Post Installation Configuration & Checkout
The GFC 700 system does not allow operation of the flight-control system until the
required post installation configuration procedures have been completed.
The GSA 8X and GSM 85(A) must be installed with a Garmin Integrated Flight Deck and have FAA
approved software loaded.
AFCS software is loaded to the GIAs and GSA 8X servos from an aircraft-specific Software Loader Card.
The PFD serves as the graphical user interface to load the software. For actual aircraft
installation/checkout, refer to aircraft-specific approved checkout procedures.
