cAution:
Never disconnect power to the system when loading a database. Power interruption during the
database loading process could result in maintenance being required to return the system to operation.
The system uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various types of data. For basic flight operations,
SD cards are required for database storage as well as Jeppesen navigation and ChartView database updates. Not
all SD cards are compatible with the G2000. Use only SD cards supplied by Garmin or the aircraft manufacturer.
cAution:
When downloading updates to the Jeppesen Navigation Database, copy the data to an SD card
other than a Garmin Supplemental Data Card. Otherwise, data corruption can occur.
note:
When loading database updates, the ‘DB Mismatch’ system message will be displayed until database
synchronization is complete, followed by turning system power off, then on. Synchronization can be
monitored on the Avionics Status Screen on the Touchscreen Controller.
note:
Loading a database in the system prior to its effective date will result in the expiration date on the
power-up screen and the effective date on the Avionics Status Screen being displayed in yellow.
note:
Garmin requests the flight crew report any observed discrepancies related to database information.
These discrepancies could come in the form of an incorrect procedure; incorrectly identified terrain, obstacles
and fixes; or any other displayed item used for navigation or communication in the air or on the ground. Go
to FlyGarmin.com and select “Aviation Data Error Report.
JePPesen dAtABAses
The Jeppesen navigation database is updated on a 28-day cycle. The ChartView database is updated on a
14-day cycle. If the ChartView database is not updated within 70 days of the expiration date, ChartView will
no longer function. Jeppesen provides both of these databases directly.
The ChartView database should be copied to the Garmin supplied Supplemental Data Cards which reside in
the bottom card slot on the PFD and MFD. The navigation database must be installed from the Jeppesen or
user supplied SD data card. Contact Jeppesen (www.jeppesen.com) for subscription and update information.
note:
After the navigation database is installed, the card may be removed.
Updating the active Jeppesen navigation database (not using the Dual Navigation Database or
Automatic Database Synchronization Features):
1)
With the system OFF, insert the SD card containing the new navigation database version into the top card slot of each
display (PFD1, MFD1) to be updated (label of SD card facing left).
2)
Apply power to the system. A prompt is displayed in the upper left corner of the display:
