Card B – EFIS/EMS Setup and Calibration

Procedures:

  1. With aircraft on the ground and engine off, validate as many features and outputs as possible, and configure the EFIS as applicable for your cockpit avionics. See the following matrix for suggested test points and note results.
  2. For all readouts not possible to test on the ground with engine off, refer to Test Card 17.
