WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

WARNING: Do not use terrain avoidance displays as the sole source of information for maintaining separation

from terrain and obstacles. Garmin obtains terrain and obstacle data from third party sources and cannot

independently verify the accuracy of the information.

WARNING: Always refer to current aeronautical charts and NOTAMs for veriﬁcation of displayed aeronautical

information. Displayed aeronautical data may not incorporate the latest NOTAM information.

WARNING: Do not use geometric altitude for compliance with air trafﬁc control altitude requirements. The

primary barometric altimeter must be used for compliance with all air trafﬁc control altitude regulations,

requirements, instructions, and clearances.

WARNING: Do not use basemap information (land and water data) as the sole means of navigation. Basemap

data is intended only to supplement other approved navigation data sources and should be considered only

an aid to enhance situational awareness.

WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of trafﬁc information to accurately depict all of the trafﬁc

within range of the aircraft. Due to lack of equipment, poor signal reception, and/or inaccurate information

from aircraft or ground stations, trafﬁc may be present that is not represented on the display.

WARNING: Do not use data link weather information for maneuvering in, near, or around areas of hazardous

weather. Information contained within data link weather products may not accurately depict current

weather conditions.

WARNING: Do not use the indicated data link weather product age to determine the age of the weather

information shown by the data link weather product. Due to time delays inherent in gathering and processing

weather data for data link transmission, the weather information shown by the data link weather product

may be older than the indicated weather product age.

WARNING: The displayed minimum safe altitude (MSAs) are only advisory in nature and should not be relied

upon as the sole source of obstacle and terrain avoidance information. Always refer to current aeronautical

charts for appropriate minimum clearance altitudes.

WARNING: Always obtain qualiﬁed instruction prior to operational use of this equipment.

WARNING

:

Do not use a QFE altimeter setting with this system. System functions will not operate properly

with a QFE altimeter setting. Use only a QNH altimeter setting for height above mean sea level, or the

standard pressure setting, as applicable.

190-02284-00 Rev. Avi

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

WARNING

:

Do not use GPS to navigate to any active waypoint identiﬁed as a ‘NON WGS84 WPT’ by a

system message. ‘NON WGS84 WPT’ waypoints are derived from an unknown map reference datum that

may be incompatible with the map reference datum used by GPS (known as WGS84) and may be positioned

in error as displayed.

WARNING: When using the autopilot to ﬂy an approach with vertical guidance, the autopilot will not level

the aircraft at the MDA/DH even if the MDA/DH is set in the altitude preselect.

WARNING: Do not rely solely upon the display of trafﬁc information for collision avoidance maneuvering.

The trafﬁc display does not provide collision avoidance resolution advisories and does not under any

circumstances or conditions relieve the pilot’s responsibility to see and avoid other aircraft.

WARNING

:

Because of variation in the earth’s magnetic ﬁeld, do not rely on the accuracy of attitude and

heading indications in the following geographic areas: North of 72° North latitude at all longitudes; South

of 70° South latitude at all longitudes; North of 65° North latitude between longitude 75° W and 120° W.

(Northern Canada); North of 70° North latitude between longitude 70° W and 128° W. (Northern Canada);

North of 70° North latitude between longitude 85° E and 114° E. (Northern Russia); South of 55° South

latitude between longitude 120° E and 165° E. (Region south of Australia and New Zealand).

WARNING: Do not rely on information from a lightning detection system display as the sole basis for hazardous

weather avoidance. Range limitations and interference may cause the system to display inaccurate or

incomplete information. Refer to documentation from the lightning detection system manufacturer for

detailed information about the system.

WARNING:

Use appropriate primary systems for navigation, and for terrain, obstacle, and trafﬁc avoidance.

Garmin SVT is intended as an aid to situational awareness only and may not provide either the accuracy or

reliability upon which to solely base decisions and/or plan maneuvers to avoid terrain, obstacles, or trafﬁc.

WARNING:

Intruder aircraft at or below 500 ft. AGL may not appear on the Garmin SVT display or may

appear as a partial symbol.

WARNING:

Do not use the Garmin SVT runway depiction as the sole means for determining the proximity of

the aircraft to the runway or for maintaining the proper approach path angle during landing.

WARNING: Do not use TAWS information for primary terrain or obstacle avoidance. TAWS is intended only

to enhance situational awareness.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

CAUTION: Do not clean display surfaces with abrasive cloths or cleaners containing ammonia. They will

harm the anti-reﬂective coating.

CAUTION:

Repairs should only be made by an authorized Garmin service center. Unauthorized repairs or

modiﬁcations could void both the warranty and affect the airworthiness of the aircraft.

NOTE: Do not rely solely upon data link services to provide Temporary Flight Restriction (TFR) information.

