Page: 9 / 334

System Overview 1-1
1 System Overview
This manual assumes that the pilot is appropriately licensed, is
proficient in operation of the aircraft and its equipment, and is in
compliance with all Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs).
All images contained in this manual are for reference use only,
and are subject to change.
Avidyne strongly recommends that pilots use the IFD540 system
only under VFR conditions until completely familiar with its
operation and use.
Boxed areas marked as NOTE within this manual identify certain
situations or areas of operation having heightened safety
implications. While it is important for the operator to be familiar
with all of the information in the manual, it is essential to the safe
use of the IFD540 that pilots give careful attention to the material
contained within these
NOTE s.
In order to avoid a diversion of attention from the task of safely
taxiing, pilots should avoid performing the described cockpit tasks
while the aircraft is in motion on the ground. It remains the pilot’s
duty to monitor the IFD for proper function upon activation and
during use.
Internal IFD540 data logs and the storage devices that record and
store data are property of Avidyne.
