Figure 1-3 Two-tube system: PFD & MFD
Figure 1-2 Single-tube EFD1000 PFD system
The center of the EFD system is the EFD1000 Primary Flight Display (PFD), which
replaces the traditional, mechanical Attitude Indicator (AI) and Directional Gyro (DG)
or Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI) (Figure 1-2). The PFD is available in three
models—the Pilot, Pro and ATP—each with increasing levels of features and capabilities,
and each lower model is upgradable through software to the more capable models.
Add a second EFD1000 congured as a Multi-Function Display (MFD)
(Figure 1-3), replacing the altimeter and Vertical Speed Indicator (VSI), and you’ll
double the capabilities of your system, while also providing complete redundancy
and backup to your PFD. The EFD1000 MFD contains the same AHRS, ADC, and I/O
capabilities as the PFD for full redundancy, and can assume the role of PFD should
your main PFD ever fail.