Always conﬁrm TFR information through ofﬁcial sources such as Flight Service Stations or Air Trafﬁc Control.

NOTE: All visual depictions contained within this document, including screen images of the system panel

and displays, are subject to change and may not reﬂect the most current system and aviation databases.

Depictions of equipment may differ slightly from the actual equipment.

NOTE: The United States government operates the Global Positioning System and is solely responsible for

its accuracy and maintenance. The GPS system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and

performance of all GPS equipment. Portions of the system utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation

AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the system can be misused or

misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

NOTE

: This device complies with part 15 of the FCC Rules. Operation is subject to the following two

conditions: (1) this device may not cause harmful interference, and (2) this device must accept any

interference received, including interference that may cause undesired operation.

NOTE

: Interference from GPS repeaters operating inside nearby hangars can cause an intermittent loss of

attitude and heading displays while the aircraft is on the ground. Moving the aircraft more than 100 yards

away from the source of the interference should alleviate the condition.

NOTE

: Use of polarized eyewear may cause the ﬂight displays to appear dim or blank.

NOTE

: This product, its packaging, and its components contain chemicals known to the State of California

to cause cancer, birth defects, or reproductive harm. This notice is being provided in accordance with

California’s Proposition 65. If you have any questions or would like additional information, please refer to

our web site at www.garmin.com/prop65.

NOTE: Operating the system in the vicinity of metal buildings, metal structures, or electromagnetic ﬁelds

can cause sensor differences that may result in nuisance miscompare annunciations during start up, shut

down, or while taxiing. If one or more of the sensed values are unavailable, the annunciation indicates no

comparison is possible.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

NOTE: The system responds to a terminal procedure based on data coded within that procedure in the

Navigation Database. Differences in system operation may be observed among similar types of procedures

due to differences in the Navigation Database coding speciﬁc to each procedure.

NOTE

: The FAA has asked Garmin to remind pilots who ﬂy with Garmin database-dependent avionics of the

following:

• It is the pilot’s responsibility to remain familiar with all FAA regulatory and advisory guidance and information

related to the use of databases in the National Airspace System.

• Garmin equipment will only recognize and use databases that are obtained from Garmin or Jeppesen. Databases

obtained from Garmin or Jeppesen that have a Type 2 Letter of Authorization (LOA) from the FAA are assured

compliance with all data quality requirements (DQRs). A copy of the Type 2 LOA is available for each applicable

database and can be viewed at http://ﬂy.garmin.com by selecting ‘Aviation Database Declarations.’

• Use of a current Garmin or Jeppesen database in your Garmin equipment is required for compliance with

established FAA regulatory guidance, but does not constitute authorization to ﬂy any and all terminal procedures

that may be presented by the system. It is the pilot’s responsibility to operate in accordance with established

AFM(S) and regulatory guidance or limitations as applicable to the pilot, the aircraft, and installed equipment.

NOTE

: The pilot/operator must review and be familiar with Garmin’s database exclusion list as discussed in

SAIB CE-14-04 to determine what data may be incomplete. The database exclusion list can be viewed at

www.ﬂygarmin.com by selecting ‘Database Exclusions List.’

NOTE

: The pilot/operator must have access to Garmin and Jeppesen database alerts and consider their

impact on the intended aircraft operation. The database alerts can be viewed at www.ﬂygarmin.com by

selecting ‘Aviation Database Alerts.’

NOTE

: If the pilot/operator wants or needs to adjust the database, contact Garmin Product Support.

NOTE: Garmin requests the ﬂight crew report any observed discrepancies related to database information.

These discrepancies could come in the form of an incorrect procedure; incorrectly identiﬁed terrain, obstacles

and ﬁxes; or any other displayed item used for navigation or communication in the air or on the ground. Go

to FlyGarmin.com and select ‘Aviation Data Error Report’.

NOTE: The system supports approval of AC 120-76C Hardware Class 3, Software Type B Electronic Flight Bag

(EFB) electronic aeronautical chart applications. Possible additional requirements may make a secondary

source (traditional paper or additional electronic display) necessary onboard the aircraft. If the secondary

source is a Portable Electronic Device (PED), its use must be consistent with guidance in AC 120-76C.

WARNINGS, CAUTIONS, AND NOTES

NOTE: When using Stormscope, there are several atmospheric phenomena in addition to nearby thunderstorms

that can cause isolated discharge points in the strike display mode. However, clusters of two or more

discharge points in the strike display mode do indicate thunderstorm activity if these points reappear after

the screen has been cleared.

NOTE: Operate the G1000 NXi system power through at least one cycle in a period of four days of continuous

operation to avoid an autonomous system reboot.

