PFD4000 Primary Flight DisplayThe PFD4000 integrates all of your primary flight instruments into a single, easy-to-use, and easy-to-interpret display.
Integrated EHSIThe electronic horizontal situation indicator (EHSI) puts advanced navigation display capability in the primary field of view. Fully integrated with your VLOC/GPS, the PFD4000 provides synchronized switching as you transition from the en route phase to the approach phase of your flight. Easy-to-Fly Trend Indicators6-second trend indicators for airspeed, altitude and heading allow you to fly with higher precision and reduced workload when changing or maintaining critical airspeeds or altitudes. Integrated Autopilot FunctionsThe PFD4000 may be coupled with the autopilot for altitude preselect, vertical speed select and heading select modes without the need for external controllers. Selection bugs and digital readouts for each of these parameters are provided for concise operation. Ease of Use – An Avidyne HallmarkThe straight-forward user interface makes flying the PFD4000 a breeze, including one-button access to frequent pilot settings such as altitude/ vertical speed/ heading bugs and dedicated BARO control. Nav sources are push-button selectable for the EHSI needle, the bearing pointer, and the flight-plan moving map. The PFD4000 was designed to have a learning curve of less than five minutes. Crisp, Bright DisplayThe PFD4000’s super-bright LED-backlit XGA display provides a fully- sunlight-readable presentation of your primary flight data in a single, 8-inch diagonal high-resolution (1024x768 pixel) LCD.
A single PFD4000 fits easily as a 6-pack replacement in most popular single-engine and light twin-engine aircraft, and can be installed in dual-PFD configurations in many popular models. Cross-Compare System™In dual-PFD4000 installations, Avidyne’s unique Cross-Compare System™ (CCS) constantly monitors both ADAHRS and provides visual alerts in the unlikely event of any discrepancy. CCS also monitors the aircraft navigation systems and in the event of any inconsistency, provides the appropriate alerts.
Remote-Mounted AHR300 ADAHRSThe PFD4000 uses Avidyne’s AHR300 remote-mounted, solid-state Air Data/Attitude and Heading Reference System (ADAHRS). The compact, lightweight, AHR300 uses a 3-axis solid state gyro and accelerometer system combined with a magnetometer to replace vertical and directional gyros. The AHR300 provides roll, pitch, heading, yaw and rate data to drive the PFD4000 display with reliability far exceeding mechanical gyros. Connected to the pitot-static system, the AHR300’s integrated air data computer provides airspeed, altitude, vertical speed, and outside air temperature (OAT), and continually updates the winds aloft and true airspeed (TAS) indications on the display.
Looking to the FutureThe PFD4000 is designed to support future upgrades, including Synthetic Vision (SVS), Enhanced Vision (EVS), and Highway in the Sky (HITS) display formats. Avidyne PFD4000Overview Functionality Specifications PFD4000 Brochure PFD4000 in the News Retail Price List (PDF)
