The odometer and trip odometer record the total mileage traveled from the last reset; these odometers can

be reset independently. Resetting the trip odometer also resets the average trip groundspeed. Maximum

groundspeed for the period of time since the last reset is also displayed.

1.8 DISPLAY BACKLIGHTING

The G1000H display and control backlighting can be adjusted either automatically or manually.

AUTOMATIC ADJUSTMENT

The existing instrument panel dimmer bus normally controls the PFD and MFD backlighting as well as the

PFD and MFD bezels and audio panel key annunciator lighting. When the dimmer bus is not used by the

G1000H system, photocell technology automatically controls backlighting adjustments. Photocell calibration

curves are pre-conﬁgured to optimize display appearance through a broad range of cockpit lighting conditions.

MANUAL ADJUSTMENT

NOTE:

The avionics dimming knob may also be used to adjust backlighting. Refer to the POH for details.

NOTE:

In normal mode, backlighting can only be adjusted from the PFD. In reversionary mode, it can also

be adjusted from the MFD.

NOTE:

No other window can be displayed on the PFD while the PFD Setup Menu Window is displayed.

Backlighting may also be adjusted manually for all of the displays and the associated bezels. The audio panel

key backlighting is directly tied to the PFD key backlighting setting.
