Section 3. NORMAL PROCEDURES
Refer to the 500W Series unit Pilot's Guide defined in paragraph 1.1 of this document for
normal operating procedures. This includes all GPS operations, VHF COM and NA V,
and Multi-Function Display information.
Although intuitive and user friendly the 500W Series unit requires a reasonable degree of
familiarity to enable unit operations without becoming too engrossed at the expense of
basic see.and-avoid. Pilot workload will be higher for pilots with limited familiarity in
using the unit. Garmin provides training tools with the Pilot's Guide and PC based
simulator. Pilots should take full advantage of these training tools to enhance system
familiarization.
3.1 Approaches with Vertical Guidance
The 500W Series unit supports three types ofGPS approaches with vertical guidance:
LPV approaches, LNA VNNA V (annunciated as LNNAV) approaches, and LNA V
approaches with advisory vertical guidance (annunciated as LNA V+V). For LNA V
approaches with advisory vertical guidance, the 500W Series will annunciate LNA V+V
indicating vertical guidance is available. LNA V minimums will be controlling in this
case.
3.2 WFDE Prediction Program
The Gannin WAAS Fault Detection and Exclusion (WFDE) Prediction Program is
required for Remote/Oceanic operations. The Prediction Program should be used in
conjunction with the Garntin 400W/500W Simulator. After entering the intended route
of flight in the Simulator flight plan the pilot selects the FOE Prediction Program under
the Options menu of the Simulator program.
For detailed information refer to the WFDE prediction program instructions
(190-00643-01). The availability ofFDE is only required for Oceanic or Remote
operations.
