Supports either: ■ External MLX770 Iridium Datalink Transceiver EX500 Release 4 or greater software is required to support the MLX770 Iridium Datalink Note: Transceiver. All Iridium or MLX770 references in this document assume Release 4 or greater software is installed in the EX500.
➥ Avidyne strongly recommends that you review the Pilot’s Guide before operating the MFD. The current version of the EX500/EX600 Multi-Function Display Pilot's Guide is available on the web at www.avidyne.com. The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance Note: standards.
To support the many sensor types encountered in the typical aircraft installation, the installer must configure the EX500/EX600 for the sensor type and select the correct port configuration. Table 3 lists sensor options and their associated port configurations. This data may be used when executing Maintenance Mode sensor setup utilities.

4.3 Class III Aircraft Installations ➥ When installed in a Class III aircraft, the EX500 and EX600 STCs require an independent lightning detection and display system complying with TSO-C110a to be installed and operational for flights in IMC. Additionally, an FAA-approved Flight Manual Supplement is required and must be carried aboard the aircraft during all flights.
4.5 Positioning and Mounting the EX500/EX600 Tray The unique requirements of your aircraft will determine the specifics of the installation, as shown in Figure 2. However, make sure that you install the EX500/EX600 with the following clearances: ● Leave four inches (4”) of clearance behind the tray to allow for connector clearance and permit air circulation through the EX500/EX600.
When you install the EX500/EX600 tray, ensure that the mounting tray is installed at the proper depth in the panel to allow the connectors of the EX500/EX600 to fully seat in the connectors of the mounting tray. When properly installed, the EX500/EX600 bezel will contact the protruding lip on the bottom of the tray.
28 VDC Nominal Load—2 A ● 28 VDC Maximum Load—5 A (EX500), 3 A (EX600) Ensure that the power input to the EX500/EX600 is circuit-protected in accordance with the guidelines of AC 43.13-1B, Chapter 11, Section 2. ➥ A 7.5 amp circuit breaker is recommended for use with the EX500.
AC 43.13-1B, Chapter 10, Section 2. Use the unit and installation kit materials weight as follows: ● EX500 With Quake SC: 7.2 lb. (3.3 kg)—EX500 MFD with tray and connectors ● EX500 Without Quake SC: 6.8 lb. (3.1 kg)—EX500 MFD with tray and connectors ●...
See the manufacturer’s installation manuals for guidance. If any of the alternate sources fail, you will lose heading related functionality on the EX500/ EX600. Specifically, this results in the loss of traffic and RADAR overlay capability as well as forcing North Up display of the Map Page.
P/N 600-00175-000 Rev 04 Installation Planning The EX500/EX600 can operate with both Datalink systems simultaneously. With both 2-Way Datalink and Broadcast Datalink systems installed, the MFD can provide Avidyne's unique MultiLink features, which include text messaging, flight tracking, and enhanced weather coverage.
