5.4. Secondary Views (EFD1000 MFD only)
The Secondary Attitude Instrument and Secondary HSI VIEWs are only available with the
EFD1000 MFD. The Horizontal Situation Indicator VIEW is available when the EFD1000/
MFD is congured with a GPS. Both VIEWs provide the pilot with a visual cross-check of
the primary instruments.
5.4.1. Secondary Attitude Instrument (AI)
The Secondary Attitude Instrument VIEW provides a secondary display of aircraft
attitude, altitude, and airspeed. The VIEW consists of a basic attitude indicator overlaid
with numerical airspeed and altitude data displayed in the upper left WINDOW of the
thumbnail LAYOUT (PAGE 3/3) (Figure 5-85).
5.4.1.1. Airspeed and Altitude
The Indicated Airspeed (IAS) is displayed in a rolling drum format using the same units
of measure (i.e., Knots or Miles per Hours) as the PFD. The IAS displays with a resolution
of 1 unit and a range of 20 to 999 units and is dashed if the IAS is below 20.
The IAS is rendered in red if the current IAS is greater than Vne or is less than Vso and the
red low speed band is enabled. The red low speed band enables when the IAS exceeds
(Vs + 10) units for more than 30 seconds. The red low speed band remains in its enabled
or disabled state for IAS values between 20 units and (Vs + 10) units.
The altitude indicator is displayed in a rolling drum format displaying all height values
in feet. The altitude is displayed with a resolution of 20 units and a range of -1,600 to
51,000 units.
NOTE
Aircraft with an EFD500 MFD congured with an
EFD1000 PFD will not receive heading information if
the PFD fails.
NOTE
Refer to the EFD1000 PFD Pilot’s Guide for detailed
information about the Attitude Indicator and HSI.
