INTRODUCTION
The Challenger 300 is equipped with an electronic flight instrumentation system (EFIS). The EFIS consists of four adaptive
flight displays (AFD), grouped as a left primary flight display (PFD) and multifunction display (MFD) and a right MFD
and right PFD. The control portion of the system is made up of two display control panels (DCP), one MFD control panel,
and one reversion switch panel (RSP). A DCP on the pilot and copilot side provides configuration and selection controls
for the appropriate PFD, as well as radio controls for the MFD. The reversion panel provides the means for selecting a com-
pressed PFD format on either AFD, as well as selecting reversion to cross-side attitude/heading data, air data, and radio
tune control.
The adaptive flight displays provide airspeed, altitude, attitude, heading, navigation, and system information. Each pilot is
presented with this information on a primary flight display (PFD) and a multifunction display (MFD).
A major interface with the EFIS is the integrated avionics processor system (IAPS), data concentrator units (DCU) and the
remote data concentrators (RDC). The IAPS is the focal point of information flow for the entire aircraft. In addition to per-
forming the integration function required to connect the various aircraft systems, the IAPS contains flight guidance com-
puter, flight management computer (FMC), and maintenance diagnostic computer (MDC) modules. Other systems provide
information to the EFIS for display as conventional flight instruments. This includes the air data system and the attitude
and heading reference system.
Control for the EFIS display modes are provided by switches and push buttons located on the glareshield, the center console
and the side instrument panels.

COMPONENTS AND OPERATION
ATTITUDE DISPLAY
The aircraft attitude indication on the primary flight display (PFD) provides pitch, roll, and yaw information supplied by
the AHRS.
AIRCRAFT SYMBOL
The aircraft symbol is a stationary representation of the aircraft and is represented by a black symbol with a white outline.
Two small white rectangular wing symbols are shown to the left and right of the aircraft symbol. The aircraft symbol hor-
izontal wings can be used with the cross pointers or the triangle shape used with the V-bars flight director.
HORIZON LINE
The horizon line is the midpoint indication of aircraft attitude. With zero degrees of pitch and roll, the white horizontal line
touches the apex of the aircraft symbol and passes through the center of the aircraft wing symbol.
SKY/GROUND DISPLAY
This blue-and-brown image provides a visual representation of the actual position of the sky and ground with respect to the
aircraft.
PITCH TAPE AND CHEVRONS
The pitch tape is fixed on the attitude sphere and moves with the horizon line. The tape has wide line markings every 10
degrees, medium line markings every 5 degrees and small line markings every 2.5 degrees.
Red warning chevrons appear during maneuvers of excessive pitch attitude pointing toward the zero degree position.

ROLL SCALE AND POINTER
At the top of the blue display is a roll scale and pointer. The scale covers ± 60 degrees from level attitude.
The scale is marked as follows:
- Small triangle at 0 degrees of bank angle
- Large tick marks at ± 30 and ± 60 degrees
- Small tick marks at ± 10 and ± 20 degrees
- Small triangle at ± 45 degrees
The roll pointer moves in reference to the center of the aircraft symbol and indicates aircraft roll angle.

SLIP/SKID INDICATOR
The slip/skid indicator is a small rectangle located below the roll pointer. The slip/skid indicator is driven by lateral accel-
eration. It turns with the roll pointer and moves laterally with respect to the base of the roll pointer.
One brick width deflection of the rectangle is equivalent to a displacement of one ball width on a conventional slip/skid
indicator.
VERTICAL DEVIATION DISPLAY
The vertical deviation display is shown to the right of the attitude display. It is a white fixed scale employing a moving
deviation icon. The color of the deviation icon is green when displaying the on-side data and is amber when displaying
cross-side data.
The scale has two dots above and below a reference line with each dot representing a 1/4 degree deviation above or below
the glideslope beam. There is a diamond for glideslope data and a star for VNAV data.
GLIDESLOPE FLAG
During an ILS, with invalid glideslope information, a red boxed GS flag is displayed, replacing the pointer and scale.

DECLUTTER
De-clutter is used to clear all nonessential information from the PFD during aircraft upset or unusual attitudes.
When the pitch angle exceeds +30 or -20 degrees, or roll exceeds 65 degrees left or right, only the following information
is displayed on the PFD:
- Altitude
- Airspeed
- Attitude
- Vertical speed
- Heading indication
- FCC transfer indicator
When the pitch and roll limits are restored, the PFD resumes displaying all information.

