IFD-Series Touch-Screen Navigators

Where innovation meets simplicity

The Easy Choice

Avidyne’s IFD Series of touch screen navigators represent the next generation in fl ight management systems. Each provides SBAS/LPV precision navigation and are designed to meet the accuracy and integrity requirements for ADS-B as part of the NextGen airspace initiative. As direct replacements for legacy systems, the IFDs each share the same basic functionality in large and compact display formats respectively.

When it comes to panel-mounted avionics, you now have a choice and the choice is easy. Avidyne.

Direct Replacements

The IFDs are direct replacements for popular Garmin GNS Series Navigators. In most cases, the IFDs can utilize the existing tray and connectors, and are compatible with all the popular interface confi gurations, which can greatly minimize installation costs.

Hybrid Touch: Knobs & Buttons or Touch-Screen

The award-winning Page & Tab user interface eliminates nested menus, allowing you to go to any page in the system with only one or two clicks.

In addition to the dedicated knobs and buttons that many pilots prefer for frequent pilot actions, the IFDs Hybrid Touchcapability allows pilots to perform virtually all of those same functions via the touch screen interface. Additionally, the IFDs offer MultiTouch functionalities such as pinch-zoom, map panning, and graphical fl ight plan editing. This can be done with the MultiTouch screen, or knobs and buttons depending on the pilot’s phase of fl ight.

Made by Pilots for Pilots

Avidyne’s full line of IFDs were designed for ease-of-use, especially during single-pilot IFR operations. As avid and enthusiastic pilots, the people at Avidyne understand the importance of workload reduction and simplicity of operation.

Made for Each Other

Built on a dual databus architecture,

the IFD Navigators are key

components in Avidyne’s

panel-mounted avionics suite,

which also includes the AMX240

Audio Panel, AXP340 ADS-B Mode

S Transponder, and DFC90 Digital

Autopilot.

That s the reason Avidyne designed their FMS to be as user friendly as possible. Go where you need to go in two clicks or less.

Easy Flight PlanningExtensive testing and customer experience have proven that the IFD user interface reduces button pushes and knob twists required with previous navigators by 50%-75% or more. Drop-down menus are logically placed to provide easy data entry of airways, exit waypoints, destinations, and approach procedures. To make planning even easier, the IFDs can automatically create user-defi ned waypoints.

Graphical fl ight planning capability allows for easy editing of your fl ight plan with the touch of the screen. The convenient ‘rubber banding’ feature allows you to stretch any leg in the fl ight plan to easily deviate for weather or to accommodate an amendment from ATC.

FMS Preview™

Avidyne’s exclusive FMS Preview is a powerful fl ight planning feature that makes it even more intuitive to load fl ight plans by showing you a real-time graphical depiction of each proposed modifi cation in cyan prior to selection. FMS Preview makes it easy to visualize before selecting a desired waypoint, airway, hold or hold geometry, Direct-To, approach, approach transition and any other terminal procedures.

FMS Preview also allows you to view each of the available approaches graphically prior to selection. Unlike previous-generation navigators, the Avidyne IFDs allow you to quickly load any number of destination airports and multiple approaches into your fl ight plan.

5Working Well Together

The IFDs, when paired in any combination, leverage Avidyne’s Bytefl ight databus architecture for cross-communication. A Keyboard Convenience feature allows for data entry on a familiar QWERTY keyboard that automatically appears when an alpha-numeric data fi eld is highlighted, making data entry as familiar to you as your computer or smart phone.

In dual installations, the dual-databus architecture allows pilots to enter the fl ightplan on the QWERTY keyboard of one unit, while viewing the Map on the other.

GeoFill™ intelligently predicts the next waypoint entry, not based on its order in the database, but on its proximity to your current location or the previous waypoint in your fl ight plan. The IFDs autofi ll the remaining characters in the entry based upon distance from the current position, avoiding the cumbersome need to go through “bad” choices to get to the desired entry—dramatically reduces the number of pilot actions. GeoFill can reduce data entry by as much as 75%, reducing head-down time, and ultimately increasing effi ciency and safety.

Entering a Hold

You can easily enter and fl y a Hold at any waypoint, including VORs, intersections, user-defi ned waypoints, airports, etc. The FMS will default to a standard hold pattern at current heading, and all parameters are easily editable.

