SYSTEM OVERVIEW SECTION 1 SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.1 SYSTEM DESCRIPTION This section is designed to provide an overview of the G1000 Integrated Flight Deck installed in the Quest Kodiak 100. The G1000 is an integrated flight deck system that presents flight instrumentation, position, navigation, communication, and identification information to the pilot using flat-panel color displays.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.2 LINE REPLACEABLE UNITS • GDU 1040 (3) – The GDU 1040 is configured as two Primary Flight Displays (PFD) and one 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 an IAU. • GMA 1347 – The Audio Panel integrates navigation/communication radio (NAV/COM) digital audio, intercom, and marker beacon controls, and is installed between the displays.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW • GDC 74 – 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 G1000 System, and it communicates with the primary IAU, displays, and AHRS using an ARINC 429 digital interface. • GEA 71 – The Engine Airframe Unit receives and processes signals from the engine and airframe sensors.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW • 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 – The Data Link Satellite Radio Receiver provides real-time weather information to the G1000 MFD and PFD Inset Map, as well as digital audio entertainment. The Data Link Receiver communicates with the MFD via a HSDB connection.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.3 SECURE DIGITAL (SD) CARDS NOTE: Ensure the G1000 System is powered off before inserting an SD card. NOTE: Refer to Appendix B for instructions on updating the aviation database. The PFD and MFD data card slots use Secure Digital (SD) cards and are located on the upper right side of the display bezels. Each display bezel is equipped with two SD card slots. SD cards are used for aviation database and system software updates as well as terrain database storage.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW 1.4 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.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW Figure 1-2 PFD Initialization Figure 1-3 MFD Power-Up Splash Screen 1.5 SYSTEM OPERATION NOTE: In normal operating mode, backlighting can only be adjusted from the PFD. In reversionary mode, it can be adjusted from the remaining display. The displays are connected together via a single Ethernet bus for high-speed communication. Each IAU is connected to the on-side display.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW Primary Flight Display Multi Function Display Figure 1-4 G1000 Normal Display Operation 1-8 Garmin G1000 Pilot’s Guide for the Quest Kodiak 100 190-00590-00 Rev.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW REVERSIONARY DISPLAY OPERATION NOTE: The G1000 System alerts the pilot when backup paths are utilized by the LRUs. Refer to Appendix A for further information regarding system-specific alerts. In the event of a display failure, the G1000 System automatically switches to reversionary (backup) mode. In reversionary mode, all important flight information is presented on the remaining display in the same format as in normal operating mode.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW AHRS OPERATION NOTE: Refer to Appendix A for specific AHRS alert information. NOTE: Aggressive maneuvering while AHRS is not operating normally may degrade AHRS accuracy. The Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) performs attitude, heading, and vertical acceleration calculations for the G1000 System, utilizing GPS, magnetometer, and air data in addition to information from its internal sensors.
SYSTEM OVERVIEW AIR DATA INPUT FAILURE Failure of the air data input has no effect on the AHRS output while AHRS is receiving valid GPS information. Invalid/unavailable airspeed data in addition to GPS failure results in loss of all attitude and heading information.

APPENDIX A TAWS ALERTS Annunciations appear on the PFD and MFD. Pop-up alerts appear only on the MFD.
APPENDIX B SD CARD USE The G1000 System uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various types of data. For basic flight operations, SD cards are required for database storage as well as Jeppesen aviation and Chartview database updates. JEPPESEN DATABASES The Jeppesen aviation database is updated on a 28 day cycle. The Chartview database is updated on a 14 day cycle. If the Chartview database is not updated within 70 days of the expiration date, Chartview will no longer function.
APPENDIX B Figure B-2 Database Update Confirmation 4) After the update completes, the PFD starts in normal mode. 5) Turn the G1000 System OFF and remove the SD card. 6) Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the MFD. The MFD and PFD databases are now updated. Remove the SD card when finished. 7) Verify that the correct update cycle is loaded during startup of the MFD.
APPENDIX B NOTE: The data contained in the terrain and obstacle databases comes from government agencies. Garmin accurately processes and cross-validates the data, but cannot guarantee the accuracy and completeness of the data. The SafeTaxi database contains detailed airport diagrams for selected airports. These diagrams aid in following ground control instructions by accurately displaying the aircraft position on the map in relation to taxiways, ramps, runways, terminals, and services.
APPENDIX B 3) Acknowledge the Power-up Page agreement by pressing the ENT Key or the right most softkey. 4) At the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP Page, select the MAP Softkey and check to make sure that the TOPO and TERRAIN Softkeys are functional (not grayed out) and other database features are functioning. 5) Power down the G1000.

APPENDIX D FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS If a particular aspect of G1000 operational capability is not addressed by these commonly asked questions or in the index, contact Garmin (see the copyright page or back cover for contact information) or a Garmin-authorized dealer. Garmin is dedicated to supporting its products and customers. WHAT IS WAAS? The Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS) uses a system of ground stations to correct any GPS signal errors.
APPENDIX D RAIM ensures that satellite geometry allows for a navigation solution calculation within a specified protection limit (2.0 nm for oceanic and en route, 1.0 nm for terminal, and 0.3 nm for non-precision approaches). The G1000 System monitors RAIM and issues an alert message when RAIM is not available (see Appendix A). Without RAIM, GPS position accuracy cannot be monitored. If RAIM is not available when crossing the FAF, the pilot must fly the missed approach procedure.
APPENDIX D Normal (OBS not activated) • Automatic sequencing of waypoints OBS • Manual sequencing - ‘holds’ on selected waypoint • Manual course change on HSI not possible • Manually select course to waypoint from HSI • Always navigates ‘TO’ the active waypoint • Indicates ‘TO’ or ‘FROM’ waypoint • Must be in this mode for final approach course • Cannot be set for final approach course or published holding patterns When OBS mode is active, the G1000 allows the pilot to set a desired course to/from a w
APPENDIX D WHEN DOES THE CDI SCALE CHANGE? When 30 nm from the destination, the G1000 begins a smooth CDI scale transition from 5.0 nm (en route mode) to 1.0 nm (terminal mode). When 2 nm from the FAF during an active approach, the CDI scale transitions to 0.3 nm (approach mode). When executing a missed approach, the CDI can be returned to the 1.0 nm scale by selecting the SUSP Softkey. The CDI is also set to 1.0 nm (terminal mode) within 30 nm of the departure airport.
APPENDIX E GENERAL TIS INFORMATION INTRODUCTION NOTE: Aircraft without an operating transponder are invisible to TIS. The Traffic Information Service (TIS) provides traffic advisory information to non-TAS/TCAS-equipped aircraft. TIS is a ground-based service providing the relative locations of all ATCRBS Mode-A and Mode-C transponder equipped aircraft within a specified service volume. The TIS ground sensor uses real-time track reports to generate traffic notification.
APPENDIX E WARNING: Garmin is not responsible for Mode S geographical coverage. Operation of the ground stations is the responsibility of the FAA. Refer to the AIM for a Terminal Mode S radar site map. NOTE: TIS is unavailable at low altitudes in many areas of the United States. This is often the case in mountainous regions. TIS information is collected during a single radar sweep. Collected information is then sent through the Mode S uplink on the next radar sweep.
