*NOTE:
This manual refers to the EFIS, display unit and screen; although it may seem
like these are all interchangeable terms, it is important to note that they all refer to different
aspects of the Sport SX stem:
•
EFIS:
Electronic Flight Instrumentation System. This refers to the Sport SX system
as a whole; it includes the display unit, peripheral devices and the components
that connect them together (such as wiring harnesses). Alternatively referred to as
“the system.”
•
Display Unit:
This is the centerpiece of the EFIS. It is made up of the electronic
components that connect to the peripheral devices and the physical elements that
the pilot uses to interact with the system. It takes the data from the peripheral
devices, processes it and then displays a human-readable version of that data on
its screen for the pilot to use. Abbreviated and referred to as “DU;” may also be
referred
to by model name, “Sport SX.”
•
Screen:
This is the physical screen of the Display Unit; it’s what all the data from
the system is displayed on for the pilot’s use.
