About the Initial App Download

The FliteDeck Pro X app and data, including subsequent data updates, requires
2–6 GB of available storage capacity on your device.
The variability in the storage capacity requirement is related to the size of your
data coverage area. Any additional data, such as Airport Moving Map (AMM) or
tailored data, also affects storage requirements.
After you download FliteDeck Pro X to your device, you must activate the license
and complete an initial download of data. Usually, the activation code and data
are downloaded from the Jeppesen server. Alternatively, you might also need to
look for an email from JDMNotification sent to you by your EFB administrator. This
email includes instructions for completing the process.

About Battery Life

The following describes the effects of various features on the battery life of a
device.
• The brightness level of the device display has the most significant effect on
battery life.
• When FliteDeck Pro X is put in the background, GPS remains active to
maintain location.
• If the device is stationary for over an hour, GPS goes into low power mode and
resumes when the device moves again.
• There is some extra battery drain when Present Position is engaged and the
app goes into moving map mode.

Introduction
Connectivity Considerations
Connectivity Considerations
FliteDeck Pro X requires a reliable internet connection to perform many of its
capabilities. Some functionality, however, only requires the built-in GPS on the
iPadOS device to receive satellite information. Other functionality requires a
common Bluetooth or Wi-Fi connection.
Data Over the Internet

FliteDeck Pro X requires an internet connection to:
• Download the app and any subsequent data updates

• Retrieve flight plan routes from a flight planning system
• Retrieve recently cleared ATC routes
• Display OTS data
• Retrieve state NOTAMs
• Display internet Weather layers overlaid on the enroute map
• Display METAR, TAF, and D-ATIS information
Sharing Flight Information

To share flight information between two devices actively running FliteDeck Pro X,
you only need both devices to be on the same Bluetooth or Wi-Fi network. You do
not need an internet connection to share flight information between two devices.
Location Services
FliteDeck Pro X displays moving map and ownship position based on device
location services. The location service may use either an internal GPS receiver or
an external receiver that you configure.
Internal GPS
If you are using the internal GPS from an iPadOS device, make sure that the
internal GPS and location service are enabled.
1. To enable location-based services, tap Settings from your device Home

screen.
2. From the list of apps on the left, tap FD Pro X.
3. Tap the Location flyout.
4. Tap Always.
NOTE: Location Services must be allowed to enable FliteDeck Pro X to keep

your aircraft location up to date.

NOTE: When connected, the GPS data from the AID overrides any other internal
or external GPS source. FliteDeck Pro X can be configured to allow use of
the device location services when not connected to an AID.
FliteDeck Pro X 4.4 supports the following AID protocols:
• Boeing ONS
• CMC Electronics PilotView®
• FreeFlight Systems RANGR devices outfitted with FWF-125 Serial WiFi
• Gogo
• Jeppesen Standard
• navAero
• NMEA over UDP
• Rockwell Collins FOMAX
• Teledyne GroundLink® AID+
Due to differences in AIDs and their installations, different configuration

parameters may be needed. The AID integrator may provide the needed configu-
ration information. If you need additional information, contact your EFB adminis-
trator or Jeppesen account manager.
Connecting to ADS-B Devices

FliteDeck Pro X can connect to an ADS-B device to display position information,
weather (FIS-B) and traffic (TIS-B) over Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. For more information,
see Displaying ADS-B Traffic and Weather on page 72.

(FIS-B) reception from ground-based ADS-B towers. The Signal Quality
status does not indicate the reception quality of traffic from ground-based
ADS-B towers.
Where Can I Receive ADS-B Traffic and Weather?

U.S. & Territories
The United States is the only country with a distributed array of ADS-B towers that
broadcast ADS-B traffic and weather services. This means that ADS-B In capabil-
ities are most useful in the United States where both weather and traffic services
are available.
Global
Outside the United States, ADS-B receivers can pick up ADS-B Out signals from
other aircraft and vehicles (ground and air traffic) that can be displayed within
FliteDeck Pro X on both the enroute map and Airport Moving Map (AMM).

