NOTE: The GTCs do not seem to sync the databases easily, so this procedure has been developed to improve the
syncing process:
• Pull the MFD circuit breaker.
• Pull the R Touch Control circuit breaker.
• Apply aircraft power.
• When the left GTC is synced (Home or Initialization screen appears), wait one minute, and then pull
the L Touch Control circuit breaker.
• Engage the R Touch Control circuit breaker.
• When the right GTC is synced (Home or Initialization screen appears), wait one minute, and then
turn off aircraft power.
• Engage the L Touch Control and MFD circuit breakers.
15) From the HOME screen on the GTC touch UTILITIES > SETUP > AVIONICS STATUS > DATABASE
16) Verify expiration date on MFD1, PFD1, PFD2, GTC1, and GTC2 to ensure update was successful.
17) The Garmin lower display cards must remain in the aircraft displays to prevent error messages from displaying.
