Garmin Synthetic Vision Technology (Svt™) (Optional) - Garmin G500 Pilot's Manual

5.7 Garmin Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT™)
(Optional)
The optional Garmin Synthetic Vision Technology (SVT™) is a visual
enhancement to the G500. SVT is displayed as a forward-looking display of
the topography immediately in front of the aircraft. SVT information is shown
on the primary flight display (PFD). The depicted imagery is derived from the
aircraft attitude, heading, GPS three-dimensional position, and a database of
terrain, obstacles, and other relevant features.
NOTE: Not all flight directors are supported with SVT enabled. Check your
AFMS to determine if your flight director is supported with SVT enabled.
The following SVT enhancements appear on the PFD:
• Flight Path Marker
• Horizon Heading Marks
• Traffic Display
• Airport Signs
• Runway Display
• Terrain Alerting
• Obstacle Alerting
• Water
• Zero-Pitch Line
