The FlightMax EX5000 Multi-Function Displays (MFD) provide a pictorial view of
your flight situation based on input from your GPS navigator. It utilizes on-board
database information for mapping off-route navigation data such as nearby airports,
VORs, NDBs, special-use and restricted airspace, etc., as well as terrain, interstate
highways, bodies of water, and obstacles.
The EX5000 uses RS-232 to interface to external sensors such as GPS, Goodrich
WX-500 Stormscope Sensor, and Ryan TCAD Traffic Sensor, if installed. The
EX5000 additionally offers ARINC 429 data bus capability. When interfaced via
ARINC 429 to a Garmin GNS 430/420-series GPS, the EX5000 will display the curved
paths associated with instrument approaches including DME arcs, holds, and
procedure turns. The EX5000 will also provide traffic display capability when
interfaced with the Goodrich Skywatch
®
traffic sensor, if installed.
