2.1.17 GSA 80 Servos and GSM 85A/86 Servo Gearboxes (4)
The Garmin GFC 700 AFCS uses GSA 80 high torque servos to automatically control aircraft pitch, roll,
yaw damper/turn coordination and pitch trim. The pitch trim variant of the GSA 80 is a high speed servo
actuator. The GSA 80 contains a motor-control and monitor circuit board, as well as a solenoid and a
brushless DC motor. The GSA 80 servo receives serial RS-485 data packets from the GIA 63Ws. The roll
servo is located in the forward cabin lower fuselage at F.S. 185. The pitch, yaw, and pitch trim servos are
located in the tail. Power to the servos is received from the avionics No. 2 bus. All servos mount to a
Garmin GSM 85A or GSM 86 Servo Gearbox. The GSM 85A/86 is responsible for transferring the output
torque of the GSA 80 servo actuators to the mechanical flight control surface linkage. The GSM 85A has a
slip clutch that can be adjusted to a desired torque value. The GSM 86 has a clutch cartridge that cannot be
adjusted to a different torque value.
Each GEA 71 receives signals from its on-side engine turbine speed sensor, propeller speed sensor and fuel
flow sensors via a Meggitt (Vibro-Meter) Signal Conditioner. This unit converts the signals from the engine
sensors to a signal usable by the GEA 71. These units are installed behind the instrument panel. Electrical
power to the No. 1 Engine Signal Conditioner is provided from Dual Fed Bus No. 1 and to the No. 2 Engine
Signal Conditioner from Dual Fed Bus No. 2. Both signal conditioners will power-up immediately with
external or aircraft power or battery operation.
NOTE
On serial numbers BB-1484, 1486 and subsequent, the electrical system includes the L ENG
INSTR and R ENG INSTR buses which (after this STC) are powered from Dual Fed Bus
No. 1 and No. 2 respectively. On these aircraft, the No. 1 Engine Signal Conditioner
receives power from Dual Fed Bus No. 1 via the L ENG INSTR bus and the No. 2 Engine
Signal Conditioner receives power from Dual Fed Bus No. 2 via the R ENG INSTR bus.

2.1.20 Standby Airspeed Indicator
A Standby Airspeed indicator, Aerosonic part number 25030-0184, is installed between PFD 1 and the MFD.
Due to varying airspeed marking requirements, four marking options are used. To determine the appropriate
option for a specific aircraft configuration, refer to the General Arrangement drawing, Garmin Document
005-00421-03. The standby airspeed indicator does not require electrical power for normal operation except
for internal instrument lighting, which is powered from Dual Fed No. 1 Bus and the emergency standby
battery. This unit is connected to the right-hand pitot/static system.
The aircraft power buss provides a trickle charge to the PS-835 under normal conditions. This battery is
installed in the nose avionics bay. It is controlled using the standby battery switch indicator on the
instrument panel.

2.3 Electrical Power Distribution
This airplane uses a multi-bus system, as detailed below and in Figure 2-18. This Figure shows the system
post installation of this STC. Although this STC made several bussing changes to the distribution system,
the core electrical generation and distribution system remains unchanged from the basic airplane design.
Figure 2-19 shows the power sources for all equipment used by this STC. Each bus used or modified by this
installation is described below.
Left and Right Generator Buses: The left and right generator buses receive power from their respective left
and right generators. The left and right generator buses also support all four dual fed buses and No. 1 and
No. 2 avionics buses, respectively.
Isolation Bus: The Isolation bus is fed by two generator buses and the battery bus. The Isolation bus is used
in this installation to provide power to the new Standby Instrument Bus and the new Essential bus.
Dual-fed Buses: The electrical distribution uses four individual dual-fed buses referred through this
document as Dual Fed No. 1 Bus, Dual Fed No. 2 Bus, Dual Fed No. 3 Bus and Dual Fed No. 4 Bus. Each
of these dual fed buses are powered from the Left and the Right Generator buses.
Avionics Buses: The No. 1 Avionics bus is powered from the Left Generator Bus via the Avionics No. 1
relay. The No. 2 Avionics bus is powered from the Right Generator Bus via the Avionics No. 2 relay. Both
Avionics relays are controlled using the Avionics Master Switch.
Left and Right Engine Instrument Buses: On serial numbers BB-1484, 1486 and subsequent, the electrical
system includes the L ENG INSTR and R ENG INSTR buses. This STC relocates these two buses such that
they are powered from Dual Fed Bus No. 1 and No. 2 respectively. Prior to these serial numbers, these two
buses are not installed and engine instruments are powered directly from the dual fed buses. (Figure 2-1
shows the system with these buses installed and relocated.).
Essential Bus: The Essential bus is a new bus added by this STC. It is powered from Dual Fed No. 1 bus
and the Isolation bus.
Standby Instrument Bus: The Standby Instrument bus is a new bus added by this STC. It is powered by the
Isolation bus and provides one source of power to the standby attitude indicator and standby altimeter
vibrator.
Entertainment Bus: The Entertainment Bus is a new bus added by this STC. It is powered from the No.2
Avionics bus via a newly installed Entertainment Bus relay. This relay is controlled via the existing Cabin
Furnishing switch so that bus can be easily shed by pilot using single switch action along with the other
cabin equipment.
Emergency Standby Battery: The Standby Emergency Battery (STBY BATT) system in the King Air
200/B200 is designed to provide uninterrupted DC power to the Standby Attitude indicator (gyro motor), the
Standby Altimeter (vibrator) and internal instrument lighting for the standby attitude indicator, standby
altimeter and the standby airspeed indicator from the L-3 PS-835(C or D Model) Emergency Standby
Battery. This standby battery power is independent from the normal electrical system and provides
redundant power for the standby instruments in the event that all other electrical power is lost.

3.5 G1000 Normal Mode
To start the G1000 system in Normal Mode:
1. With a ground power unit connected to the external power receptacle, set the BAT switch to ‘ON’.
The following G1000 equipment is powered:
• PFD displays & MFD display
• GRS 77 AHRS Units
• GDC 74B Air Data Computers
• GIA 63W Integrated Avionics Units
• GEA 71 Engine/Airframe Units
• GCU 477 FMS Control Unit
• GMC 710 Autopilot Control Unit
2. Set the AVIONICS MASTER switch to ‘ON’. The following G1000 equipment is powered:
• GTX 33 Mode S Transponders
• GMA 1347D Digital Audio Panels
• GDL 69A Datalink Unit
• GSA Servos
• GWX 68 Weather Radar Unit
The G1000 system is now powered in the normal mode. In the normal operating mode, data fields that
are invalid have large red X’s through them. A valid field does not display a red X. Allow the displays
to initialize for approximately one minute. The GDC 74Bs requires a longer initialization period than do
the other LRUs. During normal operation, this causes the airspeed, altitude, vertical speed, and OAT
fields to be invalid during the first ~40-60 seconds of PFD power-up. The PFDs and MFD will function
as specified in the G1000 200/B200 Series Cockpit Reference Guide when the system has been correctly
installed and configured.
G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air Page 3-5
190-00915-01 Revision 6
3.6 Reversionary Mode
Reversionary mode allows for display of information related to safe flight in the event of a display
communication or hardware failure. For software version 0985.04 and later, the pilot’s PFD
automatically goes into reversionary mode when communication to the MFD is lost. Manual
reversionary mode allows the operator to force the pilot or copilot’s PFD into reversionary mode by
pressing the large red button labeled ‘DISPLAY BACKUP’ on the respective GMA 1347D audio panel.
NOTE
When the ‘DISPLAY BACKUP’ button is pushed to exit reversionary mode, there is a 5-
second debounce (or the GDU waits for 5 consecutive seconds) and then returns to
normal mode if no other input is received. If the ‘DISPLAY BACKUP’ button is pushed
again during this 5-second interval, the timer will repeat the count.

