Important!!
• There are significant differences
between the Aspen EFD1000
PFD / Garmin GMX 200 suite
and the G1000 or GNS430/530
avionics that CAP pilots are
accustomed to using.
• Do not assume that anything
you know about the G1000 or
GNS 430/530 will translate to
the Aspen EFD1000 and Garmin
GMX 200.

FN (Function) Key:
•“Home” state shows:
•MSG
•MAP
•IFR
•VFR
•Choose MAP
•Custom Map option
provides the greatest
flexibility to configure as
needed.

Basic setup sequence:
1. FN should show
home state – select
MAP.
2. Select Custom Map.
3. Adjust the zoom/pan
using the in/out soft
keys at the bottom of
the display.
4. Press MENU key to
activate soft-key
map configuration
options.

Menu/ENT Key activates
on-screen display of the
options available via each
of the six “soft keys” on
the right side of the GMX
200 bezel.
Options displayed are
context-sensitive – i.e.,
dependent upon the
selected map.

Options displayed through
soft keys have three
possible states:
•Blue - selected
•Gray – partially selected
•Black – not selected

Issues, Cautions, Recommendations
• Aspen EFD 1000 PFD can be extremely hard to
read due to type size and sheer volume of
information presented.
– Use range key to set flight plan display on navigation
(lower) half of PFD to a readable scale.

MER - 100607
Issues, Cautions, Recommendations
• Garmin GMX 200 is not a “native” Garmin box; do not expect it to
look or function the same way as the G1000 MFD or GNS 430/530.
• Recommended selection is “custom map,” since pilot’s ability to
configure “VFR” and “IFR” maps is limited.
• Use range to make the MFD map more readable.
• Think of FN (function) key as the “home” or “escape” key. FN
brings up the base menus; side hot keys are context sensitive.
• Take note of map orientation setting – it will not automatically match
that of the PFD. Suggest using “TRK UP” on MFD to eliminate
confusion from different map orientations on PFD and MFD.