ALTITUDE
Barometric altitude information on the PFD consists of:
- Altitude display and readout
- Preselect altitude
- Altitude alert
- Barometric pressure setting readout
- Minimum descent altitude (MDA)
The ADC calculates the pressure altitude and barometric corrected altitude. The altitude is preselected with the controls on
the FGP. Barometric pressure setting and DH/MDA is set through the REFS menu.
ALTITUDE DISPLAY
The altitude display is shown on the right side of the PFD as a moving tape with a fixed digital readout window.
The fine portion of the tape is marked and numbered every 100 feet. The coarse portion of the tape is used to assist the pilot
in altitude captures and gross altitude awareness and is not numbered. It is marked with large rectangles for increments of
1000 feet and small rectangles for 500 feet. The barometric altitude readout ranges from -1000 feet to 50 000 feet. The
digital readout in the fixed altitude window indicates the actual altitude.

ALTITUDE DISPLAY (Cont)
PRESELECTED ALTITUDE
The preselected altitude bug and digital readouts are set by using the ALT knob on the FGP. The preselect altitude is a ref-
erence for the altitude alert and autopilot systems. If the spring operated ALT knob is pushed, the preselect altitude incre-
ments are 100 feet or 10 meters. If the ALT knob is in the normal out position, the preselect altitude increments are 1000
feet or 100 meters. If a hundred foot value has been previously set, this will be reset to the next higher/lower thousands
value with the first rotation of the knob.
When BARO MIN is ON, the preselect altitude can be set at the value of BARO MIN. Rotating the knob one click coun-
terclockwise from the closest thousand food increment above the baro minimums will result in the altitude preselect being
set at the exact baro minimums. this allows leveling off at the exact non-precision approach minimums using the flight di-
rector or autopilot on approach.
The cyan preselect altitude readout is displayed above the altitude tape and has a selection range of -1000 feet to 45 000
feet in increments of 100 feet.
The range of the metric preselect altitude is from -300 meters to 17 000 meters.
ALTITUDE ALERT MODES
The altitude alert functions in the acquisition, deviation, and tracking modes.
The preselect altitude bug will change color and flash when the altitude acquisition and deviation parameters are exceeded.
Aural alerts accompany the visual alerts for acquisition and deviation modes.
Pressing the ALT knob will cancel an altitude alert if active.
ACQUISITION MODE
Both preselect altitude bugs flash cyan and an aural “C-chord” tone is heard when the aircraft altitude is 1000 feet above
or below the preselected altitude.
DEVIATION MODE
When an altitude deviation of 200 feet or more above or below the selected altitude occurs, both preselect indicators flash
amber and the “C-chord” tone is heard.
TRACKING
Monitoring of the preselected altitude tracking is a function of the ADCs.
VERTICAL NAVIGATION
When vertical navigation is selected (VNAV), the following are displayed:
- FMS reference altitude
- Vertical deviation and scale
- Suggested vertical speed (circular bug)
VERTICAL SPEED FIELD
The vertical speed (VS) display consists of a vertical analog scale and pointer with a green “drag line”. A part-time digital
readout of the vertical speed is also provided. The VS pointer moves up and down the scale to indicate current VS. As the
pointer moves, the drag line appears to emphasize the VS.
The vertical speed scale has a range of ± 4000 fpm. A part-time digital readout of the vertical speed is displayed on either
the top or bottom of the vertical speed scale respective of climb or descent.
Selected VS shows on the VS scale as a reference bug, and as a digital readout on the automatic flight control system
(AFCS) mode field above the attitude ball.

 FLIGHT INSTRUMENTS

PRIMARY FLIGHT DISPLAYS (Cont)