Revision 6 190-00915-01
3.7 Configuration Mode Overview
Throughout this document, references are made to the PFD1, PFD2 and/or MFD being in configuration
mode. The configuration mode exists to provide the avionics technician with a means of configuring,
checking, and calibrating various G1000 sub-systems. Troubleshooting and diagnostics information can
also be viewed in this mode.
To start the G1000 system in configuration mode, follow these steps:
1. Apply power to the G1000 system by applying aircraft EXT power, selecting the AVIONICS
MASTER PWR and BATT switches to ON.
2. Pull the MFD, PFD1 (PRI), PFD1 (SEC) and PFD2 circuit breakers.
3. Press and hold the ENT key on PFD2 (co-pilot) while applying power using the PFD2 circuit
breaker.
4. Release the ENT key after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner of PFD2.
5. Press and hold the far right softkey on the MFD while applying power using the MFD circuit
breaker. (Note that the ENT key on the GCU 477 MFD controller may be used after initial
software loads.)
6. Release the softkey after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner of the
MFD.
7. Press and hold the ENT key on PFD1 (pilot) while applying power using the PFD1 (PRI) and
PFD1 (SEC) circuit breakers.
8. Release the ENT key after ‘INITIALIZING SYSTEM’ appears in the upper left corner of PFD1.
CAUTION:
The Configuration Mode contains certain pages and settings that are critical to aircraft
operation and safety. These pages are protected and cannot be modified, unless the
technician is properly authorized and equipped. However, most protected pages are
viewable to allow system awareness for troubleshooting.
NOTE
If the specific procedure requires an SD card to be in the top slot of the PFD/MFD, this
card must be inserted prior to applying power to the PFD/MFD. Any time a card is
inserted, the power to the PFD/MFD must be cycled.
NOTE
For a complete description and breakdown of each Configuration Mode page, refer to the
G1000 System Maintenance Manual listed in Table 1-3.
3.7.1 SET>ACTV Configuration
Throughout the configuration mode pages, there are SET and ACTIVE columns for input/output settings
and other parameters.
SET: Refers to a setting or group of settings that reside in PFD Internal Memory and/or the Master
Configuration Module.
ACTIVE: Refers to an ‘active’ setting or parameter currently being used by the LRU. LRUs store the
‘active’ settings within internal memory.
G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air Page 3-7
190-00915-01 Revision 6
Data can be manually copied from one column to the other (and consequently from PFD memory to the
LRU memory and vice-versa) by using the following two softkeys, when available:
• SET>ACTV (read ‘Set to Active’) softkey: Allows the installer to send the information in the
SET column (data stored in the master config module) to the ACTV column (data used by LRU).
• ACTV>SET (read ‘Active to Set’) softkey: Causes the LRUs current settings to be copied to the
master configuration module as SET items.
CAUTION:
The ACTV>SET softkey must be used with caution! If an improperly configured
unit is installed, this softkey causes the wrong configuration to replace the correct
aircraft configuration.
In the first example shown in Figure 3-10, the SET columns do not match the ACTIVE
columns. The inequality between SET and ACTIVE indicates a configuration mismatch.
By pressing the SET>ACTV softkey, this copies the SET column to the LRU unit’s
configuration memory. The settings then become the ACTIVE settings for the LRU
being configured.

Revision 6 190-00915-01
When troubleshooting the system, technicians can look for inequalities between SET and ACTIVE
columns. Certain problems can be resolved simply by pressing the SET>ACTV softkey, which reloads
settings to the specific LRU from the PFD. (Note that this can also be accomplished by reloading the
configuration files for the LRU. Section 7 describes this process for each LRU).
A blank active column, as shown in Figure 3-11, represents loss of communication between the display
and the particular unit. See Section 5 for more details on troubleshooting.

3.8 G1000 / GFC 700 Software Information
NOTE
The following sections provide a detailed description of loading all G1000 software and
configuration files, which may be excessive for individual LRU removal and
replacement. If removing and replacing individual LRUs, refer to Section 6 of this
manual for the necessary steps.
3.8.1 G1000 Software Image
All software and configuration files were certified by Garmin and are considered part of FAA-approved
Type Design data. Approved software and hardware definitions for each STC Configuration are defined
on the appropriate General Arrangement drawing listed in Table 1-2.
G1000 software and configuration files are controlled via the approved software image part number listed
on the General Arrangement drawing listed in Table 1-2. This software image is loaded into the G1000
using a software loader card. The installer shall create this software loader card by downloading the
approved software image in accordance with section 3.8.2.
NOTE
Only SanDisk and Toshiba brand SD cards are recommended for use with the G1000
system.
NOTE
Installers may obtain this software image already on a loader card by ordering Garmin
Part number 010-00798-XX directly from Garmin. Reference the General Arrangement
drawing listed in Table 1-2 for part number information.
IMPORTANT!
To satisfy the G1000/GFC700 STC requirements for the 200/B200 series aircraft, it
is critical that the technician install correct software image part number when
servicing the G1000 system.
Approved software image part numbers are defined on the appropriate General
Arrangement drawing (see Table 1-2).
CAUTION:
Be cautious when using software loader cards during maintenance. The G1000 system
immediately initializes the card upon power-up. On-screen prompts must be given
careful attention in order to avoid potential loss of data. Always read through procedures
given in Sections 5, 6 and 7 before attempting to use the software loader cards.

