Introduction
CHAPTER 2
OPERATION
This chapter describes the operation of the Electronic Standby Instrument
System. Details for display elements are provided in Chapter 3.
Power On
1. Depending on the aircraft use either the battery switches or
avionics master switch to apply power.
2. The indicator transitions through the startup sequence (Self Test
and System Identification).
3. The unit will begin normal start up displaying the splash
screen followed by the database acknowledgement screen (if
applicable).
4. If applicable press the Menu button to continue startup.
5. The unit transitions to normal mode operation beginning with
aligning attitude.
6. The alignment of attitude may require up to three minutes
to complete. The attitude message and progress bar remain
showing on the page until the unit is properly aligned. Refer to
Figure 2-1.
7. After alignment is complete the unit is in normal operation mode.
Pilot Advisory
For ESI-500 functions that require data from an external source, the
pilot should be familiar with the equipment that is providing the data.
For example, which GPS provides the data for the Synthetic Vision and
the GPS navigation displays, which NAV receiver provides the data for
VOR/ILS displays, and if heading data is not provided from the MAG-
500, what equipment is providing the heading or track data for the
direction display. This will help the pilot to understand how these ESI-
500 functions are affected by their source equipment, such as failures of
the source equipment or how different modes of operation of the source
equipment can affect the ESI-500 displays.
