SECTION 9
SUPPLEMENT 23 PA-28-181, ARCHER III
REPORT: VB-1611 ISSUED: JULY 12, 1995
9-158, 6 of 36 REVISED: FEBRUARY 14, 2006
SECTION 2 - LIMITATIONS (continued)
B. MFD Limitations (continued)
4. Aircraft dispatch is prohibited when the MFD is inoperative.
5. Selecting “Lightning Display OFF” for the Lightning overlay of the Map
page will prevent current heading values from being sent to the WX500
sensor from the EX5000.
When “Lightning Display OFF” is selected the EX5000 will stop
sending current heading values to the WX500. When this selection is
made, the WX500 will still use the last heading value that was present
before this selection even though the actual aircraft heading may have
changed since that selection was made.
Consequently, the Stormscope heading information provided to the
Garmin 430 by the EX5000 will not be updated, resulting in an
inaccurate lightning depiction on the Garmin 430. This issue does not
affect the lightning display on the EX5000.
To avoid this invalid condition, disable the WX500 on the GNS430. For
instructions on how to accomplish this, refer to the Garmin 400 Series
Installation Manual, p/n 190-00140-02, latest revision (reference Section
5.1 Configuration Mode Operations, Section 5.2 Installation
Configuration pages, and Section 5.2.2 Main RS232 Configuration
page).
CAUTION
Traffic information shown on the Map page display is
provided to the pilot as an aid to visually acquiring traffic.
Pilot’s should maneuver their aircraft based only on ATC
guidance or positive visual acquisition of the conflicting
traffic. Maneuvers should be consistent with ATC
instructions. No maneuvers should be based only on a
Traffic Advisory.
Terrain information shown on the Map page display is
provided to the pilot as an aid to situational awareness. The
Map page terrain color representations should not be used
as a basis for terrain avoidance.
NOTE
The MFD integrates with separately approved sensor and
flight control installations. Adherence to limitations in
appropriate installation AFM supplements is mandatory.
