connection to share flight information between two devices.

4
Introduction
Tracking Position
FliteDeck Pro X displays moving map and ownship position based on either the
internal GPS on your device or an external GPS device that you have specified.
GPS does not need an internet connection to receive satellite information.
Enabling Local Network Access

Local network access is required for connecting with ADS-B and AID devices, as
well as supporting Flight Sharing capabilities. For more information, see Enabling
Local Network.
Enabling 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.
Using 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 iOS device home
screen.

your aircraft location up to date.
Using External GPS Device

If you are using an external GPS device, make sure that FliteDeck Pro X is visible
to an external GPS device.
1. To establish a Bluetooth connection, tap Settings from your device home

screen.
2. Tap Bluetooth.
3. Under Devices, select the external GPS device you want to use.
Connecting to an Aircraft Interface Device (AID)

FliteDeck Pro X supports AIDs from various vendors. To support a connection to
an Aircraft Interface Device (AID), you can configure FliteDeck Pro X to connect
automatically to the AID by entering aircraft connection parameters.

5
Introduction
FliteDeck Pro X connects through the crew wireless (Wi-Fi) network to transfer
GPS position between the aircraft onboard data system and FliteDeck Pro X.
When connected to an AID, the GPS data from the AID overrides any other
internal or external GPS source.
When an AID connection is configured, and a connection is not established within

ten seconds, the internal GPS for the mobile device is used instead of the AID.
NOTE: FliteDeck Pro X can be configured to not allow use of the device location
services when an AID connection is configured but an AID connection is
not established.
FliteDeck Pro X 4.6.1 supports the following AID protocols:
• Boeing ONS
• Collins
• CMC Electronics PilotView®
• FreeFlight Systems RANGR devices outfitted with FWF-125 Serial Wi-Fi
• Jeppesen Standard
• navAero
• NMEA over UDP
• 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.
NOTE: Operators might be required to get added authorization to use this func-
tionality. Any offset of the GPS antenna should be accounted for in
determining the total accuracy of the system.
Connecting to an ADS-B Device

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.
Supported ADS-B Devices
FliteDeck Pro X currently supports connections with the following ADS-B

receivers:

FliteDeck Pro X displays permanent user waypoints on the enroute map with a
star symbol. By default, user waypoints are defined as permanent.
Temporary user waypoints are depicted by a star symbol inside a box.
Temporary user waypoints are points you create to be used for a single instance
in your route. FliteDeck Pro X displays temporary user waypoints on the enroute
map with a star symbol inside a box.
The three types of user waypoints that you can create are:
• Latitude and longitude user waypoints—you can create these user

waypoints by tapping the map where you want the user waypoint, and then
selecting Done from the New Waypoint popover. They are represented on the
enroute map by a star and labeled with coordinates.
• Radial DME user waypoints—the location of these waypoints is based on the
radial DME that you enter in the New Waypoint popover Name field. They are
represented on the enroute map by a star and the Radial DME names.
• Named user waypoints—create these waypoints to name a point for easier
recognition and recall. They are represented on the enroute map by a star and
the name you enter in the New Waypoint popover Name field.

crews can filter airports on the enroute map using these classifications.
Company airports are shaded brown on the enroute map as are the tags in the
Airport Briefing sheet - unless they provide emergency services in which case
they are shaded red.
An airport can be assigned one primary usage classification, and multiple
secondary classifications.
FliteDeck Pro X filters airports by the primary usage classification from the
enroute map filter menu.
Company Notes
An operator can publish two different types of company notes: operational and
informational. An operator associates company notes with various objects on
the enroute map, such as airports, boundaries, waypoints, and Company
Comms.
For example, an operator might associate informational remarks with
Company Comms to better describe company usages at an airport. Or, an
operator could associate notes, for example, operational notes, with tailored
boundaries and waypoints.
Anytime the active route intersects with an object that has company
operational notes associated with it, FliteDeck Pro X displays a brown ball flag.
As with all operational notes, tapping a ball flag directs FliteDeck Pro X to
highlight the area and display additional information about the object.
FliteDeck Pro X also elevates operational note text into the Route List.
Company Comms
Company comms are supplemental communication frequencies and

information that an operator can associate with tailored boundaries, waypoints,
airports or as location-based frequencies.
When company comms are associated with an airport, FliteDeck Pro X
provides a couple of different ways to display the information.
One way to access company comms associated with an airport is by tapping
the Comms button at the bottom of a terminal chart display. Another way is by
tapping the Info/Wx button for the selected airport, and then selecting the
Communications flyout.
FliteDeck Pro X displays company frequencies for the selected airport,
organized by departure and arrival, as well as any remarks describing usages.

