SECTION 1SYSTEM OVERVIEW1.5 VERTICAL NAVIGATIONIn WAAS capable installations, one of two altitudesources is used by the G1000 when giving verticalnavigation guidance. WAAS GPS altitude is used whengiving guidance for a WAAS approach. Baro correctedaltitude is used when vertical guidance is given in all othersituations and in non-WAAS systems.The G1000 system can use altitude constraintsassociated with lateral waypoints to give guidance forvertical navigation. These altitudes are, depending on thespecific instance, entered by the pilot or retrieved from thepublished altitudes in the navigation database.The navigation database only contains altitudesfor procedures that call for “Cross at” altitudes. If theprocedure states “Expect to cross at,” then the altitude willnot be in the database. In this case the altitude may beentered manually.NOTE: All arrival procedure altitudes contained inthe navigation database are for turbojet aircraft only.Alter or enter altitudes as desired to comply with theATC clearance.When activating or loading an arrival or approachprocedure into an active flight plan, the VNV ‘ALT’ fieldswill be populated with any altitudes that can be retrievedfrom the navigation database.Since altitudes loaded with an arrival procedure arepublished only for turbojet aircraft, the altitudes aredisplayed as white text indicating that the altitudes aredisplayed for reference only. An arrival waypoint altitudemay be used (or “designated”) as is, or changed to adifferent altitude. An altitude is designated by pressing theFMS Knob and turning the large FMS Knob to place thecursor on the desired altitude and pressing the ENT Key orentering a different value and pressing the ENT Key. Thealtitude will now be displayed as light blue text, indicatingthat the altitude is now designated to give vertical speedand deviation guidance.Approach waypoint altitude constraints are designatedin the same way as previously described for arrivals. Thesealtitudes will also be displayed as light blue text after beingdesignated for use. Waypoint altitude constraints maybe designated up to, but not including the FAF. The FAFwill always be a “reference only” altitude and cannot bedesignated, unless the selected approach does not providevertical guidance. In this case, the FAF altitude can bedesignated.Altitudes that have been designated for use in verticalguidance may also be made “non-designated” by placing thecursor over the desired altitude and pressing the CLR Key.Other displayed altitudes may change due to re-calculationsor rendered invalid as a result of manually changing analtitude to a non-designated altitude.To help interpret the meanings of how the altitudes arepresented, keep the following points in mind:• When the altitude is displayed in light blue,the system is using that altitude (designated) todetermine vertical speed and deviation guidance.• When the altitude is displayed in white, it is not beingused by the system (non-designated) to determinethe vertical speed and deviation guidance.• An altitude displayed as small text is an altitude thatis published in the navigation database.• Altitudes displayed as a light blue subdued textcannot be used in the current vertical navigationcalculations.1-10Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Cessna Nav III190-00384-07 Rev.

For basic flight operations,SD cards are required for database storage as wellas Jeppesen aviation and ChartView database updates.The following procedures pertain to updating theG1000 system with SD cards obtained as outlined inAppendix B of the G1000 Cessna Nav III Pilot’s Guide.Jeppesen Aviation DatabaseNOTE: After the aviation database is installed,the card may be removed after loading theupdate to each LRU.Updating the Jeppesen aviation database:1) With the G1000 System OFF, insert the SD cardcontaining the aviation database update into thetop card slot of the PFD to be updated (Label ofSD card facing left).2) Turn the G1000 System ON. A prompt similar tothe following is displayed in the upper left cornerof the PFD:Figure 1-10 PFD Setup Menu Window1.7 XM RADIO - AUTOMATIC MUTINGXM Radio audio will be automatically muted when theaircraft groundspeed exceeds approximately 30 kts andthe airspeed is less than approximately 80 kts. The audiomust be manually unmuted once the aircraft is outsidethe applicable speed range. Refer to the G1000 OptionalEquipment section of the pilot’s guide.Figure 1-11 Database Update Prompt3) Press the ENT Key to start the database update.A prompt similar to the following is displayed:1-12Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Cessna Nav III190-00384-07 Rev.

