Chapter 4
Reference Guide
The PFD is a panel-mounted Electronic Flight Instrument System (EFIS)
that presents the pilot with displays of attitude, altitude, indicated
airspeed, heading, rate of turn, slip/skid, and navigation course deviation
information. The system also displays supplemental ight data, such as
winds, TAS, OAT, groundspeed, moving maps, pilot-selectable indices
(bugs), and various annunciations to increase situational awareness and
enhance ight safety. Moving map situational awareness information is
displayed when the unit is connected to compatible GPS equipment.
The PFD system components include the PFD display head, a Remote Sensor Module
(RSM), a Conguration Module (CM), and the optional Analog Converter Unit (ACU).
Chapter 1, Welcome and Introduction, provides a detailed discussion on the PFD
system components.
When interfaced with a compatible autopilot, the PFD system provides heading and
course information to the autopilot, which enables the autopilot to follow the Course
and Heading values set by the pilot on the PFD in much the same way as with a
mechanical HSI. When interfaced with a compatible GPS, the PFD can provide GPS
Steering (GPSS) to an autopilot.
NOTE
The optional ACU enables the interface of the PFD
system with legacy panel-mounted GPS navigators,
VOR/Localizer radios, and autopilots.
