Operation 

GPS/WAAS TSO-C146a Class 3 Operation: The Garmin 400W Series 
unit, when installed in accordance with STC SA01933LA-D, uses GPS 
and WAAS (within the coverage of a Space-Based Augmentation System 
complying with ICAO Annex 10) for enroute, terminal area, non-
precision approach operations (including “GPS”, “or GPS”, “RNAV”, 
“LNAV”, and “LP” approaches), and approach procedures with vertical 
guidance (including “LNAV/VNAV” and “LPV”). 
 
Navigation is accomplished using the WGS-84 (NAD-83) coordinate 
reference datum.  GPS navigation data is based upon use of only the Global 
Positioning System (GPS) operated by the United States of America.

Class II Oceanic, Remote, and other Operations: 

The Garmin 400W Series, as installed, has been found to comply with the 
requirements for GPS primary means of Class II navigation in oceanic and 
remote airspace, when used in conjunction with WAAS Garmin Prediction 
Program part number

 

006-A0154-03.  Oceanic operations are supported 

when the 400W Series unit annunciates OCN. This provides an alarm limit 
of four NMI and a mask angle of five degrees. The 400W series unit also has 
the ability to predict RAIM availability at any waypoint in the database or if 
WAAS corrections are expected to be absent or disabled. This AFMS does 
not constitute an operational approval for Oceanic or Remote area 
operations. Additional equipment installations or operational approvals may 
be required. 

a)

 

Oceanic navigation requires an additional approved long range oceanic 

and/or remote area navigation system with independent display, sensors, 
antenna, and power source. (It may be a second 400W/500W Series unit.) 

b)

 

Redundant VHF Com and VHF Nav systems may be required for other 

than U.S. 14 CFR Part 91 operations.  Check foreign regulation 
requirements as applicable. (It may be a second 400W/500W Series unit.) 

c)

 

Operations approval 

may

 be granted for the use of the 400W Series unit 

RAIM prediction function in lieu of the Prediction Program for operators 
requiring this capability. Refer to your appropriate civil aviation 
authorities for these authorizations.
