6.12 Enabled Features ...........................6-25 6.13 HTerrain/HTAWS System Checks (For Units with HTerrain/HTAWS Only) ......6-26 This section provides return to service procedures to be followed after removal and replacement of equipment comprising part of or interfaced to the GTN 6XX/7XX. After conducting all of the required return to service procedures in accordance with this section, the craft may be returned to service.
6.1 Maintenance Records Record the following information in the appropriate rotorcraft maintenance logs: • Version number(s) of software loaded during maintenance • Part and serial numbers of any equipment replaced • Database updates performed during maintenance • Other relevant rotorcraft maintenance information 190-01007-B1 GTN 6XX/7XX Part 27 AML STC Maintenance Manual Rev.
6.2 Return to Service Procedures 6.2.1 GTN 6XX/7XX Original GTN 6XX/7XX Re-Installed If the removed GTN is installed in its original position, no software loading or configuration setting changes are required. This does not include units that were returned for repair as their software and configuration files are deleted during the repair testing progress.
6.2.4 GMA 35 (GTN 725/750 Only) Original GMA 35 Re-Installed No return to service procedures are required. New, Repaired, or Exchanged GMA 35 Installed 1. Configure the GMA 35 in accordance with the configuration log kept with the rotorcraft permanent record. 2.
6.2.10 Flight Stream 510 Original Flight Stream 510 Re-Installed No return to service procedures are required. New, Repaired, or Exchanged Flight Stream 510 Installed Update databases as necessary, as described in Section 3.4. 190-01007-B1 GTN 6XX/7XX Part 27 AML STC Maintenance Manual Rev.
6.3 GTN Configuration and Testing This section covers the configuration and checkout procedures that must be completed when a GTN is replaced with an equivalent unit. The steps provided in this section are only applicable for replacement of an equivalent GTN unit (i.e., 750 for 750, 625 for 625, etc.). If wiring updates are needed, or the configuration module is being replaced simultaneously, refer to GTN 6XX/7XX Part 27 AML STC Installation Manual for installation instructions.
6.3.3 Signal Acquisition Check NOTE All other avionics should be turned off at the start of this test, with the GTN powered on in Normal mode. After replacement, the initial acquisition of position can take up to 20 minutes. Subsequent acquisitions will not take as long. NOTE For best results, this check should be performed outdoors away from large buildings or objects that could obstruct the GPS antenna.
COM receiver. In late 2013, Garmin changed the GTN COM radio factory calibration process to allow the level at which the auto squelch opens or closes to be set at a more sensitive level. The COM RX squelch range (0-100) was remapped, as shown in Table 6-1.
Table 6-2 COM Carrier Squelch Selections Selection Description Basic Applies a COM carrier squelch value of 0 to 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz spacing. Advanced Allows the adjustment of COM carrier squelch values. Allows the adjustment of COM carrier squelch values for 25 kHz and 8.33 kHz Spacing spacing separately.
6.4 GMA 35 Configuration and Testing The following steps must be performed when replacing a GMA 35 Audio Panel. 1. Load GMA 35 software. Refer to Section 3.2.2. 2. Configure audio panel. Refer to Section 6.4.1. 3. Perform ground check. Refer to Section 6.4.2. 6.4.1 GMA 35 Audio Panel Configuration (GTN 7XX Only) 1.
6.4.2 GMA 35 Interface Check (GTN 7XX Only) 1. With the GTN running and the GMA 35 Audio Panel powered on, go to the home page and touch the Audio Panel key. 2. Ensure a red “X” is not displayed over the Audio Panel key. After configuring the audio panel, an in-rotorcraft checkout may be performed with a good microphone, headset, speaker, and avionics receivers.
6.4.3 Failsafe Operation Check NOTE In the following procedural steps, allow for variation in the configuration settings for the particular installation under test. NOTE A true mono headset is required for the failsafe operation check. Do not use headsets with a mono/stereo switch.
6.4.5 NAV Audio Check Ensure the GMA 35 and each installed NAV receiver is powered on. 1. Tune the NAV receiver to a local VOR station. 2. Ensure the Morse code identifier is being received over the crew headsets. 3. If the audio is not heard, verify the wiring to the audio panel. 4.
6.4.8 Music System Check (If Installed) 1. Set the intercom to the ALL mode. 2. Connect a stereo audio source to MUSIC 1 or MUSIC 2. Verify that stereo audio is heard over the pilot headset position. 3. Tune a station on COM 1. 4.
6.5 Interfaced Equipment Configuration and Checkout This manual does not cover the removal and replacement of the following interfaced equipment. However, the following procedures are required to ensure proper functionality with the interfaced equipment. Perform the following calibration procedures and interface checks after replacing any of the optionally interfaced equipment.
6.6 Navigation Indicator Configuration and Checkout 1. Perform calibration per Section 6.6.2 (if using GPS) or Section 6.6 (GTN 650/750 only) if using VOR/LOC/GS receiver. 2. Perform ground checks per Section 6.3 and the appropriate interface check. 6.6.1 Main Indicator (Analog) Configuration Page Select the Main Indicator (Analog) Configuration page from the GTN Setup page.
6.6.2 VOR/LOC/GS Configuration Page (GTN 650/750 Only) Select the VOR/LOC/GS key on the GTN Setup page. This page allows you to verify the CDI outputs from the VOR/LOC/GS receiver as well as the OBS resolver input to the VOR receiver. It also allows you to select the format for the DME tuning data.
6.6.3 Main Indicator Check (Analog Only) NOTE If the GTN is interfaced to an electronic HSI/EFIS, and the main indicator analog output is not used, this check is not required. NOTE To verify if the indicator is interfaced with the GTN on the main connector (P1001), examine the response of the indicator during the GTN self-test upon power-up.
6.6.5 Display Perform the interface check for the replaced EFIS. No additional configuration on the GTN is required when replacing a display with an equivalent unit. 6.6.5.1 EFIS Deviation Scaling for HSI/CDI Driven by GTN through ARINC 429 Data If the GTN has a serial connection to an EFIS display, proper scaling of the EFIS CDI and VDI must be verified.
6.7 Transponder 1. For remote transponders, configure transponder as described Section 6.7.1. 2. Perform interface check as described Section 6.7.2. 6.7.1 Remote Transponder Configuration NOTE If the GTN controls any transponder (GTX 32/33/327/328/330), then that transponder will boot into the same mode (Normal or Configuration) as the GTN. NOTE If the GTN is not communicating with the GTX transponder, all of the editable fields for the setup items shown in the following sections will be dashed out.
6.7.2 Transponder Interface Check If the GTN is interfaced to a GTX 32/33 remote transponder, or a GTX 327/328/330 configured as a remote transponder, the following checks must be completed: 1. With the GTN unit running in Normal mode and the transponder powered on, go to the home page and ensure there is no red “X”...
6.8.3 TIS (Garmin GTX 33/330) Interface Check If a Garmin GTX 33/330 transponder has been connected to the GTN as a TIS traffic source, the traffic interface should be verified as described in this section. 1. Select the Traffic Map from the GTN home page.
6.11.2 Flight Stream to GTN Interface Check 1. On the Garmin Pilot application, go to the Flight Plan page and create a flight plan. 2. Select the Connext icon at the top of the page. 3. Select the option to send the flight plan to the GTN. If successful, a message will be available on the GTN.
6.12 Enabled Features Refer to Section 3.3.4 for guidance on enabling features. 190-01007-B1 GTN 6XX/7XX Part 27 AML STC Maintenance Manual Rev. 4 Page 6-25...
