1.5 SYSTEM POWER-UP

NOTE:

See the Aircraft Flight Manual (AFM) for specific procedures concerning avionics power application

and emergency power supply operation.

NOTE:

Refer to Appendix A for system-specific annunciations and alerts.

The G1000 System is integrated with the aircraft electrical system and receives power directly from electrical

busses. The G1000 PFD, MFD, and supporting sub-systems include both power-on and continuous built-in test
features that exercise the processor, RAM, ROM, external inputs, and outputs to provide safe operation.

During system initialization, test annunciations are displayed, as shown in Figure 1-2. All system annunciations

should disappear typically within the first minute of power-up. Upon power-up, key annunciator lights also
become momentarily illuminated on the Audio Panel and the display bezels.

On the PFD, the AHRS begins to initialize and displays “AHRS ALIGN: Keep Wings Level”. The AHRS should

display valid attitude and heading fields typically within the first minute of power-up. The AHRS can align itself
both while taxiing and during level flight.

When the MFD powers up, the splash screen (Figure 1-5) displays the following information:

• System version
• Copyright
• Land database name and version
• Safe Taxi database information
• Terrain database name and version

• Airport Terrain database name and version

• Obstacle database name and version
• Navigation database name, version, and effective

dates

• Airport Directory name, version and effective dates
• FliteCharts/ChartView database information

Current database information includes valid operating dates, cycle number, and database type. When this

information has been reviewed for currency (to ensure that no databases have expired), the pilot is prompted to
continue.

Pressing the ENT Key (or right-most softkey) acknowledges this information, and the Weight Planning Page is

displayed. When the system has acquired a sufficient number of satellites to determine a position, the aircraft’s
current position is shown on the Navigation Map Page.
