Cessna ARC Flight Director Input
When the EFD1000 is configured for ACU FD TYPE = 3 the ACU will accept Cessna ARC
Flight Director output levels emulating the G-550 Artificial Horizon Indicator.
NOTE: ACU Software Version A-02-178-1.1 or subsequent is required for the
G- 550A Flight Director emulation.
Pitch Scaling: 0Vdc = null, +0.5Vdc = 20º up, -0.5Vdc = 20º down
Roll Scaling: 0Vdc = null, +0.5Vdc = 20º right, -0.5Vdc = 20º left
Load: 6650 ohms across single ended input
Century Flight Director Input
When the EFD1000 is configured for ACU FD TYPE = 4 the ACU will accept Century
Flight Director output levels, emulating the 52C77 Flight Director.
NOTE: ACU Software Version A-02-178-1.1 or subsequent is required for the
52C77 Flight Director emulation.
Pitch Scaling: 6Vdc = null, 9Vdc = full up, 3Vdc = full down
Roll Scaling: 0Vdc = null, +10Vdc = full right, -10Vdc = full left
Load: 55000 ohms across differential input
