Foreword Sec 1 System Sec 2 PFD Sec 3 MFD Sec 4 Hazard Avoidance Features 1.2 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 Section 6 for system-specific annunciations and alerts. The G500 System is integrated with the aircraft electrical system and receives power directly from electrical busses. The GDU 620 and supporting sub-systems include both power-on and continuous built-in test features that exercise the processor, memory, external inputs, and outputs to ensure safe operation. During system initialization, test annunciations are displayed. All system annunciations should disappear typically within the first 30 seconds after power-up. Upon power-up, key annunciator lights also become momentarily illuminated on the GDU 620 display bezel. On the PFD, the AHRS begins to initialize and "AHRS ALIGN: Keep Wings Level" is displayed. The AHRS should display valid attitude and heading fields typically within the first minute after power-up. The AHRS can align itself both while taxiing and during level flight. When the MFD powers up, the splash screen displays the following information: • System version • Copyright • Land database name and version • Obstacle database name and version • Terrain database name and version • Aviation database name, version, and effective dates Current database information includes valid operating dates, cycle number, and database type. When this information has been reviewed for currency (to ensure that no databases have expired), the pilot is prompted to continue.
