6.13. MFD Database Card
Each EFD1000 MFD and EFD500 MFD includes a microSDHC (SD card, High Capacity)
card slot into which a database card with terrain and Nav Map data may be inserted.
The database card must remain in the EFD display as data is dynamically loaded from
the microSDHC into the EFD memory during ight as the aircraft position changes.
In the event that the microSDHC database card is removed from the card slot, or
communications with the card fails, the MFD will continue to operate using the last
data that was loaded into memory. As the aircraft position changes, the software will
attempt to access the data card to retrieve additional data for the new location. When
this occurs, if the data card cannot be detected, an annunciation of “DATABASE FAILURE”
is displayed at the bottom of the Nav Map. When this occurs the previously loaded data
remains available, but new data information (such as roads, rivers, navaids, and detailed
terrain data that has not yet been loaded into memory) will not be available to add to
the navigation map.
