Reference Guide
The EFD1000 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, etc., 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 EFD1000 PFD system components include the EFD1000 PFD display head, a
Remote Sensor Module (RSM), a Conguration Module (CM), and the optional Analog
Converter Unit (ACU). Chapter 1, Welcome & Introduction, provides a detailed
discussion on the EFD1000 PFD system components.
When interfaced with a compatible autopilot, the EFD1000 PFD system provides
heading and course datum information to the autopilot, which enables the autopilot
to follow the Course and Heading values set by the pilot on the EFD1000 PFD, in much
the same way as with a mechanical HSI. When interfaced with a compatible GPS, the
EFD1000 PFD can provide GPS Steering (GPSS) to an autopilot.
NOTE
The optional ACU enables the
interface of the EFD1000 PFD system
with legacy panel-mounted GPS
navigators, VOR/Localizer radios,
and autopilots.