About Tailored Data
• Location-Based Frequencies
Location-based frequencies refer to company comms that an operator

associates with specific coordinates on the map.
FliteDeck Pro X displays location-based frequencies with brown text when you
zoom in on the map. The label identifies the call name or sign, primary
frequency with any secondary or alternate frequencies in parentheses.
When you tap the text, FliteDeck Pro X highlights the selection on the map and
displays a circle based on the radius value and displays any additional
company information.
Tailored Waypoints
Tailored waypoints are operator-defined points on the map that have company
information associated with them. FliteDeck Pro X displays tailored waypoints
as brown waypoint symbols.
When you tap a tailored waypoint, FliteDeck Pro X highlights the area on the
map and displays company information associated with that waypoint.
• Standard Waypoints and Fixes with Company Information

An operator can also associate information with standard waypoints or fixes,
as well. In that case, when you tap the standard waypoint or fix FliteDeck Pro X
displays the waypoint details and any company information associated with it.
Tailored Boundaries
Tailored boundaries can call out important areas on the enroute map. For
example, tailored boundaries can identify no-fly or no-op areas, escape zones,
critical terrain areas, and distance from shorelines.
Tailored boundaries can be fleet-specific and are categorized as either
reference or custom boundaries.
• A reference boundary is a boundary from the standard enroute database
that an operator can add tailored data.
• A custom boundary is an operator-defined area that an operator can add
company-specific data.
An operator can associate various types of information with tailored
boundaries, such as altitude limits, company comms, diversion targets, and
other operational notes.
Custom boundaries can be fleet-specific. In that case, the fleet-specific custom
boundary displays only when the associated fleet is selected in FliteDeck Pro
X.
When a route intersects with a tailored boundary with company specific
operational notes, FliteDeck Pro X displays a brown ball flag.Tapping the ball
flag displays the company-specific operational details.

64
About Tailored Data
Tailored Data: Segment-Based Escape Routes
Similar to adding operational notes to tailored boundaries, an operator can

also associate operational notes with a specific airway route segment, for
example, operational notes containing escape routes.
FIGURE 15: Displaying Segment-based Escape Route Details
TT
When a route segment has company-specific operational notes associated

with it, FliteDeck Pro X displays a brown ball flag along the route. Tapping the
brown ball flag directs FliteDeck Pro X to display the company-specific
operational details.
Tailored Data: Grid MORA Values

The Grid Minimum Off-Route Altitude (Grid MORA) provides terrain and man-
made structure clearance within the section outlined by latitude and longitude
lines on the enroute map in FliteDeck Pro X.
FIGURE 16: Grid MORA on the Enroute Map
The standard Grid MORA is derived by Jeppesen or provided by State authorities.

65
About Tailored Data
Using the Tailored Maps module in Ground Controls, operators can now
customize Grid MORA values by specifying an altitude at specific latitude and
longitude locations.
Grid MORA displays on the enroute map in FliteDeck Pro X as described below.
• Maroon Grid MORA text = standard values 10,000 feet and greater.
• Green Grid MORA text = standard values less than 10,000 feet.
• Crossed-out text next to brown Grid MORA text = tailored values.
Displaying Tailored Data Details
Company Comms
An operator can provide company-specific frequencies associated with an airport
as well as any remarks to better describe usage. There are several ways to
display company comms.
From the Terminal Charts view:

• Tap the Comms button at the bottom of the terminal view.
FliteDeck Pro X displays a Communications sheet with company frequencies
for the selected airport, as well as any notes describing usage.

Location-Based Frequencies
Location-based communication frequencies can be associated with various
features, such as transmitters, point objects (including airports), boundaries, and
routes or route segments. Location-based frequencies display on the map
regardless of fleet selection.
Location-based frequencies appear in brown text when you zoom in on the map.
The label on the map identifies the call name or call sign, primary frequency, with
any secondary/alternate frequency in parenthesis.
 To display more information about a location-based frequency
• Tap the brown location-based frequency from the map.

