G1000

The G1000 Integrated Avionics System includes:

  • A Primary Flight Display (PFD)
  • A Multi-Function Display (MFD)
  • An audio panel
  • An Air Data Computer (ADC)
  • An Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS)
  • Engine sensors and processing unit (GEA)

Horizontal Situation Indicator (HSI)

  • GPS ENR: a full-scale CDI deflection = 5nm
  • GPS TERM: 1nm
  • GPS APR/LNAV+V: 0.3 nm

VNV

  • ALTV: armed for capture of the next VNV Target Altitude.
  • ALTS: armed for capture of the Selected Altitude.

GIA

GIA (Garmin Integrated Avionics Unit): A main processor that interfaces with all LRUs in the G1000 sub-system and performs calculations for the GFC 700 autopilot

  • A combined communications and navigation radio
  • The primary data aggregator for the G1000 system
  • The GIA 63W includes a 15 channel WAAS certified GPS receiver (12 GPS and 3 GPS/WAAS/SBAS). A twelve channel parallel GPS receiver that simultaneously tracks and uses up to 12 satellites.
  • Includes a two-way VHF communications transceiver, a VHF navigation receiver with glideslope, and a GPS receiver
    • A VHF COM transceiver that provides tuning from 118.00 to 136.992 MHz in 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz spacing for 760 or 2280 channel configuration respectively.
    • A VOR/ILS localizer receiver that provides tuning from 108.00 to 117.95 MHz in 50 kHz increments.
    • An ILS glideslope receiver that provides tuning from 328.6 to 335.4 MHz as paired with the frequency tuned on the VOR/ILS localizer receiver.
  • Paired with a GDU display, which acts as a controlling unit
    • The GIA 63(W) communicates with the GDU via Ethernet high-speed data bus(HSDB), and with other LRUs using RS-232, RS-485/422, and ARINC 429. All configuration is done through the GDU.

LRU

LRU: Line Replaceable Unit

GMU: Magnetometer

A magnetometer is a passive instrument that measures changes in the Earth's magnetic field.
