data (Jeppesen)
Terrain As required Displayed on map and used for TA and FLTA functions.
Data The IFD is shipped from the factory with this database
already loaded and updates are anticipated to be a rare
occurrence.

Table 144 Database Update Cycle

In the event the terrain data ever needs updating, this is also performed through the front
panel USB port.
Use one of the formatted fobs supplied by Avidyne (marked by the Avidyne logo printed on
one side). In the event one of those fobs are not available, either call Avidyne for a
replacement fob (a nominal fee will be charged) or purchase a replacement through other
means. Most USB drives that can be formatted using FAT32 will be acceptable.
To perform a data update, ensure the data to be updated is placed onto one of the acceptable
USB fobs. Carefully insert the USB fob into the IFD USB slot while power is turned off. When
the IFD is powered up it should start in maintenance mode. If the IFD does not start in
maintenance mode, select the “Setup” tab of the SYS page and then pick the “Update
Databases” LSK.

Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

For multiple IFD installations, the database uploads must be performed individually for each
IFD to be updated.
Due to some of the upload durations, Avidyne recommends creating a fob for each IFD to be
updated so that the updates can happen in parallel and not stacked serially, thereby
extending the overall time to accomplish a full update.
A clear indication is presented when the data uploads have been completed. Likewise, if the
USB fob was removed prior to finishing the data upload, an error message will be presented
and the entire process will need to be manually restarted once the fob is reinserted in the IFD.

Figure 42 Update Complete Indication

When you are all done press the “Done” LSK, which will restart the IFD into flight mode.
Remove the USB fob and perform a normal start up. It is highly recommended to verify the
data was updated from the “Setup” LSK of the SYSTEM tab on the AUX page.
If an IFD is in normal operating mode (not maintenance mode), the presence of a USB fob is
ignored.

10.2 Datalogs Download


There is extensive data-logging that is automatically done on all IFDs. These datalogs can be
accessed post-flight and used for a number of purposes.
There are five types of datalogs employed in the IFDs:
• System Log – This log provides an in-depth record of the
navigation state. From this log, you can re-create many aspects
of the FMS output and IFD state. It logs at a rate of
approximately 1Hz.
• Flight Log – This log provides a detailed record of your aircraft
state as measured by the various IFD sensors. It logs at a rate of
approximately 5Hz.

600-00299-000 Page 184 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

• Engine Log – This log provides details on fuel flow sensor data
(if configured). It logs at a rate of approximately ¼ Hz.
• Event Log – This log contains miscellaneous data such as all
alerts, keystrokes, flight plan data, system status and error
messages, etc. It is designed to be diagnostics log for Avidyne
Service Center technicians and not expected to be used by
owners/operators. It logs at an on-condition rate.
• Voltage Log – This log contains internal diagnostic data such as
the voltages and currents on sub-system boards, temperatures
and internal fan status. It logs at a rate of approximately 1Hz.
• Download Configuration Info - This log contains the system
configuration for the unit.
• GPS Log - This log contains detailed internal state data for the
GPS.

The “Download Logs” LSK is presented when “Software” is selected on the SYS tab and the
system is not in-air. When the “Download Logs” LSK is pressed, a pair of Confirm/Cancel
LSKs are presented. Selecting Confirm will launch the Maintenance Mode of the IFD. From
Maintenance Mode, press the right side of the AUX page function key to select the “Logs”
tab. Ensure a USB fob is inserted in the IFD front bezel USB port and then use a combination
of the left side LSKs and the bottom right IFD knob to select the desired combination of logs
and type of action to perform.

Figure 43 Datalogs Download Page

Pressing the “Proceed” LSK will immediately start downloading all logs listed in the center
of the page with green check marks adjacent to them. If only a subset of the logs are to be
downloaded, use the “Un-Select All” LSK to deselect all logs and then use the bottom right
IFD knob to highlight the desired log and push in to generated a green check mark.
The “Logs” LSK on that Maintenance Mode page provides two options for downloading this
data via dedicated LSKs. The first option (“Since Last”) downloads the data logged since the
last time a download was completed. Since the logs contain a large amount of data, the Since
Last option will be a quicker option in almost every case. The second option (“Full”) allows a
download of all data logs onto the USB fob. The Full option can take up to 45 minutes to an
hour to complete.

600-00299-000 Page 185 of 305 Revision: 24


Date: 03/23/22
IFD Series Installation Manual

Download times are highly dependent on the number and types of logs being downloaded
and how long it’s been since the last download and whether you are downloading Since Last
or Full. Times can range from a few seconds to more than 45 minutes. The more often logs
are downloaded, the shorter the download times will be.
In order to provide an indication of download progress, a progress bar will be presented with
both a symbolic aircraft indicating download in progress and a % complete estimate. The files
to be downloaded can have one of several states – “OK”, “In progress…”, “Pending”,
“Skipped”, “Active”, “Failed”.
When downloaded to the USB fob, the data logs will be saved in .csv files. This can be
imported into newer versions of Microsoft Excel into a table format. The data can then be
plotted or analyzed by several 3rd party tools. Note that files can easily contain 50MB or
more of data.