3.8.5 Configuration File Storage
The G1000 system is designed to store all configuration settings in various places so that the
configuration is retained in the aircraft during maintenance of units.
During system configuration, each file is sent directly to the applicable LRU where it is stored in local
LRU memory (except GRS 77 & GDC 74B). Each file is also stored in the PFD internal memory. The
applicable PFD also sends a copy of all configuration files to the ‘Master Configuration module’, located
in the connector backshell (see Section 6.16). If the PFD is replaced, the configuration module retains all
configuration files in the aircraft.
NOTE
The GRS 77 AHRS and GMU 44 Magnetometer do not have a configuration file.
However, these LRUs do store calibration data acquired during the post installation
checkout, which are characteristic to the specific installation. While performing
maintenance on these units, re-calibration may be required. See Section 7.7.1 for more
information on re-calibration criteria.
Page 3-16 G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air
Revision 6 190-00915-01
The GRS 77 and GDC 74B configuration modules function differently than the rest of the system. The
GDC 74B’s configuration file is loaded directly to GDC internal memory. A copy of the file is stored in
the GDC configuration module.
The GRS 77 configuration module does not store any configuration settings. Instead, it stores calibration
data recorded during installation calibration procedures.
The GRS 77 also stores factory calibration data internally. The GDC 74B also stores factory calibration data internally.

4.3 Maintenance Intervals
Table 4-1 shows systems and items, installed by this STC, which must undergo tests or checks at specific
intervals. If the interval is shown to be in flight time as well as calendar months, the first interval reached
should be used as the limit.
The inspection time tables used for this STC are aligned with the existing maintenance 200 hr phase
inspection program used in the current King Air 200 Series Maintenance Manual. A complete inspection
cycle for the King Air 200/B200 is 800 hours or 24 calendar months, divided into the following four
phases:
Inspection Phase 1: To be performed at 200 hours and every 800 hours thereafter.
Inspection Phase 2: To be performed at 400 hours and every 800 hours thereafter.
Inspection Phase 3: To be performed at 600 hours and every 800 hours thereafter.
Inspection Phase 4: To be performed at 800 hours and every 800 hours thereafter.
Those inspections that are based on flight time, calendar elapsed time or cycles shall have specific
intervals stated in Table 4-1.
IMPORTANT!
As allowed in the King Air 200 Series Maintenance Manual, a tolerance of +/- 20
hours for all phase inspections.
The intention of Garmin is to align this maintenance program as best possible with the existing King Air
200/B200 inspection program. For a complete description of the King Air inspection program, refer to

4.5 Electrical Bonding Test
The following bonding tests are provided for G1000-equipped 200/B200 King Air aircraft as a
requirement beyond what is given in the aircraft maintenance manual. The electrical bonding checks are
split into two tests, Phase 3 Electrical Bonding Test and Phase 4 Electrical bonding test. This places the
bonding test requirement for each G1000 LRU in the same phase as the visual inspection of that zone to
minimize access requirements.
4.5.1 Requirements
All G1000 equipment must be installed. Gain access for the procedure listed below in Section 4.5.3 as
required and in accordance with the King Air 200 Series Maintenance Manual. It is recommended that
these tests are conducted after visual inspection of the zone to minimize access requirements.
2. Touch negative lead of power supply to each of the test points listed while performing Step 3. At
each point, configure the power supply to produce 1 amp before measuring voltage. (Use an
ammeter to ensure current is within 1 amp ±100 milli-amp at each point).
3. Set the voltmeter to measure milli-volts and null the reading. Measure the voltage from the engine
grounding bracket (step 1) to each of the following points and record the voltage. (Perform Step 2 at
each point to ensure that 1 amp ±100 milli-amp is present before measuring.)

Pilot Compartment
Cabin Compartment
• GTX 33 #1 top: __________ milli-volts
• GTX 33 #2 top: __________ milli-volts
• GSA 80 (Roll) Servo body: __________ milli-volts
Ensure that at each PFD or MFD test point, no more than 20 milli-volts (20 mΩ) are present. Ensure that
at each other test point, no more than 2.5 milli-volts (2.5 mΩ) are present. In this case, voltage is
equivalent to resistance (Ω), given that precisely 1 amp reference current is present.
TIP: If 1 amp reference current cannot be maintained, note the difference between the attainable current
and 1 amp reference current. Calculate the percentage difference and apply this to the voltage reading to
obtain the equivalent resistance. Example: If the measured current is 1.2 amps, (20% high from the target
1 amp current), then the allowable voltage measurement would be 20% high, 2.5 milli-volts would now
be 3.0 milli-volts.

4.5.4 Phase 4 Electrical Bonding Procedure
1. Connect the positive lead of the power supply to the engine compartment grounding bracket (battery
negative connection to the airframe). Connect/touch the positive lead of the voltmeter to the same
point.
NOTE
Ensure that the voltmeter and power supply probes do not touch, so as not to induce
contact resistance.
2. Touch negative lead of power supply to each of the test points listed while performing Step 3. At
each point, configure the power supply to produce 1 amp before measuring voltage. (Use an ammeter
to ensure current is within 1 amp ±100 milli-amp at each point).
3. Set the voltmeter to measure milli-volts and null the reading. Measure the voltage from the engine
grounding bracket (step 1) to each of the following points and record the voltage. (Perform Step 2 at
each point to ensure that 1 amp ±100 milli-amp is present before measuring)

TIP: If 1 amp reference current cannot be maintained, note the difference between the attainable current
and 1 amp reference current. Calculate the percentage difference and apply this to the voltage reading to
obtain the equivalent resistance. Example: If the measured current is 1.2 amps, (20% high from the target
1 amp current), then the allowable voltage measurement would be 20% high, 2.5 milli-volts would now
be 3.0 milli-volts.

4.9.3 Servo Gearbox Adjustment Fixture Procedure
This test is an alternative to the automated and manual slip clutch test procedures.
Only the GSM 85A servo gearbox slip clutch can be adjusted. The GSM 86 servo gearbox does not have
an adjustable slip clutch; however, the torque value can be measured using this procedure.
IMPORTANT!
This adjustment requires the use of the Garmin servo adjustment fixture,
P/N T10-00110-01. For detailed operating instructions for the fixture, refer to
GSA8X / GSM85(A) Installation Manual, listed in Table 1-3.
1. Remove the GSM 85A or GSM 86 servo gearbox as per Section 6.12.
2. Place the GSM 85A or GSM 86 servo gearbox on the slip-clutch adjustment fixture and secure with
the toggle clamps. Install the fixture cable between the capstan under test and the fixture capstan.
Remove the slack in the cable using the tension adjustment knob. Tighten the two wingnuts on
bottom of fixture while holding the top thumbscrews.
3. Attach a socket to a calibrated torque wrench of appropriate range and place on top of the fixture
capstan. Adjust the wrench support fixture so that it contacts the handle in the appropriate location.
4. Connect a 2 Amp, 24 V, DC power supply to the fixture.
5. Place the solenoid switch to "on" and move the direction switch to the clockwise or counter-
clockwise position. Allow the clutch to rotate at least one revolution in each direction (note: the
capstan itself is fixed.)
6. Observe the torque reading for at least two full revolutions in each direction. Ensure the minimum
and maximum torque readings are within the tolerance specified.
7. If the minimum and maximum torque values are within the specified range in Table 4-11, the GSM
slip clutch is acceptable. Reinstall the GSM 85A or GSM 86 servo gearbox per Section 6.12.
8. If the minimum and maximum torque values are not within the specified range in Table 4-11, the
GSM 86 slip clutch cartridge must be replaced or the GSM 85A must be adjusted.
9. For GSM 85A only: If adjustment is required, remove cotter pin and adjust the nut on the capstan as
needed to obtain the torque value listed in Table 4-11, as shown on the torque wrench. Position the
nut to align with holes in the capstan shaft and install a new cotter pin.
10. When finished, remove the fixture cable, and then remove the servo gearbox from the fixture.
11. Install the GSM 85A or GSM 86 servo gearbox per Section 6.12.

