MULTIFUNCTION DISPLAY
SYSTEM
The multifunction display (MFD) system con-
sists of the following components (Figure 16-50):
• MFD symbol generator
• MFD controller
• Display modes
The MFD system provides backup capabilities,
flight plan information, weather radar dis-
plays, and checklist functions. The MFD func-
tions primarily as a backup to the EFIS symbol
generators or the EHSI displays. If an EFIS SG
fails, selection of the SG position on the MFD
controller allows the MFD SG to continue op-

eration of the failed display. The EFIS con-
troller on that side will continue to operate the
EFIS display formats.
The MFD also functions as a backup EHSI if
a display tube fails. If, for example, the top
(EADI) display fails, the remaining lower dis-
play can be changed either to a composite for-
mat combining the essential features of both
indicators or to an EADI with the EHSI for-
mat displayed on the center MFD.
The weather radar is an X-band receiver/trans-
mitter/antenna that is EFIS compatible. The
weather radar controller is used in conjunction
with the MFD and EHSI to select the various
radar functions.
