All rows must PASS in order to use the AML-STC as the certification basis for the EXP5000 installation.
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 2.5.3 Electrical Load Analysis Perform an electrical load analysis to verify that the aircraft complies with 14 CFR 23.1351(a). This can be accomplished by adding the loads in Table 11 to the aircraft’s total electrical load for each affected bus.
Avidyne recommends that you install the PFD with the MFD (if equipped) uninstalled to provide better access. Install the pitot and static lines after the PFD has been installed into the panel to avoid kinking the hoses.
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 2.6.2 Mechanical Installation 2.6.2.1 Location and Viewing Angle The PFD is designed to be panel-mounted and held in place by four captive 10-32 screws. A standard 1/4” wide slotted screwdriver is required. Install each screw with 30 +/− 0.5in-lb. of torque. Locate the PFD in the panel so that the pilot can easily reach all knobs and controls.
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 2.6.2.4 Pitot-Static Interface The PFD connects directly to the aircraft pitot-static system. Reference drawing D34-1147.Use the following pressure connectors: Quantity Part Number Description Supplier PMC1703 3/16” tube ID, barb style, quick clip, Acetal Colder Products The Pitot (Pt) and Static (Ps) connections on the PFD are marked accordingly.

Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 3.6.1 Calibrating the IRU For Envision installations, you may need to enter the IRU pitch and roll values manually. The default value is zero degrees in pitch and roll. Ensure that the aircraft is level before checking instrument panel offset angles.
The calibration procedure is done in a known magnetically clean area at least 200 ft. from metal structures of any kind and not above areas that may have underground fuel tanks or steel rebar in the concrete ramp. Avidyne suggests using an approved compass rose for this procedure.
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 On the last heading calibration point (330°), it may take up to a minute for “Done” to display. Note: If any of the 12 calibration points display Failed rather than Done, press Redo Previous to “undo” the previous step and repeat the calibration.
Page 41
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 If you stop the calibration process (for example, by exiting the Magnetometer Calibration Page Note: or shutting off power to the PFD) before completion, you will lose the stored calibration parameters. You will need to rerun the calibration from the beginning. 10.
Installation Manual P/N 600-00141-010 REV 6 3.6.3 Calibrating the ADU If an out of tolerance condition is observed when conducting air data testing described in Part 43 Appendix E, the error may be corrected by recalibrating the ADU To calibrate the ADU: 1.
Page 43