NOTE: The navigation databases used in Garmin navigation systems contain Special Procedures. Prior

to ﬂying these procedures, pilots must have speciﬁc FAA authorization, training, and possession of the

corresponding current, and legitimately-sourced chart (approach plate, etc.). Inclusion of the Special

Procedure in the navigation database DOES NOT imply speciﬁc FAA authorization to ﬂy the procedure.

SYSTEM OVERVIEW

SECTION 1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW

1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

This section provides an overview of the G1000 NXi Integrated Avionics System as installed in the Mooney M20U

and M20V. The system presents ﬂight instrumentation, position, navigation, communication, and identiﬁcation

information to the pilot through large-format displays.

LINE REPLACEABLE UNITS (LRU)

• GDU 1054 (2) –

The system features two 10 inch, high resolution LED backlit display units. The left display

is conﬁgured as a Primary Flight Display (PFD). The right display is conﬁgured as an Multi Function Display

(MFD). The displays communicate with each other through a High-speed Data Bus (HSDB) Ethernet connection.

Each display is also paired with an Ethernet connection to the Garmin Integrated Avionics unit (GIA).

•

GMA 1347

– The Audio Panel integrates navigation/communication radio (NAV/COM) digital audio, intercom,

and marker beacon controls, and is installed between the displays. This unit also provides manual control of

display Reversionary Mode (red

DISPLAY BACKUP

button) and communicates with both GIAs using an RS-232

digital interface.

• GCU 476 – The Control Unit provides MFD/PFD and radio tuning control through an RS-232 digital interface.

GIA 63W

(2) – Functions as the main communication hub, linking all LRUs with the on-side PFD. Each

GIA 63W contains a GPS WAAS receiver, VHF COM/NAV/GS receivers, a ﬂight director (FD) and system

integration microprocessors. Each GIA 63W is paired with the on-side PFD via HSDB connection. The GIA

63Ws are not paired together and do not communicate with each other directly.

• GDC 72 – The Air Data Computer (ADC) processes data from the pitot/static system and outside air temperature

(OAT) sensor. The ADC provides pressure altitude, airspeed, vertical speed, and OAT information to the

system, and it communicates with the primary GIA, displays, and AHRS using an ARINC 429 digital interface.

•

GRS 79

–

The Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) provides aircraft attitude and heading information via

ARINC 429 to both the PFD and the primary GIA. The AHRS contains advanced sensors (including accelerometers

and rate sensors) and interfaces with the Magnetometer (GMU) to obtain magnetic ﬁeld information, with the Air

Data Computer (ADC) to obtain air data, and with both GIAs to obtain GPS information.

•

GEA 71

– The Engine Airframe Unit receives and processes signals from the engine and airframe sensors. This

unit communicates with both GIAs using an RS-485 digital interface.

•

GTX 345R

– The solid-state transponder provides Modes A, C, and S capability and communicates with both

GIAs through an RS-232 digital interface. The optional GTX 345R also provides ADS-B In/Out.

•

GMU 44

– The magnetometer measures local magnetic ﬁeld and sends data to the AHRS for processing to

determine aircraft magnetic heading. This unit receives power directly from the AHRS and communicates with

it via an RS-485 digital interface.

GDL 69A SXM

– The Data Link Satellite Radio Receiver provides real-time weather information to MFD maps and

the PFD Inset Map, as well as digital audio entertainment. The Data Link Receiver communicates with the MFD

via an HSDB connection. A subscription to XM Satellite Radio Service is required to enable Data Link Receiver

capability.

•

GSA 81 (3)

and

GSM 86

– The GSA 81 servos are used for automatic control of pitch, pitch trim, and roll. These

units interface with each GIA.

The GSM 86 servo gearboxes are responsible for transferring the output torque of the servo actuators to the

mechanical ﬂight-control surface linkages.

•

GTS 800

(optional) – The GTS 800 Trafﬁc Advisory System (TAS) uses active interrogations of Mode S and

Mode C transponders to provide trafﬁc information to the pilot independent of the air trafﬁc control system.

Figure 1-1 shows interactions between the LRUs. Additional/optional equipment are also shown in Figure 1-1.

The system is capable of interfacing with the following optional equipment:

•

GTS 800

Trafﬁc Advisory System

•

Flight Stream 510 WiFi and Bluetooth® connectivity

• KN 63 DME

• Becker 3250 ADF

• L3 Stormscope WX 500

The optional Flight Stream 510 device (SD Card) provides a Bluetooth

®

connection between the system and a

mobile device. GPS, AHRS, ADS-B, trafﬁc, Sirius XM audio, and FIS-B weather data can then be shared with the

mobile device, and ﬂight plans can be transferred to or from the mobile device. Also, database updates may also

be performed using the Flight Stream 510 WiFi link.
