APPENDIX A
SD Card Use and Databases
The G600 System uses Secure Digital (SD) cards to load and store various
types of data. For basic flight operations, SD cards are required for database
storage as well as database updates.
Jeppesen Databases
The navigation database is updated on a 28 day cycle. Navigation database
updates are provided by Garmin and may be downloaded from the Garmin
website “fly.garmin.com” onto a Garmin provided Supplemental Datacard.
Contact Garmin at fly.garmin.com for navigation database updates and update
kits. The Navigation database is stored internally and the Datacard is only used
to transfer the database into the unit.
The optional ChartView database is updated on a 14 day cycle. The ChartView
database is provided directly from Jeppesen. Contact Jeppesen (www.jeppesen.
com) for ChartView subscription and update information.
Updating the Jeppesen navigation database
1) With the G600 System OFF, insert the SD card containing the navigation
database update into the upper card slot of the GDU 620 to be updated (label
of SD card should face up).
2) Turn the G600 System ON.
3) Verify the correct update cycle is loaded during power-up.
