(1) Aircraft Preparation
(a) Apply electrical power to aircraft.
(b) On cockpit overhead panel in DISPLAYS section, select switches as follows:
• PILOT switch on (depressed)
• EICAS switch on (depressed)
• COPILOT switch on (depressed)
(c) Verify aircraft configuration as follows:
• Airspeed less than 50 knots
• Aircraft in ground mode
• Aircraft Inertial Reference Units (IRU) installed and powered
NOTE: If aircraft is on jacks, 1159GSEP50109 weight on wheels wedge is the only
authorized tool to put this system in ground configuration mode.
B. Procedure
NOTE: Comply with appropriate procedure as follows:
• Data Loader - Procedure: Step 3.B.(1)
• Personal Computer Data Link (PCDL) - Procedure: Step 3.B.(2)
(1) Data Loader - Procedure
(a) Ensure power is applied to data loader, then verify the following:
• Power LED is on
• After power up Built-In Test Equipment (BITE) completed, DATA light comes on
(b) Select LEFT, RIGHT or AUX (third FMS) to load respective FMS.
(c) Insert memory stick into loader.
(d) Select DATA LOAD from NAV INDEX on selected Control Display Unit (CDU).
(e) Select NAV DB prompt from DATA LOAD menu on CDU. See Figure 302.
(f) Select NAV DB from DATA TO BE LOADED menu on CDU. See Figure 302.
(g) Select which FMS data is to be loaded (i.e., TO PILOT, TO COPILOT).
NOTE: Aircraft with NZ-2000 version 5.0 or greater and having data loader DL-900
with Mod C or greater may select TO ALL to load all NDBs at once.
(h) Select FR LOADER prompt on TRANSFER OF NAV DB menu on CDU. See Figure

Percentage of completion will be displayed on TRANSFER OF NAV DB page

on CDU.
When complete, message DB TRANSFER COMPLETE is displayed and FMS
performs a restart.
If power is interrupted, ABORT is selected or other problems that stop loading
process occurs, data load process must be repeated from beginning.
(k) On aircraft without NZ-2000 version 5.0 or greater, repeat Step 3.B.(1)(b) thru Step
3.B.(1)(j) for remaining FMS’s.
NOTE: Cross-loading of NAV and custom databases can be done, however using
data loader is recommended for updating NDB as it has a higher loading
speed than cross loading process.
(l) On aircraft with NZ-2000 version 5.0 or greater and having data loader DL-900 with
Mod C or greater, proceed to Step 3.C.(1).
(2) Personal Computer Data Link (PCDL) - Procedure
NOTE: Only one FMS may be loaded at a time.

(c) Connect ethernet cable between FMS DATA PORT 1 / 2 / 3 on system monitor and test
panel and PCMCIA ethernet card jack on PC data loader.
(d) Insert PCDL CD ROM into PC data loader.
NOTE: Program should auto run once CD ROM is installed (wait 20 - 30 seconds). If
not, select PCDL.exe from Windows Explorer window.
(e) After main PCDL window appears, depress applicable FMS circuit breakers pulled in
Step 3.B.(2)(b).
(f) After navigation computers initialize, monitor Status column of PCDL until Ready
message is displayed indicating communication has been established.
NOTE: Communication requires 30 - 45 seconds to be established between PC and
FMS.

data base windows will become unshaded.
Effective Period of data on CD ROM and NDB Ident will appear on right side
of window.
If program fails to connect to FMS, cycle power to FMS by pulling and
depressing applicable circuit breakers.
(g) For aircraft being worked, verify the following information is correct:

(r) Depress circuit breakers pulled in Step 3.B.(2)(o).
(s) On aircraft with NZ-2000 version 5.0 or greater and having data loader DL-900 with
Mod C or greater, proceed to Step 3.C.(1).
C. Follow On
(1) On NAV IDENT page, verify correct NDB installed and correct date is displayed under
ACTIVE NDB line on right side of CDU screen.
(2) On cockpit overhead panel in DISPLAYS section, select switches as follows:
