95-73 Aspen EFD500H & EFD1000H Display(s) Installation
A. Description
R66 options include a single screen Aspen PFD, or a dual-screen Aspen PFD and MFD.
The Aspen PFD (Primary Flight Display) is an LCD unit with displays for attitude,
altitude, airspeed, heading, and optional NAV (HSI/CDI). The Aspen PFD is a
situational awareness aid, to be used in conjunction with required VFR instruments
(altimeter, airspeed indicator, and magnetic compass).
The standard Aspen PFD installation configures the lower half of the display as a
directional gyro. An optional installation configures the lower half of the display to a
Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI). Primary GPS position data is provided by GTN-
series GPS. Heading and outside air temperature data is received from the Aspen
remote sensor module (RSM). The RSM provides backup GPS position data if primary
GPS fails.
The Aspen MFD (Multifunction Display) is an LCD unit with displays for moving
map navigation data, terrain, and traffic. Terrain and traffic may also be overlaid on
moving map. GPS position data is provided by Garmin GTN-series GPS for moving
map and terrain displays. Aspen MFD also includes an internal terrain database.
TIS-A traffic data may be received from Garmin GTX330 transponder for moving
map display.