5 TROUBLESHOOTING
This section provides instructions and guidance for G1000 system troubleshooting, as installed in the
King Air 200/B200.
IMPORTANT!
Sections 6, 7 and 8 provide detailed instructions on equipment removal,
replacement, configuration, and return-to-service testing. Anytime a G1000
component or LRU is removed, swapped, or replaced, the technician must follow
the procedures given in Sections 6, 7 and 8 to ensure proper operation of the system.
Troubleshoot the G1000 system by first identifying, then isolating the specific failure to the responsible
LRU. There are several indications that the G1000 presents to the pilot or technician, showing overall
system condition. A course of action should be determined based on the information presented on the
display. This section shows possible scenarios likely to be encountered during normal operation and
gives troubleshooting guidance to the technician to resolve problems.

5.2 System Annunciations
If data fields become invalid due to an LRU failure, the PFD/MFD typically annunciates the failure with
a large red X, as shown in Figure 5-4.
IMPORTANT!
Once the FAILED PATH message has been triggered, it will remain on the list of
messages until the next power cycle. This latching was implemented so that for
intermittent failures, the message would remain at the end of the flight (to alert

5.6 GFC 700 AFCS Troubleshooting
The GFC 700 is a digital Automatic Flight Control System (AFCS) which is integrated into various
components of the G1000. This section touches upon key items to note while troubleshooting the GFC
700.
Should a problem be encountered during the operation of the GFC 700, the pilot and technician should
first evaluate the overall status and condition of the G1000 system at the AUX – System Status page (on
MFD). Any alert messages, annunciations, or other abnormal behaviors should be noted in an effort to
pinpoint the fault. The object is to locate the fault within a LRU or LRUs in efforts to replace the
defective equipment.
The GFC 700 AFCS Annunciation field is located above the airspeed tape on the PFD as shown:

5.6.3.1 Servo Faults and Troubleshooting
Whenever a servo fault occurs, a status message is logged to the corresponding servo control or monitor
maintenance log. This information is also accompanied by a time and date stamp. An “RTC DATE”
entry is made every time a servo is powered on, it is normally not useful for troubleshooting.
The following is a listing of possible faults that could be reported in a GSA fault log. Faults can occur in
either the monitor board processor or the control board processor, both of which are contained in the GSA
unit.
Monitor Processor
The monitor processor contains the logs that are found in these processors -
2 – Pitch Servo
4 – Roll Servo
6 - Yaw
8 – Pitch Trim Servo
There are two main groupings of faults that can occur in the monitor processor:
The first grouping of faults can occur during the GSA unit pre-flight test (PFT). If there is a fault during
PFT the unit will not be able to transition to normal mode and the only way to clear this state would be to
cycle unit power.
The second grouping of faults can occur during normal mode. These faults generally cause a disconnect
of power to the GSA and report that a fault has occurred to the GIA.
The Notes column indicates any actions that can be taken to troubleshoot the problem in the aircraft by
the technician. Any faults that are not listed here indicate an internal problem requiring replacement of
the servo. If the items in the Notes column check out ok, replace the servo.

Revision 6 190-00915-01
Control Processor
The control processor contains the logs that are found in these processors –
3 – Pitch Servo
5 – Roll Servo
7 - Yaw
9 – Pitch Trim Servo
There are two main groupings of faults that can occur in the control processor.
The first grouping of faults can occur during the GSA unit pre-flight test (PFT). If there is a fault during
PFT the unit will not be able to transition to normal mode and the only way to clear this state would be to
cycle unit power.
The second grouping of faults can occur during normal mode. These faults generally cause a disconnect
of power to the GSA and report that a fault has occurred to the GIA.
The Notes column indicates any actions that can be taken to troubleshoot the problem in the aircraft by
the technician. Any faults that are not listed here indicate an internal problem requiring replacement of
the servo. If the items in the Notes column check out ok, replace the servo.

5.6.3.2 Downloading GIA and GSA Maintenance Logs
If additional assistance is needed troubleshooting autopilot faults, the Maintenance logs can be
downloaded to an SD card as a text file (.txt) and emailed to Garmin Aviation Product Support. Please
call Garmin Aviation Product Support before you send a Maintenance Log to notify them you are sending
it to prevent a delay in response. You may download multiple GIA and GSA Maintenance Logs to the
same file, however in your email to Garmin you must furnish the order in which they were downloaded
(i.e. GIA1, then GIA2, then SRVO PTCH MON, then SRVO PTCH CTL, etc.).
1. Insert a FAT 32 formatted SD card into the top slot of the PFD before turning on the displays.
2. Power up PFD1, PFD2 and MFD in the configuration mode.
3. On the PFD1 in the System page group, use the small FMS knob to scroll to the Diagnostics
Terminal page.
4. Press the LG2CRD softkey at the bottom of the PFD1. Verify that the softkey text grays out. This
indicates the recording function is active and all text that is displayed in the OUTPUT window will
be saved to the card.
5. Enable the cursor by pressing the FMS knob, select “GIA1” in the LRU drop down menu and then
press the ENT key to select it.
6. Skip the SERVO box and move the cursor to the COMMAND box and select “View Maintenance
Log” in the drop down menu then press the ENT key. The error log data will be displayed in the
OUTPUT box. If you see the “more…press any key to continue” text at the bottom of the screen,
you may need to reselect “View Maintenance Log” for GIA data to allow it to continue scrolling
down the screen (pressing any key will not continue, disregard the text instruction you to do so).
Continue to scroll through all the OUTPUT data until you see the text, “End of Fault Log”.
7. Move the curser back to the LRU box, select “GIA2” in the LRU drop down menu and then press
the ENT key to select it.
8. Skip the SERVO box and move the cursor to the COMMAND box and select “View Maintenance
Log” in the drop down menu then press the ENT key. The error log data will be displayed in the
OUTPUT box. If you see the “more…press any key to continue” text at the bottom of the screen,
you may need to reselect “View Maintenance Log” for GIA data to allow it to continue scrolling
down the screen (pressing any key will not continue, disregard the text instruction you to do so).
Continue to scroll through all the OUTPUT data until you see the text, “End of Fault Log”.
9. If you need to download Servo fault logs (usually done at the request of Garmin Product Support),
perform the following steps. Otherwise, skip to step 10.
a) In the LRU box, you may select either “GIA1” or “GIA2”.
b) In the SERVO box, choose a servo using the FMS knobs. Each servo contains two logs, one in
the Monitor (MON) processor and one in the Control (CTL) processor. You must download
both for each servo separately.
c) In the COMMAND box, select “View Maintenance Log” and press the ENT key.
d) The log will appear in the OUTPUT box. It will scroll to the end automatically. When it is
complete, repeat steps a-c for the other servos in the aircraft. Be sure to note the order the
servos were downloaded in including the Monitor or Control logs to email to Garmin Product
Support. Without knowing the order in which the logs were downloaded, Garmin will be unable
to process them and will ask for another full download.
10. Press the LG2CRD softkey to turn off the recording function.
11. Wait 1 minute for the system to save the data from the download to the SD card.
G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air Page 5-41
190-00915-01 Revision 6
12. While you are waiting for the data to be saved to the SD card, record the order of the LRU’s and/or
Servos were downloaded so that you can provide that information to Cessna or Garmin to help
decipher the order of the error data.
13. Power down the G1000 System and remove the SD card.
14. Insert the SD card in the card reader of a laptop or desktop computer and open the
“diag_buf_log.txt” file from the SD card using the WordPad program. Verify that all of the fault
logs were downloaded by checking for the “End of Fault Log” message at the end of the GIA data,
and that the last servo log entry has the current date.
15. Insert the fault log as an attachment to an email and include the LRU order how the data was
downloaded and send to Garmin Aviation Product Support at avionics@Garmin.com.

