    OEM I nstallations If your EFIS-D100 is installed by an OEM distributor, you may find that you are unable to access some menus and settings. Some Dynon distributors customize various areas of the EFIS-D100 firmware to maintain a consistent pilot experience and minimize integration issues across a large number of installations.

    About this Guide This guide serves two purposes. The first is to help you configure and get acquainted with the EFIS-D100‘s many functions. The second is to give you quick access to vital information. For detailed technical and installation information, please refer to the EFIS-D100 Installation Guide.
  • Page 9 Any text following this icon describes functionality that is possible when multiple Dynon Avionics products are networked together via the Dynon Smart Avionics Bus (DSAB).

    2. PRODUCT OVERVI EW This section provides a general overview of the various parts of the EFIS-D100 as well as a theory of operation. The information in this section serves as a reference only and helps familiarize you with the inner workings of the unit. It should not be used for diagnostic or reparative work.
  • Page 11 For more information on DSAB-specific alerts, refer to the DSAB Alerts section on page 8-3. OUTPUTS The EFIS-D100 has an output to drive an external customer-supplied audible device for AOA (if installed) and altitude alerts. A serial output is also provided for serial altitude encoder data. An optional Serial-to-Gray Code Converter is available for connection to Mode C Gray Code transponders.

When an HS34 is configured to control the EFIS-D100, its VALUE knob changes values when in various EFIS menus. When no menus are displayed the HS34 can adjust the barometer or altitude bug. The HS34’s HEADING and COURSE knobs affect their respective parameters on the HSI page.
  • Page 13 GPS source acts as a substitute. When in this mode the instrument continues to provide accurate attitude. *If a GPS is present upon the loss of airspeed, the EFIS-D100 uses the GPS ground speed in its attitude calculation. When in this mode, a magenta GPS ASSIST message is displayed over the horizon and the ground speed is displayed below the IAS indicator (as shown at right).
  • Page 14 COMPASS ACCURACY AND AUTOPILOT PERFORMANCE If you are using your EFIS-D100 to control Dynon’s Autopilot, it is critical that the magnetic heading be as accurate as possible for comfortable operation in HDG mode and radio-based VOR/NAV mode. The aircraft’s compass must be installed correctly, calibrated, and operating well in all attitudes.

    Available Pages EFI S Main pages Available in 1/3, 2/3 and full formats The EFIS-D100 default screen rotation includes only 2/3 EFIS pages combined with the various EMS and HSI pages described below. However, you may also choose screen configurations that use 1/3 and full-screen pages.
  • Page 25 Unlike a mechanical artificial horizon, the EFIS-D100’s horizon has no roll or pitch limitation. The horizon line stays parallel to the Earth’s horizon line regardless of attitude. The parallel lines above and below the horizon line are the pitch indicator lines, with each line indicating 5 degrees of pitch.
  • Page 26 Like a conventional gyro-stabilized magnetic compass, magnetic heading reacts immediately to turn rate so that heading changes are reflected immediately. It then uses magnetometer data over the long term to ensure that it remains correct. Additionally, heading is corrected for attitude so that it is accurate as you pitch and roll.