VERTICAL SPEED FIELD (Cont)
Selected VS only shows when the AFCS VS mode is active and the UP/DOWN wheel on the flight guidance panel is used
to set the selected VS. When VS mode is selected, the VS readout in the AFCS mode field appears. It is preceded by a VS
bug icon, and followed by an arrow. The readout, icon, and arrow remain in view as long as the VS mode is active. The VS
bug and display in the AFCS mode field show in cyan when commanded by the UP/DOWN wheel on the FGP. The readout
icon and bug are magenta when the FMS is in control.
The vertical speed scale is also used to display TCAS advisory deviations. The FMS vertical speed required (VSR) advisory
pointer is a magenta open circle, that indicates the minimum average VS required to climb or descend from the present
position to the next climb (or descend) altitude constraint. The FMS must be the active NAV source for the pointer to be
displayed.
RADIO ALTITUDE DISPLAY
The PFD radio altitude display is presented as both a digital and moving tape readout.
The digital readout is displayed from -20 to 2500 feet above ground level (AGL), in the lower center part of the ADI ball.
To set the RA/ BARO MIN, or MIN ALERT, push the REFS button on the DCP to display and scroll through the menu
pages on the PFD. Rotate the MENU knob to position the cyan cursor box around the selectable value for the RA/BARO
MINS. The PUSH SELECT button on the DCP selects the next MIN ALERT option in the sequence. Rotating the DATA
knob, on the DCP, increases or decreases the values to be set. To change a value, the cyan selection box must be moved to
that value. The selected value shows in large cyan text; non-selected text will show in small white text. The menu pages
are automatically removed from the PFD 20 seconds after the last activity.
RADIO ALTITUDE FLAG
If the radio altitude data is invalid, a red boxed RA label is displayed and the radio altitude tape and digit readouts
are removed.
RA MIN
The digital range can be selected from 0 to 999 feet and is set on the REFS menu. When the aircraft descends to decision
height, an amber boxed MIN indication is displayed when selected minimums are reached.
BARO MIN
BARO MIN has a range of 0 to 15 000 feet and is set on the REFS menu. The selected minimums will display in cyan as
MIN XXX RA or MIN XXX BARO, depending on which was set. The XXX represents the selected digital value.
As minimum descent altitude is approached, the cyan minimums pointer appears on the altitude tape. When the aircraft
reaches minimums, a flashing amber MIN label is presented on the right edge of the attitude indicator.
AIR DATA FLAGS
When ADC airspeed, altitude or vertical speed data is invalid, red air data flags are presented to replace the affected systems
information.

AIR DATA SYSTEM

DESCRIPTION
Air data information is sensed by the pitot static system and total air temperature (TAT) probe. This data is processed by
the air data computers (ADCs) and sent to the flight displays, IAPS, and several aircraft systems. Cockpit controls include
the BARO SET knob, ADC REVERSION switch, several flight guidance panel (FGP) controls, and the reference speeds
(REFS) menu settings.
COMPONENTS AND OPERATION
Airspeed information displayed on the PFD include:
- Airspeed display
- Reference speeds
- Low/high/speed cues
- Airspeed trend vector
- Mach number display
The V1, VR, V2, VREF, VGA, and VT reference speeds are set through the REFS push button on the display control panel.
The SPEED knob, on the flight guidance panel (FGP) is used to set the cyan speed bug on the airspeed display.
AIRSPEED DISPLAY
The airspeed display is a moving vertical tape, with the digital display of the current airspeed in the fixed window. The
display is located to the left of the attitude sphere on the PFDs. The current Mach number is indicated as a digital value
at the bottom of the tape. If the aircraft speed is greater than 0.4 Mach, the crew can select a Mach tape, which replaces the
airspeed tape.
The indicated airspeed tape has an airspeed range from 40 to 400 kt. The tape has a scale that is marked every 5 kt and
numerically marked every 20 kt.
REFERENCE SPEEDS
The takeoff reference speeds are presented on the speed scale as a V1, VR, V2, and VT. Manually set V speed values show
in cyan characters; optional FMS-calculated V speed characters show in magenta.
The FGP SPEED knob is used to select and set the airspeed reference bug to the desired speed on the airspeed tape. The
speed bug is located beside the selected speed with a ± 5 knot deviation indication.
When the center of the SPEED knob is depressed, the speed reference toggles between Mach and speed.
LOW/OVERSPEED/FLAP SPEED CUES
A low speed cue indicates a calculated airspeed of 1.06 VS. It appears from the lower portion of the airspeed scale and is
displayed as a solid red line that changes to an expanded alternating red and black band when the aircraft is within a few
knots of activating the stickshaker. The top of this cue visually represents the speed at which the stick shaker will activate.
An overspeed cue is provided to indicate the maximum operating speed. It appears in the upper portion of the airspeed scale
and is displayed as a solid redline that changes to an alternating red and black band when approaching overspeed.The over-
speed cue reduces to the flap operating speed limit when the flaps are extended.
TREND VECTOR
The airspeed trend vector originates from the tail of the indicated airspeed arrow. The magenta trend vector moves verti-
cally in response to the aircraft acceleration or deceleration indicating the speed predicted in the next 10 seconds.

