Multi-Function Display (MFD) Auxiliary Video Input (If Activated)
The G1000 MFD is equipped with an Auxiliary Video Input. The G1000
system provides a control and display interface to the auxiliary video system.
The video system is capable of displaying video for up to two inputs.
The G1000 MFD is capable of displaying the following video in the following
modes:
• Full-Screen
• Full-Screen with Digital Zoom
• Split-Screen with Map
• Split-Screen with Map and Digital Zoom
The Auxiliary Video Input is an option for the KODIAK and must have the
appropriate software in order to be used.
Garmin Synthetic Vision System (SVS) (If Equipped)
The Synthetic Vision System (SVS) is a visual enhancement to the G1000
Integrated Flight Deck. SVS depicts a forward-looking attitude display of
the topography immediately in front of the aircraft. The eld of view is 30
degrees to the left and 35 degrees to the right. SVS information is shown
on the Primary Flight Display (PFD), or on the Multifunction Display (MFD) in
Reversionary Mode (see gure on the following page). The depicted imagery
is derived from the aircraft attitude, heading, GPS three-dimensional position,
and a nine arc-second database of terrain, obstacles, and other relevant
features. The terrain data resolution of nine arc-seconds, meaning that the
terrain elevation contours are stored in squares measuring nine arc-seconds
on each side, is required for the operation of SVS. Loss of any of the required
data, including temporary loss of the GPS signal, will cause SVS to be
disabled until the required data is restored.
The SVS terrain display shows land contours (colors are consistent with those
of the topographical map display), large water features, towers, and other
obstacles over 200' AGL that are included in the obstacle database. Cultural
features on the ground such as roads, highways, railroad tracks, cities, and
state boundaries are not displayed even if those features are found on the
MFD map. The terrain display also includes a north–south east–west grid
with lines oriented with true north and spaced at one arc-minute intervals
to assist in orientation relative to the terrain. The Terrain Awareness and
Warning System (TAWS) is integrated within SVS to provide visual and
auditory alerts to indicate the presence of terrain and obstacle threats relevant
to the projected ight path. Terrain alerts are displayed in red and yellow
shading on the PFD.
The terrain display is intended for situational awareness only. It may
not provide the accuracy or delity on which to base decisions and plan
maneuvers to avoid terrain or obstacles. Navigation must not be predicated
solely upon the use of the TAWS terrain or obstacle data displayed by the
SVS.
