You're the best man. A "little" detail I needed to know was what card holds what data base. And right off the bat you broke it down in your description. Many thanks.
Al.....I can’t thank you enough for this video! You made what is a convoluted and poorly explained process in other videos extremely easy to follow. This is bookmarked and will be used in the future!
Awesome, thanks for the data. I learned to fly "steam punk" everything and finished up my IFR using "steam punk" while my instructor fiddled around with something called a "GPS" receiver on the right side of the panel. This "GPS" thing through some kind of magic incantation and witchcraft was able to interface with the Nav. heads. All I know is I managed to work into an IFR rating that I enjoyed flying. It was actually fun flying actual IFR working on the ticket. Looking forward to flying a glass panel with an airplane in a hanger fairly soon. Thanks for your Cirrus information.
You should note in the title that you are updating with Jeppeson. I am using Garmin in my G5 G1000 panel and Garmin Pilot on the tablet. Most setups have four dedicated cards. PFD upper is the Nav card. PFD lower is the Garmin DB card prime. MFD upper is the Data Logging card, MFD lower is the Garmin DB backup card. After updating on the PC replace the PFD/MFD Garmin DB cards in their slots. When updating with the Nav card, start with the PFD which has an empty upper slot. Power up. Skip the backup database for Nav as you did in the video. Power down. Then remove the logging card from the upper MFD slot and put in the Nav card and do the update on that side too. Then power down again and replace the Data Logging card in the MFD. Save the Nav card somewhere for later updates (I use a plastic CD clamshell cover which lets me transport all the SD cards to update on my PC at home). You are done.
Thanks Speedo. Sounds like you use the other way of updating via Garmin. Jeppessen and Garmin are places where the databases can be bought. I know you know that but stating it here for others.
@@MikeKobb The Nav update is needed if you forgo the synch option as I do. I also do not use the backup DB update feature. I wait for the new updates from Garmin, load them onto the cards and update plane as they come out.
@@al.waterloo Yes. I wanted Cirrus owners to know they do not have to stick with Jeppesen. The factory will load Jeppesen and give a one year subscription on new aircraft. But if later you want to switch to the less costly Garmin products you have to pay for a maint. change in the panel, you can't just load Garmin on top of Jeppesen. If you don't want to pay that penalty later, then tell Cirrus not to update the panel with Jeppesen, but use Garmin instead from the get go. Garmin will also discount their EFB Garmin Pilot if you use their DB software.
Al, Great video. Thanks for all the step by step instruction. Also might want to mention that the top MFD slot should have the Data Logging Card in it, to be taken out when updating the NavData, and then put back in when completed.
Hi Al, Thanks for the great instructional video on updating the databases. I’m purchasing a G3 SR22T next week and found your video helpful as I learn how to do these updates myself. Thanks again!
Sir can you tell all the procedure from A to Z like requirement and one a big problem we have that how we can change simple map to HD to show us all the weathers. Hope you make a video for us and thank you so much from ur intresting videos. Long life sir ❤❤❤
Great Video. A couple of questions. How will I know when it is time to update the basemap or the terrain database? And which card should they be loaded onto?
Rather than lug the laptop to the plane every 28 days, is there another best practice? Can I duplicate the MFD/PFD cards and keep one full set at home, update, bring to the plane and bring the older ones back?
When i try to update the charts on EX5000 it fails and shows the following message: " cmax data failed to update, internal error 2" I have already tried to generate a cmax code on JDM but still not working..
You usually have to update the databases during the Grace period between cycles. You can do this procedure when the new databases are available and then just click “yes” to updating the standby databases.
I Alan hope you are well buddy. I have losted contact with you on Instagram I pressed a wrong button phil. I can not get in to my Instagram.what your in it is locked.i have got a few sections I keep trying to get you on my other section I put your name in but nothing comes up under your name because you are in the one that is locked. Take care phil. Nice to see you now the sun as gone down.
Excellent job on this video - I watch it when I forget particular sequences. Such an easy to follow guide. Thank you!

Best video on how to update the data cards and the G1000. I watch it every time before I do the update.
This is by far the best walk thru on updating the perspective - thank you

probably best video for updating the legacy g1000 system. sweet
Thank you!

No need to do nav updates on both sides. If you do the nav update as shown on the MFD side, it will automatically cross-sync to the PFD.

@@speedomars Out of curiosity, why don't you let the G1000 sync the data from MFD to PFD?
Al, Great video. Thanks for all the step by step instruction. Also might want to mention that the top MFD slot should have the Data Logging Card in it, to be taken out when updating the NavData, and then put back in when completed.
Thats a good mention that I left out. Thank you.

Will try to make this video. Thank you for the suggestion.
Awesome video thank you for keeping it simple i am a new subscriber now !!!!!
Thank you!
Love it. Thanks for this tutorial...
Awesome, glad you enjoyed it.
Another useful video, thank you.
Glad you found it helpful.
Great video, well done! Did you put the nav data card in both the MFD and PFD?
Thanks Al for your help
Super helpful, Al. Thanks!
Glad it was helpful!

Great info, thanks

Rather than lug the laptop to the plane every 28 days, is there another best practice? Can I duplicate the MFD/PFD cards and keep one full set at home, update, bring to the plane and bring the older ones back?
Al - great video! The PDF link doesn't seem to work any more. Any chance that you can repost a fresh link? thx!!! Todd
What about the top PFD slot, any need for an SD card to go in the slot for updates? Ty
Awesome, merci
You are welcome!
Deleting all files from the SD card? Meaning all the files, what if its new sd card frm the store? Thanks
When i try to update the charts on EX5000 it fails and shows the following message: " cmax data failed to update, internal error 2" I have already tried to generate a cmax code on JDM but still not working..
Al, after following this it shows my Stby NAV database expiring in a week or so and it’s in yellow. How is the Stby nav database updated?
You usually have to update the databases during the Grace period between cycles. You can do this procedure when the new databases are available and then just click “yes” to updating the standby databases.
The link is not working for me. Anyone help !!
Are you looking to download the one page flyer?
What about Terrain, where does it goes?
And base map?
Same question
Those go on the PFD and MFD bottom cards as well. Only diff between the two bottom cards should be the charts. Charts only go on the bottom MFD card.
Thank you for answering
I Alan hope you are well buddy. I have losted contact with you on Instagram I pressed a wrong button phil.

I hope you can get the instagram worked out!
Do you "empty" the bottom PFD and MFD cards before you download required files?
Hi Erik, you don’t need to empty the Garmin PFD and MFD bottom cards