10.3 Software Update


The following procedures should be followed when performing optional or mandatory
software change to the IFD System:
1. Acquire the software image and associated loading procedure
from the manufacturer.
2. Verify the software part number configuration before and after
maintenance is performed on the airborne equipment using the
loading procedure instructions.
3. It is the responsibility of maintenance personnel to ensure the
identified part is recorded in the necessary maintenance logs.
4. It is the maintenance personnel’s responsibility to ensure that the
software part identification has been logged. When new
software is loaded into the unit, the correct software part
number should be verified according to the instructions
accompanying the software change before the unit is returned to
service. Hardware versions are identified on the data label by a
Rev number following the main part number.

Changes to software part number, version, and/or operational characteristics should be


reflected in the Operator’s Manual, Aircraft Flight Manual, Aircraft Flight Manual
Supplement, and/or any other appropriate document.

13. Bezel and Display Cleaning


If the IFD screen should become dirty due to fingerprints or dust, clean the screen using the
following materials and methods:
A clean, soft lint-free cloth such as 3M Ultra-Brite Cloth #2011 or similar.
A cleaning solution composed of a 1:1 ratio of de-ionized water and isopropyl alcohol (IPA).
Use caution, as it may be flammable. Always apply the cleaning solution directly on the
cloth. Never spray cleaner directly on the screen.
In general, isopropyl alcohol is a safe and effective cleaner. Methanol and most acidic
solutions can be toxic or damaging to glass coatings if misused.
Excessive or unnecessary cleaning should be avoided to prevent damage to the coated optical
filter surfaces. Never allow excess amounts of cleaning agents to dry if they have formed into
pools, streaks or droplets to help avoid spotting of the glass surface.
The use of any 3rd party screen protector, especially those that adhere directly to the IFD
display glass, is not endorsed by Avidyne due to the touch-screen nature of the display and
may void the warranty for any display related issue.

NOTES:

1. ALL WIRES TO BE 24 AWG OR GREATER UNLESS OTHERWISE NOTED.

2
. IF AIRCRAFT HAS MULTIPLE POWER BUSSES, IT IS RECOMENDED THAT IFD/ATLAS
POWER CONNECTIONS BE CONNECTED AS DESCRIBED IN SECTION 4.

3
AIRCRAFT POWER INPUT TO THE IFD MAY BE 9-33 VDC.

4
. THE IFD SHOULD BE CONFIGURED FOR THE CORRECT LIGHTING BUS VOLTAGE POST-
INSTALLATION. NO DAMAGE WILL OCCUR IF THE UNIT IS CONFIGURED INCORRECTLY.
IN ADDITION, LIGHTING CAN BE SET TO AUTOMATICALLY COMPENSATE FOR AMBIENT
LIGHTING CONDITIONS USING ITS LIGHT SENSOR. A MANUAL LIGHTING CONTROL
OPTION IS ALSO AVAIABLE. REFER TO THE POST-INSTALLATION CONFIGURATION
PROCEDURE. LIGHTING BUS INPUTS ARE NOT DIFFERENTAL. LIGHTING BUS LOW
MUST BE TIED TO GROUND IN ALL CASES. FAILURE TO ADHERE TO THIS WILL RESULT
IN DAMAGE TO THE IFD/ATLAS..

5

GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W Maintenance Mode Entry:


GNS-530 configuration data is accessed from the GNS-530/W Maintenance Mode settings which is entered via holding
ENTR button on 530/W bezel during power application.
GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W Page Navigation:
Use the inner right knob on the GNS-530/W to scroll through the maintenance mode pages. Each clockwise click of the
knob selects the next page. On pages where selectable fields exist, a push of the right knob will produce a flashing cursor.
The outer right knob moves through the fields on a page when there is a flashing cursor. Twist the inner right knob
clockwise to see a list of choices. Use the inner right knob to scroll through the list of choices and press the “ENT” button
to select the desired choice.
IFD Maintenance Mode Entry:
IFD configuration data is accessed via Mx Mode which is entered by starting the IFD with a USB Fob already installed or
selecting the AUX page, SYS tab, ensuring that the “Select” LSK = Software, and then pressing the “Download Logs” LSK,
followed by the “Confirm” LSK. These tables contain all the data that can be entered at time of installation to ensure the
IFD is properly configured. There are additional setup options that selectable by the pilot (Display Options on AUX
Setup tab) that are not documented here.
IFD Page Navigation:
To reach the IFD pages on which this data is to be entered, select the CONFIG tab in Maintenance Mode. Use the outer
right knob to select the page – each clockwise click of the outer right knob selects the next page in the list. Push the right
knob in to generate a cursor and then use the outer right knob to select an individual field with the cursor. Then twist the
inner right knob to scroll through the selectable options for that field and push in the right knob when done with each
field selection.

For retrofit installations (those installations in which an IFD is replacing a GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W), enter the data in
the following tables/menu pages from the corresponding fields recorded below in the GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W tables
on the left side of each page. Repeat for each retrofit IFD.
For new installations (those installations in which an IFD is NOT replacing a GNS-530/W or GNS-430/W), select and
record the appropriate settings for each configuration page per the descriptive material below each table.
