These displays come with a built-in WAAS GPS receiver for VFR operations and native infrared
touchscreen interface. The system can also interface with an IFR approved GPS navigator for IFR
operations.
PFD installations require the installation of a GSU 25 ADAHRS, GMU 11 magnetometer, GTP 59
temperature probe, and the GAD 27 voltage stabilizer (14V airframes with EIS). For all PFD
installations in aircraft approved for IFR operations, standby instruments and an IFR approved
navigation system are required.
If the installation includes a separate PFD and MFD, reversionary backup is available should a failure
of either display occur. In reversionary mode, the remaining G3X Touch display combines critical flight
instrumentation with engine readouts (if installed) and navigation information in a single-screen
consolidated presentation.
If EIS functions are installed, they require the installation of a remote mounted GEA 24 Engine Airframe
unit and associated engine sensors.
MFD functions are supported by an internal GPS receiver or an external IFR GPS navigator interface.
G3X Touch flight displays can be seamlessly integrated with a variety of radios, transponders, audio
panels, ADS-B, SiriusXM ® data links, mobile devices via Garmin Connext ® and autopilot systems.
Use of this supplement requires the installation of Garmin G3X Touch Electronic Flight Instrument
hardware and system software version 8.0 or later FAA Approved software version in the aircraft.
Pilots are advised to carefully review the contents of this Airplane Flight Manual Supplement before