5.7 Backup Communications Path Checks
5.7.1 Overview
The G1000 system architecture is designed with redundant communication ports for several LRUs so that
critical information can continue to be displayed in the event of an equipment or wiring failure. Of most
importance is flight attitude, heading, and air data information. The GRS 77 and GDC 74B each have
four separate ARINC 429 data lines which are all capable of sending data to the displays. The GEA 71,
GTX 33(D), and GMA 1347D each have two redundant serial communication paths for the same
purpose. See Figure 2-21 for a basic G1000 block diagram depicting this architecture. Several other
diagrams are shown later in this section for illustrative purposes. When troubleshooting, refer to the
G1000/GFC 700 Wiring Diagram listed in Table 1-2.
NOTE:
Refer to Section 8.1.6 for procedures on checking the status of each configured G1000 /
GFC 700 backup data path.

5.9.6 GMA Common Problems
Symptom/Failure Recommended Action
Message
Noise in Audio Most often the cause of the noise is external to the GMA. Try the following to locate the
source of the noise before replacing the GMA:
• Try a different pair of headsets. Noise cancelling headsets may pick up and/or
generate more noise than standard headsets from their own circuitry.
• Check for noise with the engine turned off.
9 If the noise is present only when the engine is running, check the generator
and/or ignition system as possible sources of noise (see applicable airframe
specific maintenance manual).
• Check for noise as all electrical equipment is turned on and off (strobes, other
radios, etc.).
9 If the noise is identified from one electrical system or component refer to the
applicable airframe specific maintenance manual.
• Ensure the NAV/COM squelch is not open.
• Ensure the ADF and DME audio is not active.
• Ensure the marker beacon audio is not active.
• Ensure the ICS squelch is not open.
9 Master squelch level can be adjusted on the GMA CONFIGURATION page for
higher noise environments.
• Replace unit only after all possible external sources of noise are eliminated.
Buttons Do Not Work. • Some buttons are disabled in the GMA CONFIGURATION page by default. This is
to remove potential sources of audio noise for inputs that are not used. If in doubt
as to which buttons should be disabled, reload GMA config files and other config
files for optional equipment installed in the aircraft (i.e. ADF, HF, etc.) from the
loader card.
COM Bleedover • Verify on the GMA CONFIGURATION page that “Disable Split COM” has a green
box. Due to the closeness of the COM antennas and high power of the COM
transceivers, Split COM operation is not approved. If the box is black (indicating
COM ½ button is active), highlight “Disable Split COM” with the cursor and press the
ENT key to turn the box green which will deactivate Split COM mode.
Speaker Cuts Out • Reduce volume level of the item that caused the speaker to cut out when turned up.
A speaker protection circuit disables the speaker output if the volume is too high. If
the volume is not sufficient, replace aircraft cabin speaker, reference the Airframe
Maintenance Manual.
Mic Audio Heard in • Reduce ICS Volume.

Symptom Recommended Action
• Ensure that a cell phone or a device using cell phone technology is
not turned on (even in a monitoring state) in the cabin.
• Using the MFD AUX – GPS Status page, verify the signal strength
bars are not erratic. If so, this indicates outside interference is
affecting the GPS receivers. Find and remove the source of
interference (i.e. cell phones, FBO datalink antennas, etc.).
• Check date and time on Date/Time Setup Page.
9 If date and time are incorrect, enter the correct date and time.
• Switch GIA1 and GIA2, to verify location of problem:
9 If problem follows unit, clear the GPS almanac by performing
the following steps –
o Using the PFD in config mode, go to the GIA RS-
232/ARNIC 429 Config Page.

satellites (GIA1 or GIA2) and press the ENT key.
o Press the “CLR NV” softkey at the bottom of the screen.
o Select “OK” in the “Clear GIA nonvolatile memory?” pop-up
window.
o Next reload GIA Audio and Config files from a loader card,
see Section 4.3 and on for instructions. Be sure to reload
the config files for any optional equipment installed on the
aircraft that require the GIA config to be updated.
• Cycle power on the system and allow it to restart in normal mode.
Place the aircraft outside and allow 15-30 minutes for the GPS to
acquire a position and download a new almanac.
9 If clearing nonvolatile memory is unsuccessful and the GPS
still can not acquire a position, replace the GIA.
9 If problem does not follow unit, check GPS antenna and cabling.

displayed 9Reseat the GDL 69/69A to verify the coax connector is
fully seated.
9 If unit is not active, contact XM Customer service to have a
refresh signal sent to your unit. You will need to provide
them the Audio Radio ID (and Data Radio ID number for XM
weather) numbers. Also verify with XM that the correct
Weather package (Aviator Lite or Aviator) is on the account,
and that no traffic service has been activated against that
Radio ID. The unit must be on for approximately one hour
after the request for the refresh has been sent to receive the
signal.
9Alternatively, you may also go to XM’s website and enter
the radio ID’s to have a refresh signal sent.
9 If there is still problems receiving weather products after
performing the above step, call XM and have the account
deactivated, and a new account activated to clear out any
corrupt account information.
9 Verify there is a good ground connection through the aircraft
between the MFD and the GDL69/69A unit. Reference the
Aircraft Maintenance Manual for instructions on how to
check bonding and ground points.

with precise start and stop times for exercising all electronic devices”. The list of
relevant electronic devices are given in Table 5-5. Begin test with flaps retracted, flight
controls in a neutral position, all lights selected OFF.