Displaying Ownship on the Enroute Map

To display ownship on the enroute map, the following conditions must be met:
• Both Moving Map and Display Ownship are set to ON in FliteDeck Pro X
global settings.
• Minimum GPS accuracy requirements are met.
NOTE: Centering the map over aircraft position and displaying the ownship
symbol on the enroute map are actions designed to improve situational

46
awareness during enroute flight. These functions are not to be used as the
basis for navigation.
Viewing Moving Map

You can view Moving Map without displaying ownship by turning Moving Map
(and not Display Ownship) ON in FliteDeck Pro X global settings. In this case,
the map moves along with ownship position, and the Present Position and Map
Orientation buttons are still available - just without the display of ownship.
Viewing Present Position

The Present Position button is available on the enroute map when Moving Map in
FliteDeck Pro X global settings is set to ON, you have panned the map away from
current ownship position, and minimum GPS accuracy requirements are met.
 To recenter the map over ownship position:

Working with the Route List
The Route List dynamically displays navigation objects that are within the route corridor of your flight.
Key information includes operational notes (such as prior notifications), CPDLC logons, comm sector frequen-
cies, and compulsory reporting points. These are all presented as they occur along your route - filtered by
direction, applicability to a specific FIR sector, and entry and exit from a given airspace.
Show and Hide the Route List

To display information in the Route List, you must enter two or more points in the
Flight Drawer.
 To show and hide the Route List:
• Tap the Route Info button.
About the Route List

The top of the Route List corresponds with the beginning of your route.
Objects with operational notes are numbered when the object intersects the route
corridor. The numbers start with 1 at the origin and increment as you progress
toward the destination.
When an operational note is associated with a permanent user waypoint that

intersects the route corridor, the note is identified with the label Off Route.
You can scroll the list by dragging your finger up and down the list. You can also
set the Route List to scroll along with the Moving Map by enabling Moving Map in
the FliteDeck Pro X global settings.
When the list scrolls, objects within a FIR boundary slide underneath the FIR row
in the list. When the last object for that FIR scrolls under the FIR, the next FIR
scrolls to the top.
If you modify your route, the Route List refreshes and any numbered notes along
the top of the Route List corresponds with the beginning of your route.
NOTE: Permanent user waypoints and map objects that have operational notes
associated with them that intersect with the route corridor are identified in
the Route List.

49
Adjusting the Width of the Route Corridor

The route corridor is the shaded area on each side of your route that is displayed
in the Route List. The width of the route corridor determines how much
information displays in the Route List.
When the corridor is wider, more notes and route-based information appear in the
Route List. When the corridor is more narrow, fewer notes and less route-based
information appear in the Route List.
The default width of the route corridor overland (the Default setting) is 10 NM. The
default width of the corridor over sea (the Oceanic setting) is 25 NM.
NOTE: The route corridor changes from Default setting to Oceanic setting at FIR
and UIR boundaries.
 To adjust the width of the route corridor:

Controlling Weather Data Downloads

The size of weather data downloads varies based on current conditions, the time
of day, the time of year, and length of route. Weather data is prioritized to
download along your route. Once that prioritized weather data is downloaded,
however, weather data also downloads for the view that is displayed. If viewing
half the globe, for example, that is what is downloaded. For operators with internet
connection during flight, this could significantly increase the amount of data
downloaded.
FliteDeck Pro X Weather Data Size Estimates

For reference, on average, a one-time download for a world-wide coverage is:
• Winds and Temps Aloft = 3.4 MB
• Surface Conditions (including METAR and TAF) = 1.2 MB
• Lightning = 580 KB
• SIGMETs = 160 KB
The following table provides some representative examples of the size of weather
data downloads by route. The values are for a one-time download of the data. All
tests were done with Download Wx Only Along Route enabled in global settings.

