10. FLIGHT COMPARTMENT, INSTRUMENTATION AND AVIONICS

(Continued)

The GMC 710 Mode Controller, located just below the

glareshield, enables the selection of flight director and

autopilot modes for either pilot. The AFCS modes may

be hand flown using the flight director command bars or

coupled to the autopilot for automatic flight. Selection of

the autopilot will automatically enable the flight director.

Modes of operation include attitude, heading, altitude,

speed, and vertical speed, as well as VNAV and the var-

ious NAV radio and GPS navigation modes. In addition,

the AFCS provides a takeoff/go-around mode activated

by a button on the left throttle handle. Control Wheel

Steering (CWS) and AP disconnect functions are con-

trolled via switches on each yoke.

The pitch trim servo also provides electric pitch trim

when the autopilot is not engaged, through yoke mount-

ed trim switches. The yaw servo may be activated by the

pilot during normal maneuvers to provide Dutch roll

damping and turn coordination. Or, it will automatically

engage with autopilot activation.

M. Transponders

The Garmin GTX 33D transponders reply to Mode A,

Mode C, and Mode S interrogation. Ground stations can

interrogate Mode S Transponders individually using a

24-bit ICAO Mode S address (unique to the aircraft), and

the ground station can interrogate the transponder for its

transponder data capability and the aircraft's Flight ID

(registration number or other call sign). The GTX 33D

transponders also feature Extended Squitter that pro-

vides Automatic Dependent Surveillance-Broadcast

(ADS-B) capability to improve situational awareness and

flight safety. ADS-B capability automatically transmits

position, velocity, and heading information to other air-

craft and ground stations to provide surveillance of air-

to-air traffic and aircraft in remote areas not currently

covered by radar.

N. Weather Avoidance Radar

The Garmin GWX 70 is a solid state radar with 40 watts

of transmit power and Altitude Compensated Tilt (ACT).

The radar supports display of different weather data on

multiple display units simultaneously. Doppler capability

is an option on the GWX 70 which adds the ability to see

frequency shifts that are caused when an object reflect-

ing the radar pulse is moving relative to the radar itself.

The addition of Doppler adds the two distinct advan-

tages of Turbulence Detection and Ground Clutter

Suppression.

O. XM Weather Receiver

The Garmin GDL 69 is a remote satellite radio receiver

that is capable of receiving XM Weather which is dis-

played on the PFDs and/or MFD. The receiver operates

in the S-band frequency range and provides a continu-

ous downlink capability at any altitude throughout North

America. Optionally, XM Radio Audio can be received

through this unit.

P. DME

A single Collins DME-4000 provides the ability to moni-

tor as many as three active DME stations simultaneous-

ly. This allows full time distance display of pilot-selected

VHF navaids, along with the enhancement of FMS posi-

tion determination through the use of non-displayed

DME channels. Tuning and management is accom-

plished through the GTCs.

Q. Radio Altimeter

The Collins ALT-4000 Radio Altimeter system provides

height above the terrain from 2,500 feet (762 m) to

touchdown. This information is integrated with functions

in the EFIS, TCAS, and TAWS and is presented on the

PFDs.

R. Traffic Collision Avoidance System (TCAS I)

The Garmin GTS 855 is a TCAS I system that improves

situational awareness by tracking all Mode C and S air-

craft and displaying their locations on the PFDs and/or

MFD. In addition to the display, Traffic Alerts are given

aurally through the aircraft audio system.

S. Terrain Avoidance Warning System (TAWS)

The Garmin Terrain Avoidance Warning System is a

Class B TAWS. The system provides basic terrain aware-

ness and ground proximity alerting. Terrain information is

displayed in standard colors on the MFD and gives both

audible and visual warnings as required. The terrain

database resides in the secure digital data storage cards

located in the lower port on the right hand side of each

PFD and MFD bezel. Data is independently processed

by each of the three Display Units for display either when

pilot selected or when activated by ground proximity cri-

teria.
