CESSNA SECTION 7
MODEL 208B G1000 AIRPLANE AND SYSTEMS DESCRIPTION
FLASHING BEACON LIGHT
A red flashing beacon light is installed on the top of the vertical fin as
additional anti-collision protection in flight and for recognition during
ground operation. The light is visible through 360°. The flashing beacon
light circuit is protected by a pull-off type circuit breaker, labeled
BEACON LIGHT, on the left sidewall switch and circuit breaker panel.
WARNING
The flashing beacon should not be used when
flying through clouds or overcast; the flashing light
reflected from water droplets or particles in the
atmosphere, particularly at night, can cause
disorientation or vertigo.
COURTESY LIGHTS
Two courtesy lights are installed, one under each wing. The lights
illuminate the area outside of the airplane adjacent to the crew entry
doors. The lights operate in conjunction with the cabin lights and are
controlled by the cabin light switches as described in the Cabin Lights
paragraph in this section.
INTERIOR LIGHTING
Instrument and control panel lighting is provided by integral, flood and
post lights. Six lighting control knobs are grouped together on the lower
part of the instrument panel to the left of the control pedestal. These
controls vary the intensity of the lighting for the instrument panel,
pedestal, overhead panel, left sidewall panel, LED panels, Garmin
displays, and internally lit instruments. The following paragraphs
describe the function of these controls. The circuits for these lights are
protected by two pull-off type circuit breakers, labeled AVN/FLOOD
LIGHT and INST LIGHT, on the left sidewall switch and circuit breaker
panel. Other miscellaneous lighting provided or available includes
control wheel map lights, cabin lights, passenger reading lights, and a
no smoking/seat belt sign. Discussion of these lights and their controls
is also included in the following paragraphs.
GARMIN DISPLAYS, OPTIONAL ADF, AND HF DISPLAYS (if
installed)
The knob labeled AVIONICS varies the intensity of the Garmin and
optional displays (if installed). Clockwise rotation of the knob increases
display brightness and counterclockwise rotation decreases brightness.
The displays cannot be dimmed to full dark. Rotating this knob
counterclockwise past the dimmest setting will place the displays in
photosensitive mode.
