Artificial Horizon popup blocks 740 screen Modified By patrickhoyt on 10/9/2020 5:49:02 PM

I'm getting an Artificial Horizon popup on my new 740b. Only happens when I'm in my airplane, and I can't duplicate the issue at home.

When it pops up, it obscures about a third of the screen, which makes the 740 much less usable in flight.

I can't find where I can turn that off.

Help....?

I can't help you turn it off, but mine does that when the AHRS is out of calibration, or otherwise indicating a attitude as shown. If you're using an AHRS device, make sure it's caliibrated to straight and level. Not sure what to do if you're really at that attitude. I think it should disappear by itself once you either reset the AHRS to straight and level, or you actually get back to straight and level.
