EMERGENCY AND MALFUNCTION PROCEDURES These procedures supersede those presented as markings or placards, or documented in the aircraft's FAA approved Rotorcraft Flight Manual as a result of the installation of the G500H system. All other emergency procedures remain in effect. 3.1 Emergency Procedures 3.1.1 Electrical Power Failur In the event of a total loss of electrical power, the G500H system will cease to operate: · Utilize standby instruments and visual references for aircraft control 3.2 Malfunction Indications and Procedures 3.2.1 Primary Flight Display Malfunction Primary flight information (Heading, Altitude or Airspeed) on the PFD not available or invalid: - · Utilize standby instruments and visual references for aircraft control 3.2.2 AHRS Failure A failure of the Attitude and Heading Reference System (AHRS) is indicated by a removal of the sky/ground presentation, a red X over the attitude indicator, and a yellow "ATTITUDE FAIL" shown on the PFD. A heading failure will also be indicated. - - Utilize visual references for aircraft control GPS Track – Utilize for heading if available 190-01190-12 Rev. 1 Page 9 of 27 FAA APPROVED DATE: JAN 05 2012 GARMIN Ltd. or its Subsidiaries, c/o Garmin International 1200 E 151st Street Olathe KS 66062 USA ROTORCRAFT FLIGHT MANUAL SUPPLEMENT STC SR02206SE GARMIN G500H Robinson R44 3.2.3 Heading Failure A magnetometer failure is indicated by a HDG with a red X over it just to the left of the heading display. If the GDU 620 is still receiving valid GPS ground track from the GNS navigator, the heading will be replaced with GPS ground track in magenta. The aircraft can be flown by reference to GPS ground track instead of heading. - GPS Track – Utilize for heading if available A complete Heading Failure (magnetometer and GPS ground track failure) is indicated by the digital heading presentation being replaced with a red X and the compass rose digits being removed. The course pointer will indicate straight up and operate much like a traditional CDI, with the Omni-Bearing Selector being adjusted by the PFD knob set to CRS. - Utilize standby compass. 3.2.4 Air Data Computer (ADC) Failure Complete loss of the Air Data Computer is indicated by a red X over the airspeed, altimeter, vertical speed, TAS and OAT displays. Some derived functions, such as true airspeed and wind calculations, will also be lost. - Utilize standby instruments and visual references. 3.2.5 Navigation If navigation information on the PFD/MFD (HSI, Bearing Pointers, WPT bearing and distance information, or Moving Map Data) is not available or appears invalid: - Select an alternate data source (via CDI key or 1-2 key) - Utilize the data directly from the navigation equipment as required. If GPS position information from the GPS WAAS navigator is not valid, the own-ship icon on the MFD is removed and "NO GPS POSITION" text is overlaid on the MFD moving map. The system will annunciate a loss of integrity, "LOI" on the HSI. The LOI annunciation will be colored yellow and the HSI needle will flag. · Press the CDI or 1-2 soft key to select an alternate navigation source 190-01190-12 Rev. 1 FAA APPROVED DATE: JAN 05 2012 Page 10 of 27 GARMIN Ltd. or its Subsidiaries, c/o Garmin International 1200 E 151st Street Olathe KS 66062 USA ROTORCRAFT FLIGHT MANUAL SUPPLEMENT STC SR02206SE GARMIN G500H Robinson R44 3.2.6 Warnings, Cautions, and Advisory Annunciations The following tables show the color and significance of the warning, caution, and advisory messages which may appear on the G500H displays.