“Next Leg” Depiction

On the map, the current leg you are fl ying is always depicted as a solid magenta line. To give you a clear indication of your next leg, the IFDs will display a magenta & white “candy cane” line, which is especially handy during entries into a holding pattern.

holding patterns.

Communications & EnhancementsManaging Radios

Managing your radios is easy with the IFD550, 540, and 440. Frequencies can easily be entered either by rotating the dual knobs on the left, or by using the touch-screen numeric keypad. COM frequencies can also be tuned directly by touching the displayed frequencies on Info, Nearest, and Frequency List pages. You can also simultaneously tune both the active and standby frequencies, both of which can be easily monitored when coupled with Avidyne’s AMX240 Audio Panel.

The IFD’s powerful FMS automatically nominates, auto-tunes, identifi es, and monitors the NAV radio frequencies, so you may never have to tune another VOR or ILS frequency again! Should you choose to do so, manual tuning is easily completed with the pop-up numeric key pad or by simply typing the identifi er for the VOR.

Low-Fuel Alerting

When the IFD is connected to a compatible Fuel Totalizer System, the IFD will display a dashed green circle, indicating a fuel reserve of 45 minutes. A green Fuel Range Ring indicates a maximum range without reserve.

Multiple Frequency Formats & Station Readout

Communications are greatly improved with the IFDs. You can confi gure your unit(s) to have multiple standby frequencies, decoded agency identifi ers, and Rx/Tx Indicators.

The IFDs decode the active and standby frequencies based on proximity in the database and display the names of the stations in plain English, providing a handy reminder of the agency to which you will be transmitting when pressing the push-to-talk button.

Electronic Approach Charts & Airport Diagrams

The IFD5-Series includes CMax™ Approach Charts & Airport Diagrams. Utilizing Jeppesen’s Jeppview® charts subscription services, CMax provides Worldwide approach charts and a database of over 6,000 airport diagrams, most of which are geo-referenced, allowing for the display of your ownship and fl ight plan position right on the chart or airport diagram. IFD5-Series also supports optional European VFR (Bottlang) Charts for over 2,200 airports in 29 European countries.

Easy Radio Tuning

Touching any frequency in the Info list, Freq page, or Nearest page automatically transfers it into the Standby window.

7

Terrain Awareness & FLTA

All IFD systems offer Terrain Awareness capability which can be displayed over the color-contoured terrain base map for easy pilot recognition of an imminent encounter with nearby terrain.

For an even greater measure of safety, Forward Looking Terrain Alerting (FLTA) actively projects the aircraft’s fl ight track in time to determine whether a collision withterrain or obstacles is imminent. Caution Alerts are provided when a collision with terrain is projected within approximately 60 seconds, and Warning Alerts are provided for terrain projected within approximately 30 seconds.

(FLTA is optional on IFD440 and IFD410)

Synthetic Vision

IFD540 shown above in actual size features “exocentric” (in-trail) synthetic vision.

8

Avidyne’s Got You Covered

All IFDs are equipped with Avidyne’s beautiful Synthetic Vision (SVS) for improved situational awareness. SVS is fully integrated and requires no additional boxes or wires.

3D Terrain - Terrain Awareness (SVS-TA) is provided via terrain coloration, providing visual Caution-Warning Alerting System (CAS) alerts and aural alerts terrain hazard awareness and alerting.

FLTA- Forward Looking Terrain Alerting (FLTA) alerting provides an extra measure of safety by displaying a solid yellow or red impact point based on projected fl ight path in the event that a collision with terrain is projected. FLTA also provides visual CAS messaging & aural alerting.

3D Obstacles - Standard high, low and grouping symbology is used to clearly depict obstacles on the SVS display.

3D Traffi c uses standard traffi c symbology with traffi c depictions indicating relative threat level by their size and relative altitude and bearing. As traffi c draws nearer to you, the traffi c symbols grow in size on the IFD.

Airport Flags – Airfi elds are depicted with a METAR-style fl ag when in fi eld of view. With valid METAR data from your datalink, airfi eld fl ags will be color-coded to represent the ceiling and visibility, consistent with the moving map presentation.
