SD CARD USE AND DATAbASES

The G950 System uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various types of data. For basic flight
operations, SD cards are required for database storage as well as Jeppesen navigation and ChartView database
updates.
Do not load Jeppesen navigation data (except ChartView) onto Garmin Supplemental Data
CAUTION:

power-up screen and the effective date on the AUX-SYSTEM STATUS Page being displayed in yellow.

JEPPESEN DATAbASES

The Jeppesen aviation database is updated on a 28-day cycle. The ChartView database is updated on a 14-
day cycle. If the ChartView database is not updated within 70 days of the expiration date, ChartView will no
longer function.
Both these databases are provided directly from Jeppesen. The ChartView database should be copied to the
Garmin supplied Supplemental Data Card which will reside in the bottom card slot on the MFD. The aviation
database must be installed from the Jeppesen or user supplied SD data card. Contact Jeppesen (www.jeppesen.
com) for subscription and update information.
After the aviation database is installed, the card may be removed.
NOTE:
Updating the Jeppesen aviation database:
1) With the G950 System OFF, insert the SD card containing the aviation database update into the top card slot of
the PFD to be updated (label of SD card should face left).
2) Turn the G950 System ON. A prompt similar to the following is displayed in the upper left corner of the PFD:
