Magnetic Field Variation Database Update The Magnetic Field Variation Database is loaded as part of the navigation database, but is copied to, and resides within each AHRS (GRS1 and GRS2). At startup, the system compares the MV DB within the navigation database to that presently residing in each AHRS (GRS1 and GRS2). When a new navigation database is loaded, the system may determine the newly loaded MV DB within the navigation database is newer than that residing in each AHRS. In this case, the system will prompt for an update. This prompt is displayed on the Touchscreen Controller (GTC), as shown in Figure B-12. Note, in this example, GRS1 is the first AHRS to indicate an update is available. In actuality, this is dependent on which AHRS is the first to report status to the system. GRS2 may be displayed before GRS1. The order is not important, only that both AHRS be updated. HAZARD AFCS ADDITIONAL FEATURES APPENDICES INDEX 190-01263-01 Rev.
