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 Conguration 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 VFR 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. When interfaced with a
compatible GPS, the VFR PFD can provide GPS Steering (GPSS) to an autopilot.
NOTE
The optional ACU enables the interface of the VFR PFD
system with legacy panel-mounted GPS navigators,
VOR radios, and autopilots.
