1.9.3 UNIT COMMUNICATION ERROR
Communication errors can occur in systems with two G5s due to software versions
and unit ID strapping. Multiple G5s connected together should have the same
software version installed. Differing versions will be annunciated with a message in
normal mode (e.g. "Software version mismatch") and a Red-X in configuration mode.
More than one G5 strapped as the same unit (i.e. both unit 1 or both unit 2) will
be annunciated with a message (e.g. "Communication error" or "Network address
conflict") in normal mode and a Red-X in configuration mode.
1.9.4 AIR DATA TROUBLESHOOTING
Under normal operating conditions, the G5 provides the following air data
information:
• Indicated Airspeed (IAS)
• Barometric Altitude
• Vertical Speed
NOTE:
IAS information can only be displayed at speeds greater than 20 knots.
If the airspeed and/or altitude is failed and shows a Red-X condition:
1)
Inspect the pitot/static plumbing integrity.
2)
Inspect the pitot/static ports and all associated equipment.
3)
If the problem persists, replace the G5 with a known good unit.
1.9.5 ATTITUDE FAILURE TROUBLESHOOTING
To assist with troubleshooting an attitude or track failure, gather answers to the
following questions, being as specific as possible. This information may be helpful
to the installer/pilot, the avionics dealer, or to Garmin Aviation Product Support in
troubleshooting the failure.
1)
What was the nature of the failure? Was it a Red-X of only heading, only
GPS track, only pitch/roll, or a combination?
2)
If there was a Red-X of pitch or roll information, did the unit display an
alignment message (which is indicative of a reset), or a failure message
