Page 6 The GPS system is subject to changes which could affect the accuracy and performance of all GPS equipment. Portions of the Garmin G1000 utilize GPS as a precision electronic NAVigation AID (NAVAID). Therefore, as with all NAVAIDs, information presented by the G1000 can be misused or misinterpreted and, therefore, become unsafe.

Figure 1-1 shows interactions between the LRUs. Additional/optional equipment are shown in Figure 1-2. The Diamond DA40/40F may be optionally equipped with a GFC 700 Automated Flight Control System (AFCS), providing flight director (FD), autopilot (AP), and manual electric trim (MET) functions of the G1000 System.
Page 14: Line Replaceable Units
• GIA 63/63W (2) – The Integrated Avionics Units (IAU) function as the main communications hub, linking all LRUs with the PFD. Each IAU contains a GPS receiver, a very high frequency (VHF) communication/ navigation/glideslope (COM/NAV/GS) receiver, and system integration microprocessors, and is paired with the on-side display via an HSDB connection.
Page 15 (including accelerometers and rate sensors) and interfaces with the Magnetometer to obtain magnetic field information, with the ADC to obtain air data, and with both IAUs to obtain GPS information.

Page 16 • GSA 81 and GSM 85 – The GSA 81 servos are used for automatic control of pitch, pitch trim, and roll. These units interface with each IAU. The GSM 85 servo mounts are responsible for transferring the output torque of the servo actuators to the mechanical flight-control surface linkages.

Page 26: Gps Receiver Operation
GPS receivers are providing accurate data to the PFD. When both GPS receivers are providing accurate data, the GPS receiver producing the better solution is used by the system. Information collected by the specified receiver (GPS1 for the #1 IAU or GPS2 for the #2 IAU) may be viewed on the AUX - GPS Status Page.
Page 27 For WAAS-enabled systems, GPS sensor annunciations are most often seen after system power-up when one GPS receiver has acquired satellites before the other or one of the GPS receivers has not yet acquired a WAAS signal. While the aircraft is on the ground, the WAAS signal may be blocked by obstructions causing one GPS receiver to have difficulty acquiring a good signal.
Page 28 SYSTEM OVERVIEW RAIM PREDICTION Receiver Autonomous Integrity Monitoring (RAIM) is a GPS receiver function that performs a consistency check on all tracked satellites. RAIM ensures that the available satellite geometry allows the receiver to calculate a position within a specified RAIM protection limit (2.0 nautical miles for oceanic and enroute, 1.0 nm for terminal, and 0.3 nm for non-precision approaches).
Page 29 The GPS Status Page can be helpful in troubleshooting weak (or missing) signal levels due to poor satellite coverage or installation problems. As the GPS receiver locks onto satellites, a signal strength bar is displayed for each satellite in view, with the appropriate satellite PRN number (01-32 or 120-138 for WAAS) below each bar.