NOTE
It is important that the “time equals zero” moment corresponds with the moment the PFD
first displays the blinking TEST COMPLETE? Message.
7. The operator should carry out the actions called for in the prepared test sequence.
NOTE
It is important that all actions are carried out in the order and at the precise elapsed time
as specified in the prepared test sequence.
8. When the operator has completed the actions specified in the test sequence, press the ENTER button
to indicate that the process is complete. When this is done, the TEST COMPLETE field stops
blinking.
9. PFD1 informs the operator if the installation has passed or failed the magnetometer interference test.
If the test passes, no further action is required for this test.
If the test fails, the installation should be considered unreliable until the source of magnetic interference
is identified and remedied. When the magnetometer interference test fails, record the three magnetometer
maximum deviation values and their corresponding timestamps. Any maximum deviation value greater
than 2.5 milliGauss indicates a problem that must be resolved. Compare the corresponding timestamps
with the prepared test sequence to identify which action produced the problem. Contact Garmin for
assistance in resolving the problem.
NOTE
Three common reasons for a failed magnetometer interference test are: 1) rudder
bellcrank or other structure has become magnetized, 2) new equipment is installed in
close proximity to the GMU 44 magnetometer, and 3) an existing or new electronic
device has become grounded through the aircraft structure instead of via the proper
ground wire in a twisted shielded pair.
10. Press the ENT key on the PFD to conclude this procedure.

7.6.1 Air Data Test (GDC 74B)
The G1000 system must be maintained in accordance with the G1000 System Maintenance Manual listed
in Table 1-3 and appropriate regulations. When the GDC 74B is tested in accordance with 14 CFR Part
43, Appendix E, note the following exceptions:
• For paragraph (b)(1)(i) Scale Error, use Table 7-5 of this section instead of Appendix E, Table I
• Do not perform paragraph (b)(1)(iv) Friction
• Do not perform paragraph (b)(1)(vi) Barametric Scale Error
The following Air Data Test is to be performed in addition to or in conjunction with any other regulated
tests. This test must be performed on both pilot and copilot systems with a calibrated Air Data Test Set
(ADTS) with a combined accuracy/repeatability specification of less than ±20 feet for the test altitude
range.
1. Perform pitot static system leak check of each system as described in the King Air 200 Series
Maintenance Manual, 34-00-00, with the following changes:
a. For the pitot leak check, set the air data test unit to an indicated airspeed of 200 knots with the
static system vented to ambient pressure conditions (ground). Pitot leak rate is not to exceed 1
knot in 1 minute.
b. For the static leak check, set the air data test set to 30,000 feet and an indicated airspeed of 120
knots. Static leak rate is not to exceed 300 feet in 1 minute.
2. Connect the pitot/static tester to the aircraft left and right pitot and static ports. Note that the
standby altimeter and airspeed indicator are connected to the copilot side pitot and static lines.
3. Verify that the PFD1 altimeter baro setting is set to 29.92 in Hg (1013.25 mb).
4. Start PFD1 in configuration mode and navigate to the GRS page. The values for altitude and
airspeed are shown on the AHRS/AIR DATA INPUT table as B ALT and IAS for both
AIR DATA 1 and AIR DATA 2.
5. Simulate the altitudes and airspeeds for each condition shown in Table 7-5. Wait for ADTS to
report that target values have been achieved.
6. On Table 7-5, record the altitude (B ALT) displayed on PFD1 for AIR DATA 1 and AIR DATA 2
for each condition.
7. On Table 7-5, record the airspeed (IAS) displayed on PFD1 for AIR DATA 1 and AIR DATA 2 for
each condition.
8. Verify that the indicated altitudes and airspeeds are within allowable tolerances.
9. File the results with the aircraft maintenance records.
If either the pilot or copilot air data system does not meet the tolerances specified, have maintenance
checks performed on the air data system or the pitot/static system.

records the required pitch and roll offsets, informs the operator of a successful conclusion and
returns to normal operation.
12. Press the ENT key on the PFD to conclude this procedure for GRS 77 #1.
13. Repeat steps 1 through 6 for GRS 77 #2.
NOTE
The Magnetometer Calibration Procedure that follows in Section 7.7.4
(Calibration Procedure B) must be carried out at a site that is determined
to be free of magnetic disturbances. If it is unsure whether the site is
‘clean’, the technician should verify that the site is ‘clean’ by following
the guidance provided in Section 7.7.3. The technician may skip Section
7.7.3 if the site condition is acceptable.
7.7.3 Compass Rose Evaluation of Magnetic Disturbances for Magnetometer
Calibration Procedure (Optional)
NOTE
Typically, a compass rose is an acceptable location to perform the
magnetometer calibration procedure. However, because not all compass
roses are well maintained, even an existing compass rose should be
regularly evaluated using the method described here to determine if it is
free of magnetic disturbances. If evaluation of an existing compass rose
indicates that magnetic disturbances are present, then an alternative
location must be found to perform the Magnetometer Calibration
Procedure.
A G1000-equipped airplane that has completed the pitch/roll offset compensation procedure (Procedure
A-1, Section 7.7.2) can be used to evaluate a candidate site for magnetic disturbances and determine
whether it is a suitable location to perform the magnetometer calibration procedure. The magnetometer
calibration procedure itself contains the logic to simultaneously survey the location for magnetic
cleanliness while it is computing the magnetometer calibration parameters.
In order to evaluate a candidate site, the Magnetometer Calibration Procedure must be performed twice:
once turning clockwise around the site, and once turning counter-clockwise. Both times, the procedure
should be conducted as described in Section 7.7.4 of this document, with the exception of the direction of
turns around the site.
NOTE
Although Section 7.7.4 indicates that the Magnetometer Calibration
Procedure should be performed by making a series of clockwise turns
around the site, the procedure can also be performed by making counter-
clockwise turns for the purpose of evaluating the site for magnetic
disturbances.
If the PFD displays the “CALIBRATION SUCCESSFUL / SITE IS CLEAN” message upon completion
of the Magnetometer Calibration Procedure in each clockwise and counter-clockwise direction, then the
candidate site is sufficiently free of magnetic disturbances and is acceptable for performing the
Magnetometer Calibration Procedure. It is important to obtain successful result in both the clockwise and
counter-clockwise directions to ensure that the magnetometer sweeps over a large enough area at the
candidate site.
If the PFD displays either the “MAG FIELD AT SITE NOT UNIFORM” or “MAG FIELD AT SITE
DIFFERS FROM IGRF MODEL” message upon completion of the Magnetometer Calibration Procedure
in either of the two directions, then the site contains magnetic disturbances that are too large.

