The baro setting on the MFD is controlled by PFD1. The baro setting will
apply to both GDC1 and GDC2 regardless of the GDC selected on the
MFD. The copilot's display can be ignored.
After completing the tests specified by § 91.411 and Part 43 Appendix E, return both the MFD
and the PFD to normal mode.
The following tests are above and beyond the requirements set forth in
Appendix E, and are required only when appendix E tests are required.

GEA SOFTWARE INSTALLATION AND TESTING

Original GEA 71 Reinstalled:
No software or configuration loading is required if the original GEA 71 is reinstalled. This does
not include units that were returned for repair as their software and configuration files are
deleted during the repair testing process.
New, Repaired or Exchange GEA 71 Installed:
If a new, repaired or exchange GEA 71 is installed; load the following files after removing the
Supplemental Database cards from the bottom slots of each display:
• GEA1 Software
•
GEA1 Configuration
Note which card was removed from the MFD so it may be identified later for reinsertion in the
MFD when software and configuration loading is complete. It contains a FliteChart® or
ChartView database which is only used by the MFD. Reinstall all the cards after the software
and configuration file loads are complete.
