Standard System Line Replaceable Units

This guide covers the operation of the GDU 620 display as integrated in the
G500/G600 system. The G500/G600 Avionics Display System is an avionics
suite designed to replace the traditional flight instrument cluster. The system
combines primary flight instrumentation, navigational information, and a moving
map all displayed on dual color screens. The G500/G600 system is composed
of sub-units or Line Replaceable Units (LRUs). LRUs have a modular design and
can be installed directly behind the instrument panel or in a separate avionics
bay if desired. This design greatly eases troubleshooting and maintenance of the
G500/G600 system. A failure or problem can be isolated to a particular LRU,
which can be replaced quickly and easily. Each LRU has a particular function, or
set of functions, that contributes to the system' s operation.