190-00915-01 Revision 6
7.7.4 Procedure B: GRS 77/GMU 44 Magnetic Calibration
NOTE
Procedure A-1 (Section 7.7.2) must first be successfully accomplished before performing
Procedure B, only for situations where the GRS 77 was replaced with a new unit.
Calibration Procedure B must be carried out on a compass rose in order to guarantee
measurements free of environmental magnetic disturbances. Attempting to carry out this
maneuver on a typical ramp area may not yield a successful calibration. The accuracy of
the AHRS cannot be guaranteed if this calibration is not performed on a magnetically
clean compass rose. If the compass rose condition is not known, it is recommended that
the technician follow the guidance in Section 7.7.3.
1. Start the aircraft engine following the procedures referenced in the appropriate King Air AFM or
AFMS as shown in the General Arrangement drawing, listed in Table 1-2.
2. After aircraft engine startup, taxi the aircraft to a properly calibrated compass rose.
3. At the compass rose, align the aircraft to a heading of magnetic north (±5°).
CAUTION
Calibration Procedure B must be carried out on a compass rose in order to guarantee
measurements free of environmental magnetic disturbances. Attempting to carry out this
maneuver on a typical ramp area may not yield a successful calibration. The accuracy of
the AHRS cannot be guaranteed if this calibration is not performed on a magnetically
clean compass rose or equivalent.
NOTE
This procedure provides instructions for calibrating both GRS 77 magnetometers
separately. It is acceptable to calibrate both GRS 77 magnetometers simultaneously by
putting both PFD 1 and PFD 2 in configuration mode and following the procedure below,
using PFD 1 to calibrate GRS #1 and PFD 2 to calibrate GRS #2.
Page 7-22 G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air
Revision 6 190-00915-01
12. Upon instruction to turn, taxi the aircraft in a right turn. After approximately 25° to 30° of turn from
the last heading, the PFD display advises the operator to stop the aircraft.
NOTE
Due to the difficulties in executing smooth, accurate turns the PFD may incorrectly
interpret a station and instruct to “HOLD POSITION” prior to full completion of a 30°
turn. If this scenario is encountered, it is best for the operator to ignore the “HOLD
POSITION” command and instead use outside references to complete the approximate
30° turn. Instead of using the PFD instruction to turn as a real-time indication of when to
turn, simply judge the 30° (±5°) turn increments of the aircraft by using the compass rose
radials. Dwelling at these 30° increments for the time recommended by the PFD should
result in successful calibration.
13. The PFD guides the operator to dwell at multiple headings around a complete circle.
NOTE
Due to high winds or excessive airframe vibration, the operator may encounter a
condition where the PFD restarts the 18-second countdown without full completion of the
previous countdown. If this is encountered more than once for a given station, the
operator should begin turning to the next station (approximately 30°). A minimum of 2
successful stations per quadrant is required, where a successful station is a full 18-second
countdown followed by instruction to move. Ensure that at least 2 stations per quadrant
are completed. Thus, it may sometimes be required to dwell at a station after a
countdown restart. A maximum of 30 stations is allowed for the entire calibration
procedure. If too many countdown restarts are encountered, the calibration will fail with
the message, “TOO MANY STATIONS.”
14. Repeat the turn-and-stop process until the PFD advises that a successful calibration is complete.
The GRS 77 AHRS then enters its normal operational mode. Press the ENT button on the PFD to
conclude this procedure.
15. Repeat steps 4 through 14 for GRS 77 #2.

190-00915-01 Revision 6
7.7.5 Procedure D: Engine Run-Up Vibration Procedure
NOTE
Calibration Procedure D is performed in order to guarantee that the AHRS mounting is
sufficiently rigid and insensitive to vibration. This procedure must be performed for both
GRS 77 units installed in the aircraft. Calibration Procedures A1 and B (Sections 7.7.2
and 7.7.4 respectively) are not required prior to this procedure.
1. Press the FMS small knob to highlight GRS 77 #1. The FMS small knob can now be turned to select
either GRS 77 #1 or GRS 77 #2 for calibration. Press the ENT key after selecting the desired GRS 77
unit to calibrate. The SELECT PROCEDURE field is not blinking.
2. Initiate the AHRS engine run-up vibration test procedure by performing the following steps:
a) Select the ENGINE RUN-UP TEST procedure and press the ENT key.
b) Follow the checklist items displayed on the PFD, and press the ENT key as each one is completed
or confirmed. When the CALIBRATE field is blinking, press the ENT key to begin the
procedure.
3. The PFD display instructs the operator to gradually increase power from idle to full throttle and back
to idle over a period of 2-4 minutes.
4. When the operator has completed the engine run-up and the engine is back to an idle setting, press the
ENT key to indicate that the process is complete. When this is done, the TEST COMPLETE field
stops blinking.
5. The PFD informs the operator if the installation has passed or failed the vibration test. If the test fails,
the specific measurements causing the failure are identified and associated numeric values are
displayed on the PFD.
Page 7-24 G1000 / GFC 700 System Maintenance Manual - 200/B200 Series King Air
Revision 6 190-00915-01
NOTE
Should a failure occur, the technician may perform the Engine Run-up test up to 3 times
successively before corrective action must be taken. If the test does not pass after three
attempts, then the installation should not be considered reliable until the source of the
vibration problem is identified and remedied. In the event of repeated failure of the
engine run-up test, record the values that are reported to be out of range for future
reference.
The following are potential causes for failure of the engine run-up test:
a) Vibration motion of GRS77 and/or GMU44 caused by neighboring equipment
and/or supports.
b) Mounting screws and other hardware for GRS77 and/or GMU44 not firmly
attached.
c) GRS77 connector not firmly attached to unit.
d) Cabling leading to GRS77 or GMU44 not firmly secured to supporting structure.
e) An engine / propeller that is significantly out of balance.
6. Press the ENT key on the PFD to conclude this procedure
7. Repeats steps 1 through 6 for GRS 77 #2 and proceed to Section 7.7.6.

NOTE
The dial indicator shows 0.100 inch when completely flush. Therefore subtract the
readings from 0.100 inch to determine the actual static port height. This should be
completed before making any calculations.
3. For each static port, measure the static port height at the A, B, C and D locations as shown in Figure
7-12. Record the measurements in the measurement log, Figure 7-13.
4. Calculate the AVERAGE for each static port using the measurements by adding the four
measurements and dividing the total by 4. Record the AVERAGE in the measurement log, Figure
7-13.
5. Ensure the AVERAGE for each static port is within tolerance (+0.045 to +0.085 inch.) If it is not,
remove and reinstall the static ports as necessary to meet the tolerance.
6. Calculate the ANGLE for each static port by subtracting the smallest of the A, B, C or D
measurements from the largest of the A, B, C or D measurements. Record the ANGLE in the
measurement log, Figure 7-13.
7. Ensure the ANGLE for each static port is within tolerance (0.000 to +0.026 inch.) If it is not, remove

7.23.5 RVSM In-Flight Altitude Hold Check
RVSM operation requires that the autopilot system accurately maintain the acquired altitude during non-
turbulent, non-gust cruise conditions. The autopilot must be maintained in accordance with the G1000
System Maintenance Manual listed in Table 1-3. The autopilot must be shown to meet the performance
specification of the following in-flight altitude hold test.
1. Verify the following conditions (normal RVSM cruise flight):
• Altitude FL290 to FL350
• Altimeter setting 29.92 in Hg (1013 HPA)
• Autopilot altitude hold engaged
• Non-turbulent, non-gust conditions
2. Record the data from the primary cockpit displays as specified by Table 7-9 every 5 minutes for a
minimum flight segment of 30 minutes in length. The maximum altitude deviation shown on the
display throughout the test should not exceed ±65 feet.
If the aircraft fails to hold altitude to this tolerance, repeat the test ensuring that the airspeed remains
constant and the air remains stable during the entire test. If the test still fails, have maintenance checks
performed on the GFC 700 system, then repeat the test. RVSM operations are prohibited until the
autopilot is capable of maintaining altitude within ±65 feet of the selected cruise altitude.

2. Manually overpower the autopilot clutches in pitch, roll and yaw. If the Autopilot clutches cannot be
overpowered, check the GSM 85A clutch torque settings or GSM 86 clutch cartridge. Refer to the
servo installation drawing (listed in Table 1-2) as applicable.
3. Actuate and hold PITCH TRIM switch in either the NOSE UP or NOSE DOWN direction to
disconnect the autopilot. While the trim is running, restrain the aircraft pitch trim wheel and verify
that the trim clutch can be overpowered. If it cannot be overpowered, check the GSM 85A clutch
torque setting or GSM 86 clutch cartridge. Refer to the pitch trim servo installation drawing listed in
Table 1-2.
4. Engage the autopilot by pressing the AP key on the AFCS mode controller. Actuate and hold the
manual electric trim switch in either the up or down direction to disconnect the autopilot. Verify that
the trim wheel moves smoothly in both directions throughout the entire trim range during manual
electric trim operation. If the trim wheel hesitates, this may indicate that the pitch trim clutch is
slipping and proper clutch setting or clutch cartridge and cable tension should be verified. Refer to
the King Air 200 Series Maintenance Manual and Pitch Trim Servo Install drawing, listed in Table
1-2, for clutch settings and cable tensions. If both clutch setting and cable tension are within
tolerance, check the aircraft pitch trim system for excessive friction. Refer to the King Air 200 Series
Maintenance Manual listed in Table 1-2.

8.2.5 Autopilot Operation Checks
NOTE
For aircraft with software version 0985.03 and the Electronic Stability and
Protection (ESP) option, an airspeed of 200 knots must be input using a pitot-
static test set.
1. Engage the Autopilot by pressing the AP key on the AFCS mode controller. Push the HDG knob to
synchronize the heading bug to the current aircraft heading. Select HDG mode by pressing the HDG
key on the AFCS mode controller. Verify the command bars are level and the control wheel is
stationary. (There may be some roll motion in the yoke if the aircraft not perfectly level.)
2. Turn the HDG knob to the left and right and check that the command bars move in the correct
direction and the control wheel follows the command bars.
3. Push and hold the CWS button and pull the control wheel to the center of the pitch control range.
Release the CWS button. Verify the autopilot clutches re-engage and hold the wheel stationary.
4. Holding the control wheel lightly, rotate the NOSE UP/DN wheel on the AFCS mode controller two
clicks UP to increase the pitch reference. Verify the command bars move up 1 degree and the control
wheel begins moving aft. (In some aircraft, the down spring may require manual assistance to get aft
control stick movement).
5. While holding the control wheel firmly, press and hold the CWS button to re-synchronize the pitch
reference. Re-center the control wheel to wings level and mid-range elevator travel. Release the
CWS button and check that servo clutches re-engage before releasing the control wheel.
6. Rotate the NOSE UP/DN wheel on the AFCS mode controller two clicks DOWN to decrease the
pitch reference. Verify the command bars move down 1 degree and the control wheel begins moving
forward. Hold the controls and press CWS to re-center the command bars and stop control wheel
movement.
7. With the Autopilot still engaged and the CWS button pressed, move the control wheel to its aft limit.
Release the CWS button and apply continuous forward pressure, slowly moving the control wheel.
After a brief delay, verify the trim wheel begins moving in a trim up direction.
8. Grip the control wheel and press the CWS button. Verify trim motion stops. Move the control wheel
to the forward limit and release the CWS button. Slowly move the control wheel aft. After a brief
delay, verify the trim wheel begins to trim down. Relieve pressure on the wheel and verify the trim
motion stops. Check that the trim wheel is free to turn. Hold the control wheel and press the AP/YD
DISC TRIM INTRPT switch to disconnect the autopilot.

8.2.6 VOR/LOC/GS Test
Perform the following test using ramp test equipment. Operate the equipment according to the test
equipment manufacturer’s instructions.
NOTE
The PFD HSI does not show a course deviation bar unless a valid VHF NAV frequency
is tuned.
1. Ensure FD is coupled to PFD1 as indicated by a left pointing arrow next to the XFR button.
2. Simulate a VOR signal on a radial equivalent to the aircraft heading. Tune the NAV 1 and NAV 2
receivers to the simulation frequency.
3. Set the HSI on PFD1 to VOR1 by pressing the CDI soft key until VOR1 is selected. Set the HSI on
PFD2 to VOR2 by pressing the CDI soft key until VOR2 is selected. Rotate CRS1 and CRS2 knobs
to set VOR1 and VOR2 course pointers to aircraft heading. (CDI Synchronization must be set to
OFF on the AUX-SYSTEM SETUP 1 page on the MFD.)
4. Verify full scale deflection of VOR1 and VOR2 CDI by varying the selected course at least 10° left
and right. Reset course pointers to aircraft heading.
5. Engage the autopilot and press the NAV key on the AFCS mode controller. Using the CRS1 knob
alter course by 10° to the right. Verify the flight director and aircraft controls respond by flying to the
VOR course. Repeat to the left.
6. Couple FD to PFD2 by pressing the XFR button on the AFCS mode controller. Verify FD is coupled
right as indicated by a right pointing arrow on the AFCS mode controller next to the XFR button.
Repeat step 5 using CRS2 knob while coupled to PFD2.
7. Set CRS1 and CRS2 course pointers to aircraft heading.
8. Simulate a Localizer/Glideslope signal. Tune this signal on NAV 1 and NAV 2 receiver. Set the
PFD1 HSI to LOC1 and PFD2 HSI to LOC2 by pressing CDI soft key until LOC1 and LOC2 is
selected. Use the test equipment to center the deviation bars (localizer and glideslope) on PFD1 and
PFD2.
9. Press the APR key on the AFCS mode controller. Verify that the LOC and GS annunciations are
green on PFD1 and PFD2. Apply right/left and up/down localizer/glideslope signals using the test
equipment. Verify that the Flight Director and flight controls respond appropriately.
10. Couple FD to PFD1 by pressing the XFR button on the AFCS mode controller. Verify FD is coupled
to PFD1 as indicated by a left pointing arrow on the AFCS mode controller next to the XFR button.
