GNS-X.s part number 17960-0108-XXXX enables compliance with EASA TGL-10 with the addition of ARINC-424 procedural leg types and compliance with RTCA DO-200A navigation database procedures. ADVISORY CIRCULAR 90-100A Compliance to Advisory Circular 90-1004 is achieved with the P- RNAV software update. AC 90-100A is an FAA document titled “US Terminal and En Route Area Navigation (RNAV) Operations”, Aircraft compliance to AC 90-100A enables acceptance of RNAV ‘Type A and Type B SID / STAR procedures. The GNS-Xis PRNAV Flight Management System is an integrated system designed to give the pilot centralized control for the naviga- tion sensors, computer based fight planning, fuel management, and radio management. The GNS-Xis has a full color flat panel LCD dis- play, alpha-numeric and function keys, a Global Positioning Sensor (GPS), and a navigation data base. All these are housed in @ panel/pedestal mounted Control Display Unit (CDU). Al aircraft interface requirements are accomplished through the GNS- Xis. The system supports analog and digital inputs in any combina- tion. Specific aircraft requirements are programmed into a Configuration Module, This module mounts directly to the rear con- nector, thus remaining in the aircraft. This allows hardware to be easi- ly moved between aircraft types without changing system configura- tion, The following is a summary of the digital and analog interfaces: DIGITAL ANALOG AFIS ANtitude Air Data Computer Attitude Rate EFIS Cross Track Deviation Fuel Flow Discretes Rev. Mat ‘GNS-X.s PRNAV Flight Management System, LdDescription Inertial Navigation Sensor Dual VOR/DME Inertial Reference Sensor Fuel Flow VOR/DME, ADF, XPDR, COMM Heading Radio Tuning HSI Course & Bearing Cross Side FMS Roll Steering True Air Speed Vertical Deviation In addition to the GPS sensor, position information is accepted from Up to eight navigation sensors, inertial position sensors, or VOR/DME radios. These navigation sensor inputs can be blended to form a sin- gle composite position. Accuracy of this composite position is enhanced by using the best characteristics of each type of sensor. For example, an Inertial Reference System (IRS) has excellent short term characteristics. The internal GPS sensor has excellent overall characteristics and will usually be the dominant sensor during blend- ing. However, when RAIM is available, the GPS sensor is the sole Contributor to the composite position. NOTE: RAIM (Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring) is a quality factor used to determine the accuracy of the GPS position. It is an internal function of the GPS receiver and determines the accuracy of it's navigation solution. The navigation data base is updated on a 28-day cycle by way of a memory card. This card is inserted in a Personal Computer Memory Card Intemational Association (PCMCIA) slot located under the lower Portion of the alpha keyboard. This card must remain in the unit dur- ing operation. This worldwide database contains over 50,000 way- points, navaids and airports. It also contains altitudes at appropriate waypoints, SID, STAR, AIRWAY, and APPROACH procedures. In addition to this database, the memory can store up to 999 operator generated waypoints. Individual navigation points can be organized into 56 different stored flight plans, each containing up to 50 way- points. Additional capabilities of the GNS-X.s include direct navigation from present position to any waypoint, and data crossfill capability for dual installations. Trip Plan and Fuel Plan functions are also available. There is capability for creating a PSEUDO-VORTAC (selected course) to any waypoint and establishing an offset parallel course. NAVs, COMMs, ADFs and transponders can be tuned through the system or by using the individual control heads. 12 CGNS Xis PRNAV Flight Management System heiDescription GENERAL TERMS FIELD: CURSOR: PAGE: Aline of information, Yellow rectangular box placed over a field to enter or change the information in that field. The cursor is nor- ‘mally out of view unless brought into view by depressing the Line Select Keys on either side of the screen. When information is entered into a field and the ENTER Key is depressed, the cursor will move to the next enterable field or disappear from the screen when the last field is entered. Blinking of @ field indicates that the computer has not accepted the entry because of unreasonable or invalid information. Information is arranged in sections and subsections much like chapters in a book. Individual screen displays are referred to as pages. Each section is selected by depressing the appropriate Display Selector Key located at the top of the GNS-Xis. Each subsequent push of the key will select the next page of that section. A subsec- tion page is selected by depressing the Line Select Key next to the topic desired, then depressing the ENTER Key. The PRV, NXT, or BACK Key can be used to move forward or backward through pages of a subsec- tion. If the first page of @ subsection is displayed, the BACK Key will exit the subsection. WAYPOINT:A navigation point consisting of 1 to 6 alpha, numeric Rev. 1 Maytt characters that has a specific latitude and longitude. (GNS Xs PRNAV light Management System 13Description CONTROLS AND INDICATORS ON: Depress and release the ON Key to apply power to the sys- tem. There is a warm-up period of approximately 30 seconds. ‘The display illumination will tially be set at 75% of full bright. Depressing the ON Key for approximately three seconds will initiate the system power off ‘sequence. During the sequence the display will show SYSTEM TURNING OFF. This is to prevent inadvertent system shutdown. NOTE: The system is also capable of being turned on and off by cycling aircratt power. BRIGHTNESS (BRT): The BRT Key is used to change the illumination of the display. This key is also used for paral lax adjustment of the Line Select Keys NOTE: The illumination of the front panel and keyboard is nor- ‘mally controlled through the air- craft panel lighting control. MESSAGE KEY/ANNUNCIA- TOR (MSG): ‘The MSG annunciator will flash to alert the operator that a mes- sage needs to be viewed on one of the SYSTEM MES- SAGES or SENSOR MES- SAGES Pages. 14 GGNS-Xis PRNAV light Management Sytem MayaDescription Depressing the MSG Key will display the message page. The newest message will be indicated with a flashing asterisk to the left of the message. If the message requires some action be taken by the operator, the MSG annunciator will remain on steadily until the action is completed. If no action is required, the MSG annunciator will extin- guish when the message page is exited. ALPHA KEYS: The alpha keys are used to enter the 26 letters of the alpha- bet and an asterisk. NUMERIC KEYS: The numeric keys are used to enter numbers 0 to 9, # and =. HOLD KEY: Ifthe cursor is positioned over a waypoint identifier, and it is appropriate to program a Holding Pattern at that way- point, depressing the HOLD Key accesses the Holding Pattern page. If the cursor is not displayed, depressing the HOLD Key accesses the POSITION FIX Page and is used for position updates and verification as well as entering the primary naviga- tion mode. If the aircraft is on the ground preparing for takeott; pressing the HOLD key accesses the TAKEOFF POSITION Shift page Rev. 1 ay (GNS Xis PRNAV light Management System 15Description BACK KEY: ‘The BACK Key is used to erase errors and page backward when the cursor is not dis- played. It can also be used to change data in a field if the cur- sor is present. SPACE (SP) KEY: The SP Key is used to enter a space when entering a mes- sage on an AFIS Page. This key is not functional if AFIS is ‘ot installed in the system. ENTER KEY: When the ENTER Key is depressed, data is entered into the computer memory.
