System Overview 1-1
1 System Overview
This manual assumes that the pilot is appropriately licensed, is
proficient in operation of the aircraft and its equipment, and is in
compliance with all Federal Aviation Regulations (FARs).
All images contained in this manual are for reference use only,
and are subject to change.
Avidyne strongly recommends that pilots use the IFD410 system
only under VFR conditions until completely familiar with its
operation and use.
Boxed areas marked as NOTE within this manual identify certain
situations or areas of operation having heightened safety
implications. While it is important for the operator to be familiar
with all of the information in the manual, it is essential to the safe
use of the IFD410 that pilots give careful attention to the material
contained within these NOTEs.
In order to avoid a diversion of attention from the task of safely
taxiing, pilots should avoid performing the described cockpit tasks
while the aircraft is in motion on the ground. It remains the pilot’s
duty to monitor the IFD for proper function upon activation and
during use.
Internal IFD410 data logs and the storage devices that record and
store data are property of Avidyne.
IFD410 Integrated Flight Display

1-2 System Overview
INTENDED FUNCTION
The Avidyne IFD410 is a GPS navigator whose primary function
is to conduct GPS-based navigation and instrument flying
(enroute and approach), provided it is connected to an external
CDI/HSI indicator that is installed in the required field of view as
well as a source selection annunciator.
Supplemental functions include serving as a moving-map flight
management system (FMS), and checklists along with a number
of timer and calculator types of utilities and options for weather
radar control and display and terrain alerting.
FUNCTIONAL OVERVIEW
The Avidyne IFD410 Integrated Flight Display (IFD) system
supports the following functions:
Flight Management System (FMS)
WAAS and non-WAAS GPS Navigation
Moving Map including synthetic vision view
Terrain Awareness and Forward Looking Terrain
Alerting [optional]
Weather Datalink, ADS-B and Lightning sensor
depictions
Weather Radar [optional] [Repeater for IFD5XX
interfaced to Wx RADAR]
Traffic
Electronic Checklists
Data Logging
Caution Advisory System (CAS)
Utilities (e.g. Schedulers, Timers, Calculators)
Multi-touch Touch screen Control
Multiple IFD Operations
Remote Transponder Control and Display
WiFi and Bluetooth® Communication [optional]
