NOTE: During in-flight alignment of the AHRS, minimize aircraft
maneuvering. The AHRS will align with shallow banking and pitch angles
(less than 20 degrees of roll or 5 degrees of pitch). AHRS alignment may
not be possible during more aggressive maneuvers.
1.1.12 Secure Digital Cards
The G500H System uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various
types of data. For basic flight operations, SD cards are required for Terrain,
Obstacle, FliteChart, SafeTaxi, and ChartView database storage as well as
Jeppesen aviation and ChartView database updates. The Aviation Database
update card is inserted in the upper SD card slot for database updates and then
removed. Other database cards are normally located in the lower SD card slot.
ChartView is an optional feature that requires enablement by a Garmin dealer.
NOTE: Ensure the GDU 620 is powered off before inserting or removing
an SD card.
NOTE: Refer to Appendix A for instructions on updating the aviation
database.
Inserting an SD Card
1) Insert the SD card in the SD card slot (the front of the card should be flush with
the face of the display bezel).
2) To eject the card, gently press on the SD card to release the spring latch.