Whenupdating the terrain and FliteCharts databases,an ‘in progress’ message may be seen. If thismessage is present, wait for the system to finishloading before verifying the correct databasesare initialized, then proceed to step 3.Figure 1-12 Database Update Confirmation4) After the update completes, the PFD starts innormal mode.5) Turn the G1000 System OFF and remove the SDcard.6) Repeat steps 1 through 4 for the MFD. The MFDand PFD databases are now updated. Removethe SD card when finished.7) Verify that the correct update cycle is loadedduring startup of the MFD.Garmin DatabasesSince these databases are not stored internally in theMFD or PFD, a Supplemental Data Card containing identicaldatabase versions must be kept in each display unit.NOTE: The data contained in the terrain andobstacle databases comes from governmentagencies. Garmin accurately processes andcross-validates the data, but cannot guaranteethe accuracy and completeness of the data.1) Insert one SD card in the bottom card slot ofthe MFD and one in the bottom card slot of thePFD. The SD card containing the ChartView orFliteCharts database must be inserted into thebottom slot on the MFD.Figure 1-13 Power-Up Splash Screen Window3) Acknowledge the Power-up Page agreement bypressing the ENT Key or the right most softkey.4) At the MAP – NAVIGATION MAP Page, selectthe MAP Softkey and check to make sure thatthe TOPO and TERRAIN Softkeys are available(not dimmed) and other database features arefunctioning.5) Power down the G1000.190-00384-07 Rev.

The autopilot guides the aircraft backto the descent path upon release of the CWSButton.NOTE: VNAV flight director pitch modes areavailable only in conjunction with GPS rollmodes.When a vertical profile (VNAV flight plan) is active andthe VNV Key is pressed, Vertical Path Tracking Mode isarmed in preparation for descent path capture. ‘VPTH’ (or‘/V’ when Glidepath or Glideslope Mode is concurrentlyarmed) is annunciated in white in addition to previouslyarmed modes. If applicable, the appropriate altitudecapture mode is armed for capture of the next VNAVTarget Altitude (ALTV) or the Selected Altitude (ALTS),whichever is greater.NOTE: The Selected Altitude takes precedenceover any other vertical constraints.Vertical Navigation (VNAV) flight control is availablefor enroute/terminal cruise and descent operations whenVNAV has been enabled and a VNAV flight plan (with atleast one vertical waypoint) or direct-to with a verticalconstraint has been activated. Refer to the GPS NavigationSection for more information on VNAV flight plans. Theflight director may be armed for VNAV at any time, but notarget altitudes are captured during a climb.The Command Bars provide vertical profile guidancebased on specified altitudes (entered manually or loadedfrom the database) at waypoints in the active flight planor vertical direct-to. The appropriate VNAV flight controlmodes are sequenced by the flight director to follow thepath defined by the vertical profile. Upon reaching thelast waypoint in the VNAV flight plan, the flight directortransitions to Altitude Hold Mode and cancels any armedVNAV modes.Vertical Path Tracking Mode (VPTH)Figure 6-10 Vertical Path Tracking Armed AnnunciationsPrior to descent path interception, the Selected Altitudemust be set below the current aircraft altitude by at least75 ft.

SECTION 6 – AUTOMATICFLIGHT CONTROL6.4 AUTOPILOT OPERATIONNOTE: Refer to the AFM for specific instructionsregarding emergency procedures.Cessna Nav III’s autopilot operates flight controlsurface servos to provide automatic flight control. Theautopilot controls the aircraft pitch and roll attitudesfollowing commands received from the flight director.Pitch autotrim provides trim commands to the pitch trimadapter to relieve any sustained effort required by thepitch servo.Flight ControlPitch and roll commands are provided to the servos,based on the active flight director modes. Servo motorcontrol limits the maximum servo speed and torque.The servo mounts are equipped with slip-clutches set tocertain values. This allows the servos to be overridden incase of an emergency.Pitch Axis and Pitch TrimThe autopilot pitch axis uses pitch rate to stabilize theaircraft pitch attitude during upsets and flight directormaneuvers. Flight director pitch commands are rate- andattitude-limited, combined with pitch damper control, andsent to the pitch servo motor. The pitch servo measuresthe output effort (torque) and provides this signal to thepitch trim adapter. The pitch trim servo commands themotor to reduce the average pitch servo effort.When the autopilot is not engaged, the pitch trim servomay be used to provide manual electric trim. This allowsthe aircraft to be trimmed using a control stick switchrather than the trim wheel. Manual trim commands aregenerated with the MET Switch. Trim speeds are scheduledwith airspeed to provide more consistent response.Roll AxisThe autopilot roll axis uses roll rate to stabilize aircraftroll attitude during upsets and flight director maneuvers.The flight director roll commands are rate- and attitudelimited,combined with roll damper control, and sent tothe roll servo motor.Engaging the AutopilotNOTE: Autopilot engagement/disengagement isnot equivalent to servo engagement/disengagement.Use the CWS Button to disengage thepitch and roll servos while the autopilot remainsactive.When the AP Key is pressed, the autopilot and flightdirector (if not already engaged) are activated. Engagementis indicated by a green ‘AP’ annunciation in the center ofthe AFCS Status Box. The flight director engages in Pitchand Roll Hold modes when initially activated.Autopilot EngagedFigure 6-26 Autopilot Engaged6-22Garmin G1000 Cockpit Reference Guide for the Cessna Nav III190-00384-07 Rev.