FliteDeck Pro X highlights the selection on the map and displays a circle based

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

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

80
when they hear radio calls for traffic that can be visualized near or along their
flight route.
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.

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.

81
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.

in is set to ON in global settings, FliteDeck Pro X provides an option to display
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, in-flight 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
• Enable a better visualization of weather cells moving across an airfield, or
understand changes in the METAR at the destination and neighboring airports

82
Text-based advisories include METAR and TAF reports. Graphical content

includes:
• Regional Radar
• CONUS Radar
• Turbulence
• Icing Severity
• Surface Conditions
• SIGMETs
In general, ADS-B weather layers follow the same established rules that internet
weather layers follow for both the display and status indication.
 To display ADS-B weather:
1. Switch Enable ADS-B Wx to ON in FliteDeck Pro X global settings.

2. Tap the Wx button from the enroute map.
3. Tap the ADS-B tab and select the weather layers you want to display.
About the ADS-B Weather Legend

FliteDeck Pro X displays the legend for the selected weather layers. If you are
viewing ADS-B weather, for example, that is the legend that displays when you
tap the legend button.
 To view the legend for selected ADS-B weather layers:
• While viewing ADS-B weather, tap the Legend (i) button.

ADS-B Weather Considerations

• The display of ADS-B weather layers is independent of the display of Internet
weather layers.
• METARs and TAFs are received automatically and include an ADS-B label
next to the weather age when viewing airport weather.
• When connected to an ADS-B device, ADS-B weather automatically updates.
There is no need for you to switch the Auto Update ON from the Wx popover.
• As with internet weather, areas not receiving weather data displays Wx Not
Available hatching.

Displaying Taxiway Exit Distances

When you are receiving AMM data, FliteDeck Pro X provides you with an option to display distances from
the runway threshold to taxiway exits.
Landing distances are dynamically calculated values from the runway threshold to the point that the
taxiway exit line departs the runway center line. These values are for reference purposes only.

For those using Airport Moving Map (AMM) and ADS-B, FliteDeck Pro X displays ground traffic on AMM
at the selected airport. With ADS-B traffic on AMM you can:
• Reduce the likelihood of non-aircraft ground collisions, by increasing crew awareness of

approaching traffic or parked vehicles nearby, that could be impacted when the aircraft moves.
• Support safe taxi maneuvers by better anticipating actions of other aircraft (e.g. in the same line
of traffic awaiting takeoff, or aircraft that just landed and may exit the runway at high speed).

NOTE: FliteDeck Pro X provides ADS-B traffic information on AMM to help

maintain the highest level of situational awareness during taxi operations.
This functionality is not to be used as the sole basis of traffic avoidance.
ADS-B Traffic Symbology

The same traffic symbology that displays on the enroute map also displays on
AMM with an additional symbol for moving ground vehicles.
• Traffic Symbol - When heading information is available, FliteDeck Pro X

displays an ownship symbol to depict traffic. When heading information is
not available, FliteDeck Pro X displays a diamond to depict traffic.
• Call Sign - FliteDeck Pro X displays the call sign or tail number of traffic
when it is available from the ADS-B broadcast
• Ground Vehicles - FliteDeck Pro X displays ground vehicles with heading
information on the airport map.

107
Displaying Wingspan Restrictions
For operators using AMM and subscribing to the feature, FliteDeck Pro X can display wingspan restric-
tions specific to a fleet to increase situational awareness and reduce the likelihood of taxiway incursions.
About Wingspan Source
Published source specifies wingspan values in terms of feet or meters, or by a specific model and
series, for example, A350-900 or 747-800.
The values can also differ within a given model, for example B737, that has a mix configuration of
aircraft with winglets or no winglets (and type of winglets) that can impact the wingspan value.
An operator determines fleet names. An example name could be 767 ETOPS vs.767 non-ETOPS and
the aircraft that are assigned to that Fleet will inherit
attributes such as ETOPS ring values, airport designation, or categorization as defined for that fleet.
However, the restriction values on AMM would still be determined by the actual aircraft selected by the
pilot within that fleet.
