Before using the G1000 Trainer and in order to use it most effectively, please review the G1000 Pilot’s Guide documentation thoroughly. G1000 TRAINER INTERFACE OVERVIEW The G1000 Trainer interface is composed of a menu bar, the G1000 Control Display Unit (CDU) bezel and the G1000 Control Display.
G1000 TRAINER OPERATION G1000 Trainer Bezel Knobs, Keys and Softkeys The G1000 Trainer bezel surrounds the control display and consists of the same knobs, keys and softkeys as those found on the G1000 system. The softkeys are located across the bottom of the display and are designed to perform various functions depending upon the control display mode and the specific page being displayed.

Double-click the G1000 Trainer shortcut located on the PC desktop (the ‘Shortcut on Desktop’ option is selected by default at installation). or 1b.

G1000 TRAINER OPERATION CONTROLLING THE G1000 TRAINER External Controls Overview The G1000 Trainer is operated via the following external controls: • External joystick, as indicated in the minimum PC system requirements. • PC mouse • Keyboard The external joystick is used to emulate pilot control inputs during flight, while the PC mouse is used to control the G1000 Trainer knobs, keys and softkeys. Keyboard shortcuts are also available to perform certain PC mouse actions (see Keyboard Shortcuts).
G1000 TRAINER OPERATION Keyboard Shortcuts A number of G1000 controls can also be activated on the G1000 Trainer, using keyboard shortcuts. The following shortcuts are available: • ‘W’ activates the power button. • ‘F1’ to ’F12’ respectively activate softkeys 1 through 12 (where softkey numbers are defined by the position of the softkey from left to right on the bezel). • ‘N’ (same as ‘F11’) displays and hides the NRST window – PFD only. • ‘Y’ (same as ‘F12’) displays and hides the ALERTS window – PFD only.
G1000 TRAINER OPERATION G1000 System Controls With the exception of the power button (button which is not present on the G1000 Control Display Unit), the controls of the G1000 Trainer work in the same manner as those found on the actual G1000 display bezel. For example, placing the mouse pointer over the Direct-to key and clicking it with the left mouse button is equivalent to pressing the key of interest.
G1000 TRAINER OPERATION Demo Mode If no external joystick is connected to the PC, the G1000 Trainer operates in Demo mode. In Demo mode, control inputs cannot be simulated in real time. However, a number of flight parameters can be configured in the Demo Mode window in order to allow flight simulation. The available configurable flight parameters are as follows (see figure below): • TRK MODE – Track mode may be set to either ‘TRK FPL’ or ‘MANUAL’. In TRK FPL (track flight plan) mode, HEADING is set automatically.