SECTION 6 – AUTOMATICFLIGHT CONTROLControl Wheel SteeringDuring autopilot operation, the aircraft may be handflownwithout disengaging the autopilot. Pressing andholding the CWS Button disengages the pitch and rollservos from the flight control surfaces and allows theaircraft to be hand-flown. At the same time, the flightdirector is synchronized to the aircraft attitude during themaneuver. The ‘AP’ annunciation is temporarily replacedby ‘CWS’ in white for the duration of CWS maneuvers.In most scenarios, releasing the CWS Button reengagesthe autopilot with a new reference. Refer to the flightdirector modes section for CWS behavior in each mode.Control Wheel SteeringThe autopilot is manually disengaged by pushing theAP DISC Switch, GA Switch, MET ARM Switch, or theAP Key on the MFD. Manual disengagement is indicatedby a five-second flashing yellow ‘AP’ annunciation and athree-second autopilot disconnect aural alert. After manualdisengagement, the autopilot disconnect aural alertmay be cancelled by pushing the MET ARM or AP DISCSwitch (AP DISC Switch also cancels the flashing ‘AP’ annunciation).Autopilot Manually DisengagedFigure 6-29 Manual Autopilot DisengagementFigure 6-27 CWS AnnunciationDisengaging the AutopilotAutomatic disengagement occurs due to:• System failure• Inability to compute default flight director modes(FD also disengages automatically)• Invalid sensor data• Stall warningAutomatic autopilot disengagement is indicated bya flashing red ‘AP’ annunciation and by the autopilotdisconnect aural alert, which continue until acknowledgedby pushing the AP DISC or MET Switch.Autopilot Automatically DisengagedFigure 6-28 Automatic Autopilot Disengagement190-00384-07 Rev.

SECTION 7 – NAVIGATIONIn this missed approach procedure, the fiximmediately following the MAP (in this case‘6368FT’) is not part of the published procedure.It is simply a fix that defines a leg which guidesthe aircraft along the runway centerline untilthe required altitude to make the first turn onthe missed approach is exceeded. In this case,if the aircraft altitude is below the specifiedaltitude (6,368 feet) after crossing the MAP, adirect-to will be established to this fix until analtitude of 6,368 feet reached. After reaching6,368 feet, a direct-to will be established tothe published fix (in this case MOGAL). If theaircraft altitude is above the specified altitudeafter crossing the MAP, a direct-to will beestablished to the published fix (MOGAL) tobegin the missed approach procedure. Thealtitude constraint value defaults to 400 feetAGL when the fix is not part of the publishedprocedure.In some missed approach procedures thisaltitude fix may be part of the publishedprocedure. For example, the procedure dictatesa climb to 5,500 feet, then turn left andproceed to the Missed Approach Hold Point(MAHP). In this case, the altitude fix would belabeled ‘5500FT’. Again, if the aircraft altitudeis lower than this prescribed altitude, a direct-towill be established to this fix when the missedapproach procedure is activated.25) Upon reaching the MAP, it is decided to executea missed approach. Automatic waypointsequencing is suspended past the MAP. Pressthe SUSP Softkey on the PFD to resume automaticwaypoint sequencing through the missedapproach procedure.A direct-to is initiated to MOGAL, which is theMissed Approach Hold Point (MAHP) as seen inFigure 7-48.

SECTION 11 – ABNORMALOPERATIONSECTION 11: ABNORMALOPERATION11.1 REVERSIONARY MODEShould a system detected failure occur in either display,the G1000 automatically enters Reversionary Mode. InReversionary Mode, critical flight instrumentation iscombined with engine instrumentation on the remainingdisplay. Minimal navigation capability is available on theReversionary Mode display.Reversionary display mode can also be manuallyactivated by the pilot if the system fails to detect a displayproblem. The Reversionary Mode is activated manuallyby pressing the red DISPLAY BACKUP Button on thebottom of the audio panel (GMA 1347). Pressing the redDISPLAY BACKUP Button again deactivates ReversionaryMode.NOTE: The Cessna Pilot’s Operating Handbook(POH) always takes precedence over theinformation found in this section.Normal PFD DisplayNormal MFD DisplayMFD in Reversionary ModeFigure 11-1 G1000 Reversionary Mode: Failed PFD190-00384-07 Rev.

