7-84 General
VERIFICATION OF SUCCESSFUL PAIRING
Start the IFD in flight mode and then go to the Connectivity
category in the Setup Page. Ensure that the Bluetooth option is
“On” and then verify that the Bluetooth symbol in the upper right
corner of the display is green (this may take several seconds).
Test that the pairing was successful by any of several methods,
including:
Press FMS several times on the Bluetooth keyboard.
Verify that the FMS page changes with each key press.
Select the FMS FPL page on the IFD. Repeatedly press
the down arrow key on the Bluetooth keyboard until the
cursor is at the end of the flight plan (insert cursor).
Press a letter on the Bluetooth keyboard and verify that a
waypoint entry is initiated.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
Common Mistake with Bluetooth Legend
A common mistake is to interpret the Bluetooth
Setup status legend in the top left corner of the
Bluetooth Setup page as the actual state of
Bluetooth.
TIPS AND TECHNIQUES
“Inoperative” Bluetooth Keyboards
The most likely reasons why a previously paired
keyboard appears non-functional or inoperative is
due to lack of charge or the Bluetooth setting on the
Setup page is set to Off.
