S-TEC 3100 Digital and Analog
1-6
NOTE:
The autopilot always follows the source selected by the GPS 1/2
selector switch regardless of the source displayed on the PFD. Always
ensure the GPS 1/2 selector switch position matches the navigation
source displayed on the PFD.
1.7. INTERFACED AVIONICS
The S-TEC 3100 may be setup to integrate with both analog and digital
systems, which includes (but not limited to) the following.
1.7.1.
Garmin G500/G600/TXi EFIS
All mode annunciation is displayed on the 3100 bezel, but the G500/600/
TXi does not display 3100 AFCS mode annunciations.
Altitude pre-select is available and the 3100 reads VS, IAS and ALT targets
set on the EFIS display (§ 3.8.5).
If a target is set using the 3100 bezel directly, this supersedes any existing
targets from the EFIS and the new target is displayed as the altitude
annunciation.
Flight director command bars are displayed on the EFIS.
NOTE:
The G500/600/TXi does not update the EFIS displayed targets set on
the 3100 bezel directly.
1.7.2.
Aspen EFD 500/1000/MAX
All mode annunciations are displayed on the 3100 bezel, but the EFD1000
does not display 3100 AFCS mode annunciations.
Indicated airspeed data is not provided from the Aspen EFD1000. Therefore,
some installations may not have IAS mode or envelope protection unless
supplemented with additional air data equipment.
This interface uses the 3100 internal altitude pre-select. VS, IAS, and ALT
targets cannot be set using the PFD bugs (§ 3.8.5).