A

SECTION 11 – ABNORMALOPERATION11.6 DEAD RECKONINGWhile in Enroute or Oceanic phase of flight, if theG1000 detects an invalid GPS solution or is unable tocalculate a GPS position, the system will automaticallyrevert to Dead Reckoning (DR) Mode. In DR Mode,the G1000 uses its last-known position combined withcontinuously updated airspeed and heading data (whenavailable) to calculate and display the aircraft’s currentestimated position.through DR while there is no heading and/or airspeeddata available should not be used for navigation.DR Mode is inherently less accurate than thestandard GPS/WAAS Mode due to the lack of satellitemeasurements needed to determine a position. Changesin wind speed and/or wind direction will compound therelative inaccuracy of DR Mode. Because of this degradedaccuracy, the crew must maintain position awareness usingother navigation equipment until GPS-derived positiondata is restored.NOTE: Dead Reckoning Mode will only function inEnroute (ENR) or Oceanic (OCN) phase of flight.In all other phases, an invalid GPS solution willproduce a ‘NO GPS POSITION’ annunciation onthe map and the G1000 will stop navigating inGPS Mode.DR Mode is indicated on the G1000 by the appearanceof the letters ‘DR’ superimposed in yellow over the ‘ownaircraft’ symbol as shown in Figure 11-4. In addition, ‘DR’will be prominently displayed, also in yellow, on the HSIslightly above and to the right of the aircraft symbol on theCDI as shown in Figure 11-4. Also, the CDI deviation baris removed from the display. Lastly, but at the same time, a‘GPS NAV LOST’ alert message will appear on the PFD.Normal navigation using GPS/WAAS source datawill resume automatically once a valid GPS solution isrestored.It is important to note that estimated navigationdata supplied by the G1000 in DR Mode may becomeincreasingly unreliable and must not be used as a solemeans of navigation. If while in DR Mode airspeed and/orheading data is also lost or not available, the DR functionmay not be capable of accurately tracking your estimatedposition and, consequently, the system may display a paththat is different than the actual movement of the aircraft.Estimated position information displayed by the G1000CDI ‘DR’ Indication on PFDSymbolic Aircraft(Map pages and Inset Map)Figure 11-4 Dead Reckoning IndicationsAs a result of operating in DR Mode, all GPS-deriveddata will be computed based upon an estimated positionand will be displayed as yellow text on the display todenote degraded navigation source information.

Text color isbased on alert levels described later in the Alert LevelsDefinitions section. The Annunciation Windowis located to the right of the Altimeter and VerticalSpeed Indicator on the display. All Cessna Nav IIIannunciations can be displayed simultaneously inthe Annunciation Window. A white horizontal lineseparates annunciations that are acknowledged fromannunciations that are not yet acknowledged. Higherpriority annunciations are displayed towards the topof the window. Lower priority annunciations aredisplayed towards the bottom of the window.• Alerts Window: The Alerts Window displays alerttext messages. Up to 64 prioritized alert messagescan be displayed in the Alerts Window. Pressingthe ALERTS Softkey displays the Alerts Window.Pressing the ALERTS Softkey a second time removesthe Alerts Window from the display. When the AlertsWindow is displayed, the pilot can use the large FMSKnob to scroll through the alert message list.• Softkey Annunciation: During certain alerts,the ALERTS Softkey may appear as a flashingannunciation to accompany an alert. The ALERTSSoftkey assumes a new label consistent with thealert level (WARNING, CAUTION, or ADVISORY).By pressing the softkey annunciation, the pilotacknowledges awareness of the alert. The softkeythen returns to the previous ALERTS label. If alertsare still present, the ALERTS label will be displayedin inverse video (white background with black text).The pilot can press the ALERTS Softkey a secondtime to view alert text messages.• System Annunciations: Typically, a large red ‘X’appears in windows when a failure is detected in theLRU providing the information to the window.

SECTION 12 – ANNUNCIATIONS& ALERTS12.7 G1000 SYSTEM ANNUNCIATIONSWhen an LRU or an LRU function fails, a large red ‘X’ is typically displayed on areas associated with the failed data.Refer to the POH for additional information regarding pilot responses to these annunciations.NOTE: Upon power-up of the G1000 system, certain boxes remain invalid as G1000 equipment begins toinitialize. All boxes should be operational within one minute of power-up. Should any box continue to remainflagged, the G1000 system should be serviced by a Garmin-authorized repair facility.System AnnunciationCommentAttitude and Heading Reference System is aligning.Display system is not receiving attitude information from the AHRS.Indicates a configuration module failure.This annunciation will only be seen when the autopilot is engaged. Theannunciation indicates an AHRS monitor has detected an abnormalflight parameter, possibly caused by strong turbulence. In this case, thesituation should correct itself within a few seconds. If there is an actualfailure, a red “X” will soon appear over the Attitude Indicator.Display system is not receiving airspeed input from air data computer.190-00384-07 Rev.