Displaying ADS-B Traffic and Weather
Displaying ADS-B Traffic on the Enroute Map
When configured to connect to a supported ADS-B device and Enable ADS-B

Traffic is set to ON in global settings, FliteDeck Pro X displays a Traffic (TFC)
button on the enroute and Airport Moving Map filter menu.
Enroute Traffic Depiction

You can access Traffic Information Service-Broadcast (TIS-B) and ADS-B Out
with altitude, ground track, speed, distance, and tail number, when available, of
aircraft flying in radar contact with controllers, and within a 15-nautical mile radius,
up to 3,500 feet above or below the receiving aircraft’s position.
With ADS-B traffic you can:
• Support correct flight crew reactions to “see and avoid” traffic calls through the
visualization of traffic with tail number in context of waypoints and weather
• Enhance situational awareness as crew see paths of converging traffic early,
so they can be on alert for sequencing and avoidance instructions
• Increase crew preparation time for speed or heading changes needed to fit in
with traffic flow, by enabling them to see the density and speed of traffic ahead
when they hear radio calls for traffic that can be visualized near or along their
flight route

72
As with all map filter buttons, FliteDeck Pro X displays four different button states:
• An amber cue indicates that a filter is applied to the object.

• Blue highlighted buttons indicate that the object is available and showing on
the map.
• White buttons indicate that the object is available but not showing on the map.
For Traffic, it means that the ADS-B device is connected and traffic information
is available, but it is not showing on the map.
• Dark gray buttons indicate that the object is not available at the current zoom
level or from the selected enroute theme. For Traffic, it indicates that ADS-B is
enabled, but no device is connected, or no data is being received.
FIGURE 15: ADS-B Traffic (TFC) button states
 To show and hide ADS-B traffic:
1. Make sure Enable ADS-B Traffic is set to ON in global settings.

2. Tap the TFC button.

About ADS-B Traffic Information

FliteDeck Pro X displays traffic information received from the ADS-B device
using cyan-colored symbols and text. Traffic information on the enroute map
includes:
• Relative Altitude - FliteDeck Pro X displays the relative altitude between

your current altitude and the traffic target altitude in hundreds of feet, when
available. A plus sign (+) indicates that the traffic target is above your
current altitude and a minus sign (-) indicates it is below your current
altitude.
• Traffic Symbol - For moving traffic targets with heading information,
FliteDeck Pro X displays an ownship symbol (arrowhead) pointing in the
direction that the traffic is moving. For stationary traffic targets, FliteDeck
Pro X displays a diamond to depict the traffic targets.
• Up (Climbing) or Down (Descending) Arrow - FliteDeck Pro X displays
an up or down arrow to depict traffic climbing or descending. If the altitude
of the traffic is not changing, FliteDeck Pro X omits the arrow.
• Call Sign or Tail Number - FliteDeck Pro X displays the call sign or tail
number of the traffic when it is available from the ADS-B broadcast.

73
NOTE: FliteDeck Pro X provides ADS-B traffic information on the enroute map to
help maintain situational awareness during enroute flight. This function-
ality is not to be used as the sole basis of traffic avoidance.

ADS-B Weather (FIS-B) overlaid on the enroute map.
Enroute Weather Depiction

Aircraft flying within the continental United States can receive Flight Information
Service–Broadcast (FIS-B), which broadcasts live, inflight graphical weather to
the cockpit as well as text-based advisories.
With ADS-B Weather you can:
• Reduce the risk of having to fly through significant weather, by being able to
request a deviation earlier, enhanced when crew monitor requests from other
aircraft visualized along their flight route

74
• Enable a better visualization of weather cells moving across an airfield, or

understand changes in the METAR at the destination and neighboring airports
Text-based advisories include METAR and TAF reports. Graphical content

includes:
• Regional Radar
• CONUS Radar
• Turbulence
• Icing Severity
• Surface Conditions
• SIGMETs
