GARMIN SVT TROUBLESHOOTING
Garmin SVT™ is intended to be used with traditional attitude, heading, obstacle, terrain,
and traffic inputs. SVT is disabled when valid attitude or heading data is not available for the
display. In case of invalid SVT data, the PFD display reverts to the standard blue-over-brown
attitude display.
SVT becomes disabled without the following data resources:
– Attitude data.
– Heading data.
– GPS position data.
– 4.9 arc-second terrain data.
– Obstacle data.
– Terrain SVT or TAWS function is not available, in test mode, or failed.
UNUSUAL ATTITUDES
When the aircraft enters an unusual pitch attitude, red chevrons pointing toward the hori-
zon warn of extreme pitch. The chevrons are displayed on the Attitude Indicator, starting at
50˚ above and 30˚ below the horizon line. The display shows either a brown or blue colored
bar at the top or bottom of the screen to represent earth or sky. This is intended to prevent
losing sight of the horizon during extreme pitch attitudes.

The blue colored bar is also displayed when terrain gradient is great enough to completely
fill the display.
