16. Turn the WSI InFlight sensor on. Verify that the Link data flag is not displayed.
2.8.4 EMI/RFI TEST
This test validates that interference does not exist between the MX20 and other systems on the aircraft. Turn
off the power to all avionics devices.
2.8.4.1 T

1. Start the aircraft engine(s) and switch to engine power, as appropriate.
2. Turn on power to the external GPS navigation source. Clear visibility to satellites is required.
3. Load a flight plan on the external GPS navigation source.
4. Test the function and/or observe for operation of each of the following if installed, or other
appropriate systems.
____ Transponder (if equipped)
____ NAV/VOR/ILS unit and tune to a local frequency (VOR/DME)
____ Any other navigation source
____ Radio Altimeter
____ DME
____ ADF
____ VHF Comm Transceiver
____ Encoding Altimeter
____ Flight Director
____ Marker Beacon Receiver
____ Weather Radar
____ Ground Proximity Warning System
____ Autopilot

____ WSI InFlight Weather Sensor. Visibility to the southern sky is required. The aircraft must
be far enough from buildings to avoid multipath effects. Note if the InFlight sensor causes
interference to other equipment. The MX20 must be turned on to see any effects on the
WSI InFlight sensor by other equipment.
____ Garmin GTX330 TIS-A Traffic Sensor. TIS-A is available only in areas with a Terminal
Approach Radar.
____ TAWS Sensor
5. Turn the power off to each of the avionics systems.

and the system under test for interference or abnormal operation.
1. Turn on power to the MX20.
2. Turn on the power to each avionics system. Observe for proper operation of the MX20 and the other
avionics systems.
