DEMO MODE & SETUP
A great way to become familiar with all the features of the KMD 250 is to
use it’s built in Demo Mode. When the KMD 250 is in the Demo Mode, it
performs as if it is receiving adequate sensor signals to use the various
functions. Units without the optional internal GPS, a pre-programmed
flight plan determined by the database type being used can be navi-
gated. Units containing the optional internal GPS can navigate any user
programmed waypoints or flight plans.
In order for the KMD 250 to function in the Demo Mode it must be used
in conjunction with a product such as the Commander 2900 from Lone
Star Aviation.

The KMD 250 is automatically put into Demo Mode when it is used with
a Commander 2900. In addition, an authorized Honeywell Service
Center may also arrange for you to put the KMD 250 into Demo Mode by
grounding the appropriate pin at the back of the unit while it is removed
from the aircraft and is connected to an appropriate power supply. The
KMD 250 must never be put into the Demo Mode when it is installed in
the aircraft.
