7.1 INTRODUCTION
Section 7 of the Pilot's Operating Handbook contains a description of the entire aircraft and its
systems, including the integration of the GARMIN G500 TXi system and the Glass Panel
Engine Monitor MVP-50P-AQ as well as information related to their use.
Refer to Section 9 for the description and operating instructions of optional equipment and
systems.
NOTE
A more in depth description and the user manuals of the G500 TXi and the MVP-50P-AQ can
be found in the GARMIN G500 TXi Pilot's Guide and MVP-50P-AQ Operating Instructions.
7.1.1 Garmin G500 TXi System (Primary Flight Display)
The GARMIN G500 TXi system has 2 displays, the PFD and the MFD. Together they form the
Garmin Display Unit (GDU). In addition, the GDU requires an Attitude and Heading Reference
System (AHRS unit) and an Air-Data Computer (ADC unit). The GARMIN G500 TXi display has
an integrated AHRS and the ADC is installed directly onto the back side of the GDU
The GARMIN G500 TXi system is organized as shown in the following illustrations.
For the G500 TXi system the GDU is attached to the aircraft power supply through its own
push-pull type circuit breaker. The circuit breaker is located on the right side of the instrument
panel and is labeled
PFD
. This circuit breaker also protects all other components of the G500
TXi system, because they all are connected via the display unit.
Current flows through the G500 TXi circuit breakers as soon as the
ALT1 / BAT
switch has
been turned on.
