Garmin G1000 PFD Pilot's Guide for Mooney M20M & M20R 190-00443-00 Rev. A INTRODUCTION 3. 1 INTRODUCTION This Pilot's Guide describes the major features of the Primary Flight Display (PFD) on the G1000 Integrated Cockpit System installed on the Mooney aircraft. During normal operation, the left display is configured as a Primary Flight Display. The PFD provides increased situational awareness by replacing the traditional "six pack" of instruments in the pilot's panel with an easy-to-scan display that provides a large horizon, airspeed, attitude, altitude, vertical speed, navigation, communication, annunciation, terrain, traffic and lightning information. [. . . ] A SUPPLEMENTAL FLIGHT DATA WORKING WITH MENUS Much of the G1000 operation is accomplished using a menu interface. The G1000 has a bezel-mounted dedicated MENU key that, when pressed, displays a context-sensitive list of options. This option list allows the pilot to access additional features or make setting changes which specifically relate to the currently displayed window. Some menus provide access to additional sub-menus that are in turn used to view, edit, select and review options. Once the Page Menu window is displayed, turn the FMS knob to scroll through a list of available options (a scroll bar always appears to the right of the window when the option list is longer than the window) and press the ENT key to select the desired option. The CLR key may be pressed to remove the menu and cancel the operation. Pressing the FMS knob also removes the displayed menu. AUXILIARY WINDOW KEYS The main keys which are used in association with the PFD Auxiliary window operations are listed below: · DIRECT-TO ­ Activates the direct-to function, and allows the user to enter a destination waypoint and establishes a direct course to the selected destination (specified by identifier chosen from the active route). · FPL ­ Displays the active Flight Plan Page for creating and editing the active flight plan or accessing stored flight plans. · CLR ­ Erases information, cancels an entry, or removes page menus. This option list allows the user to access additional features or make setting changes which relate to certain pages. · PROC ­ Selects approaches, departures and arrivals for the flight plan. When using a flight plan, available procedures for departure and/or arrival airport are offered automatically. If a flight plan is not used, the desired airport, then the desired procedure may be selected. This key selects IFR departure procedures (SIDs), arrival procedures (STARs) and approaches (SIAPs) from the database and loads them into the active flight plan. It is also used to confirm information. NOTE: Pressing the softkeys does not display a menu or sub-menu.
