INTERFACE DESCRIPTION Section 1: Interface Description This section provides information on the following aspects of the G1000 VHF NAV/COM interface: • • • • • • • 1.1 OVERVIEW On both the PFD and the MFD, the G1000 VHF NAV/ COM interface occupies the top portion of the panel. As shown in Figure 1-1, the NAV-related controls, windows and fields are located on the left side, whereas the COMrelated controls, windows and fields are located on the right side.
INTERFACE DESCRIPTION 1.2 WINDOWS AND FIELDS 1.3 FREQUENCY STATUS On both the PFD and the MFD, the NAV and COM Frequency windows are located at the top of the display on either side of the Navigation Status bar. Frequencies on the VHF NAV/COM interface can either be standby, active or selected. • The NAV Frequency window is displayed to the left of the Navigation Status bar. • The COM Frequency window is displayed to the right of the Navigation Status bar.
OPERATION – COM 1.4 COLOR CODE 1.6 FREQUENCY TOGGLE ARROW Frequencies located in the active field are displayed in either green or white. A Frequency Toggle Arrow appears between the two frequencies of the radio sub-window on which the frequency tuning box is located. Pressing the dual COM or NAV knob toggles both the frequency tuning box and the Frequency Toggle Arrow between the radios. • An active frequency that is displayed in green indicates that the corresponding radio is selected (i.e., in use).
OPERATION – COM 1.8 CONTROLS The NAV Frequency window is controlled by knobs and keys located to the left side of the display, while the COM Frequency window is controlled by knobs and keys located to the right side of the display. The controls associated with the COM window are the following ones: • A VOL/PUSH SQ knob – Turn to adjust the COM radio volume level. – Press to turn squelch ON and OFF. • A Frequency Toggle key – Press to toggle the COM frequencies between the active and standby fields.
OPERATION – COM Section 2: COM Frequency Window 2.1 OVERVIEW The G1000 COM radios operate in the aviation frequency band of 118.000 to 136.990 MHz with either 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz channel spacing. ! NOTE: COM channel spacing can be configured through the MFD, in the System Setup Page of the AUX Page group.
OPERATION – NAV 2.5 MANUALLY TUNING A COM FREQUENCY 2.7 SELECTING COM RADIOS COM frequency manual tuning is performed by using the dual COM knob. • The MHz (left) portion of the frequency can be tuned by turning the large COM knob. • The kHz (right) portion of the frequency can be tuned by turning the small COM knob. To be selected, a COM frequency must be placed in the active field and the corresponding COM radio must be selected on the GMA 1347 audio panel.
OPERATION – NAV ! 2.8 RADIO STATUS When a microphone is keyed, a white TX indication appears between the active COM frequency and the standby COM frequency to indicate that a transmission is in progress. The TX indication disappears once COM transmission is completed. When a COM signal is received, a white RX indication appears to the right of the active COM frequency to indicate that a COM signal reception is in progress. The RX indication disappears once COM signal reception is over.

OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING Section 3: NAV Frequency Window 3.1 OVERVIEW The G1000 NAV radios operate in the aviation frequency band of 108.00 to 117.95 MHz, with 50 kHz channel spacing.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING ! 3.4 SWITCHING THE TUNING BOX BETWEEN NAV RADIOS Pressing the dual NAV knob toggles the frequency tuning box between the NAV1 and NAV2 sub-windows. NOTE: Only when tuning frequencies manually can the standby frequency field for a NAV radio be tuned to the same frequency as that located in the active field for the same NAV radio. 3.6 TOGGLING NAV FREQUENCIES Pushing the NAV knob switches the tuning box from one NAV radio to the other.
OPERATION – NAV 3.7 SELECTING A NAV RADIO To be selected, a NAV frequency must be placed in the active field and the corresponding NAV radio must be displayed on the HSI. When selected, the active NAV frequency of the selected NAV radio is displayed in green. NAV radio selection is performed via the CDI softkey. The desired NAV radio can be selected using the CDI softkey.

OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING Section 4: Frequency Auto-tuning 4.2 AUTO-TUNING ON THE PFD 4.1 OVERVIEW COM frequencies for the nearest airports may be viewed and automatically loaded from the Nearest Airport window on the PFD. The G1000 system offers multiple auto-tuning capabilities that help to reduce cockpit workload. The PFD allows for the auto-tuning of COM frequencies associated with the nearest airports, while the MFD provides autotuning of both COM and NAV frequencies from various pages.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING 4.3 AUTO-TUNING ON THE MFD WPT - Airport Information Page Frequencies can be automatically loaded from the following MFD pages: The Airport Information Page displays runway information and a list of frequencies pertinent to the selected airport identifier as well as departure, arrival and approach information.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING To load the desired COM frequency automatically into the COM tuning box: 1. 2. ! When the list of frequencies for the selected airport is displayed, highlight the desired frequency by turning the large FMS knob. To load the primary approach NAV frequency automatically into the NAV tuning box: 1 On the Airport Information Page, press the APR softkey to display approach information for a specific airport. 2. Press the FMS knob to activate the highlight in the window. 3.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING ! WPT - VOR Information Page The VOR Information Page displays information specific to individual VORs, including the airport that is nearest to the selected VOR. On this page, the VOR frequency for a selected VOR can be loaded automatically with the LD NAV1 or LD NAV2 softkeys. NOTE: If the MENU key is pressed when on the VOR Information Page, the ‘View Recent VOR List’ menu option is displayed for quick access to recently used VORs.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING NRST - Nearest Airports Page The Nearest Airports Page displays a list of the nearest airports as well as related runway, frequency and approach information. On this page, any frequency associated with the selected airport can be loaded into the NAV or COM Frequency window. To display the entire list of frequencies for a nearby airport and load a frequency from that list: 1.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING NRST - Nearest VOR Page The Nearest VOR Page displays a list of the nearest VORs together with related information, including the associated VOR frequency. On this page, the VOR frequency for a selected VOR can be loaded automatically in the NAV window with the LD NAV1 or LD NAV2 softkeys. To load a VOR frequency automatically in the NAV window: 1. On the Nearest VOR Page, press the FMS knob to activate the Nearest VOR window. 2.
OPERATION – AUTO-TUNING NRST - Nearest Frequencies Page The Nearest Frequencies Page displays a list of nearest ARTCC, FSS and WX frequencies.
