INSTALLATION PROCEDURES
This section covers the procedures that must be performed after accomplishing the mechanical and
electrical installations. It is assumed that the person performing the post-installation checks is familiar
with the aircraft, has a working knowledge of typical avionics systems, and has experience using the test
equipment defined in this section. All installation work must be completed in accordance with this STC
before beginning any of the procedures in this document.
Following initial system installation, this entire procedure must be successfully
accomplished in order for the G1000 and GFC 700 system to be airworthy in the King Air
C90A/GT.
2.1
Required Test Equipment
The following test equipment is required to conduct and complete all post installation checkout
procedures in this section: (All calibrated test equipment should have current calibration records)
•
A VHF NAV/COM, ILS, & DME ramp tester
•
A transponder ramp tester
•
A pitot/static ramp tester
•
A Digital Multi-Meter (DMM)
•
A ground power unit capable of supplying 28 Vdc power to the aircraft systems and avionics
•
Outdoor line-of-site to GPS satellite signals or GPS indoor repeater
•

•
Hand Microphone
•
Digital Level or equivalent
•
Plum Bob
•
In-line type VSWR/wattmeter

•
ITT, N1, N2, Torque, Fuel Flow test equipment. Reference “Engine Indicating – Maintenance
Practices” Raytheon (Hawker Beechcraft) King Air (A/B/C/E) Series Maintenance Manual Part
No. 90-590012-13 Revision B11 or later, section 77-00-00.

2.2
G1000 Hardware/Software Compatibility Check
Before installing hardware, the technician must first ensure that hardware part numbers are compatible
with the G1000/C90 loader card that is to be used. A G1000/C90 loader card is required to install
software and configuration settings to a newly installed G1000 system. The part number of this card is
directly associated with the combination of software file part numbers and version levels that are defined
on the card. Should software part numbers or versions change, a new loader card part number is issued.
The G1000/GFC 700 General Arrangement (GA) drawing, Garmin Part Number 005-00375-22, shows all
available combinations of hardware and loader cards. Using the GA drawing, the technician must verify
that all hardware part numbers are compatible with the loader card to be used. The GA drawing allows
the technician to correlate each LRU hardware part number to a compatible loader card.
After verifying hardware/loader card compatibility, record the loader card part number and
all LRU hardware part numbers in the appropriate aircraft records before proceeding.
Throughout the next section of this document, screen shots and examples are used to
illustrate the software and configuration loading process. These screen shots are
provided as reference only. Always refer to the General Arrangement drawing for the
correct software file names, versions and part numbers.