The AIR DATA switch is located on the reversion panel on the center pedestal. When NORM is selected, the pilot’s and
copilot’s adaptive flight displays receive data from their respective air data computer (ADC).
When ‘1’ is selected, the pilot’s and copilot’s adaptive flight displays receive data from ADC 1 only. An amber ADC 1
message is displayed on both PFDs.
When ‘2’ is selected, the pilot’s and copilot’s adaptive flight displays receive data from ADC 2 only. An amber ADC 2
message is displayed on both PFDs.
AIR DATA COMPUTERS
Each ADC senses total pressure, static pressure, and total temperature. The pressure sensors are solid-state piezoresistive
type, and transform the pressure to an analog electrical signal. The analog signal is then digitized and used for all ADC
calculations. Data is then passed from the ADCs to the cockpit displays, IAPS, other aircraft systems.
The ADC calculates the following air data parameters:
- Pressure altitude
- Static pressure
- Total pressure
- Vertical speed
- Airspeed
- Mach number
- Maximum airspeed (VMO)/maximum mach number (MMO)
- Baro correction
- Barometric corrected altitude
- Static air temperature
- Total air temperature
- True AIRSPEED
- Temperature difference from standard (ISA)

ATTITUDE AND HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM (AHRS)

INTRODUCTION
The aircraft attitude and heading reference system (AHRS) is a strapped gyro reference system that generates angular rate
and linear acceleration information about the aircraft axes.
Combining the acceleration gyro information with heading data from the flux detector provides highly accurate three-axes
AHRS information.
The AHRS interfaces with the following systems:
- EFIS
- Weather radar
- Autoflight control system (AFCS)
- Flight data recorder (FDR)
- Integrated avionics processor system (IAPS)
- Terrain awareness warning system (TAWS)
- Traffic alert and collision avoidance system (TCAS)
- Stall protection system
The AHRS consists of two computers, two flux detector units and two external compensator units. Both Attitude Heading
Reference Systems are active permanently. AHRS mode selections are carried out through the COMPASS HEADING and
COMPASS SLEW switches. The AHRS normally operates in magnetic mode (MAG). Directional gyro mode (DG) may
be selected in areas where magnetic field disruptions exist.
The AHS-3000/3000A system is not designed for use as a polar navigator. Flying in or around the fringe of low magnetic
flux areas can cause temporary dropouts in required flux levels for the system to operate properly.
Initialization and operation of the AHRS occurs automatically when electrical power is established and the aircraft is sta-
tionary. Initialization takes approximately 40 seconds in MAG mode and 4.5 minutes in DG mode.

ATTITUDE AND HEADING REFERENCE SYSTEM (Cont)

COMPONENTS AND OPERATION
AHRS COMPUTERS
Each AHRS computer has a dual-sensor assembly. Each sensor assembly has four pairs of piezoelectric accelerometer sen-
sors mounted on a rotating wheel. These sensors provide the rate and acceleration data.
The sensor data combined with ADC and heading information is processed by the AHRS computers and transmitted for
use by the adaptive flight displays (AFD), and by the integrated avionics processor system (IAPS), which itself interfaces
with the flight guidance computer (FGC) and flight management system (FMS).
MAGNETIC FLUX DETECTORS
Each of the two magnetic flux detectors senses the earth’s magnetic field and provides corrected heading information to its
respective attitude heading computer.
External compensator units store corrections for any north/south, east/west or misalignment of the flux detectors.
COMPASS CONTROL AND SLEW SWITCHES
There are two COMPASS HEADING switches and SLEW switches located on either side of the main flight instrument
panel. There are two modes of operation, magnetic heading (slaved) mode, and directional gyro (DG or free gyro) mode.
The HEADING switches are used to select the mode.
In the magnetic heading mode, heading computations are slaved to the attitude heading computer and the flux detectors. In
DG mode, magnetic flux detector data is removed. DG mode is not intended for long term heading reference.
In DG mode, the selection of the SLEW switch causes the heading to slew in the selected direction.

STANDBY INSTRUMENT
DESCRIPTION
The self-contained standby indicator supplies the pilots with backup attitude, barometric altitude and airspeed indications.
The standby instrument receives information from the standby pitot static system.
COMPONENTS AND OPERATION
STANDBY INDICATOR
The indicator supplies the flight crew with displays of aircraft speed, attitude, slip/skid, and glideslope/localizer data as
long as 28 vdc power is available.
The localizer and glideslope data come from the VHF navigation receiver 1. The localizer and glideslope pointers and
scales are not in view until an ILS frequency is selected.
If the localizer data becomes invalid, a red LOC or GS flag is visible and the pointer, and scale are removed from sight.
ALIGNING FLAG
When the standby instrument is first energized, an ALIGNING flag is visible. From initial application of the 28vdc power,
the display requires a maximum of 90 seconds to stabilize, providing aircraft attitude is less than 5°. After aligning, the flag
is no longer visible.
STANDBY INSTRUMENT FUNCTIONS
The standby instrument is operated as follows:
- Gyro caging (CAGE)
- Baro-settings (STD)
- Dimming adjustment (BRT and DIM)
- A rotary knob (BARO) is provided to enter the barometric pressure correction.

CLOCK/CHRONOMETER
DESCRIPTION
A digital electronic clock/chronometer is installed on the center of the instrument panel just below the standby instrument.
COMPONENTS AND OPERATION
FLIGHT TIME (FLT/RST)
Flight time (FLT) represents the time that the aircraft is “in air” as determined by the status of the in air/on ground discrete
input. The FLT starts counting from zero (00:00) when the on-ground/in-air input transitions from ground (on-ground) to
open (in-air). The FLT stops counting when the on-ground/in-air input transitions from open (in-air) to ground (on-ground).
The FLT resets to 00:00 by pressing the FLT RST switch for a period of 2 or more seconds.
CHRONOGRAPH (CHR)
The chronograph (CHR) begins counting upon depression of the CHR switch. The first switch actuation starts the CHR
from zero (00:00). Pressing the switch again stops the CHR timer. Pressing the switch a third time deletes the display and
resets the CHR timer.
GPS/MAN MODE
GPS
The chronometer uses external GPS time when the user has selected GPS mode. GPS mode is indicated by an illuminated
“GPS” indication on the LCD display.
MAN
The chronometer uses a highly accurate internal time base when the user has selected manual mode. Manual mode is indi-
cated by the absence of the “GPS” indication on the LCD display.
MODE
The mode push button provides two functions. Pressing the mode button will toggle between the UTC (zulu time),
LOC (local time) and date displays. By pressing and holding the mode button for more than two seconds, the chronometer
will enter the UTC, LOC and date mode.

STANDBY COMPASS
DESCRIPTION
The standby compass supplies the flight crew with the magnetic heading data. This system is in constant operation and is
used as an auxiliary display.
COMPONENT AND OPERATION
The standby compass is installed in a bracket on the center post of the windshield, above the flight guidance panel. The
compass is aligned with the aircraft longitudinal axis.
The standby compass is a self-contained unit that has a transparent and molded bowl and is filled with silicon fluid. In the
fluid is a sphere with a compass dial. Silicone fluid is used to insure free and smooth movement in order to provide an ac-
curate indication. Metal bellows in the compass let the fluid volume expand and contract to changes in temperature and
altitude.
The standby compass is lighted and uses a special non-magnetic bulb. The light unit is powered by 5 vdc from the integral
light controller.
The compass dial shows markings for the four cardinal heading (N, E, S, W) and has numerals every 30°, with bars every
10°. The last numeral is not shown (for example “24” means “240”). Heading of the aircraft is read against the vertical
lubber line.
To operate correctly, the compass needs installation adjustments and also corrections for heading indication errors caused
by magnetic interference from the aircraft electrical and avionics system. During the adjustment procedure, the heading
reference is supplied by the attitude and heading references system (AHRS).
The standby compass is adjusted in the vertical axis with two adjustment screws that attach the compass to the mounting
bracket through two extended holes. At the top of the compass there is an index error adjustment scale. The center major
index mark on this scale is used as a reference point during the adjustment procedures.
The standby compass has also two compensators (B and C) installed at the top area of the compass. They are used to adjust
the readings for the magnetic interferences.
COMPASS CORRECTION CARD
The standby compass system includes a compass correction card installed on a bracket above the standby compass. The
compass correction card has a STEER row used to write the corrected heading for each of the cardinal headings and for the
30° increments.
