To transfer flight plans from ForeFlight to an Avidyne IFD440/540, first, ensure the IFD540 has a firmware version of at least 10.2. With the iPad connected to the Avidyne, view the firmware version under More > Devices > Avidyne IFD > Software Version.
Once the firmware version is confirmed, perform the following to transfer a flight plan to the IFD440/540:
STEP 1. Go to the Maps view within ForeFlight Mobile.
STEP 2. Tap on the FPL button.
STEP 3. Select Edit in the FPL drawer.
STEP 4. Enter a flight plan into the FPL editor.
STEP 5. Tap the Send To button in the lower right corner of the FPL view.
STEP 6. Tap the ((+)) PANEL button while connected to the Avidyne.
STEP 7. Tap Send To Panel to send a route to the Avidyne.
STEP 8. On the IFD440/540, a "Route Upload Ready" notification appears. Select the ROUTE page.
STEP 9. Select the route in the list. The route may not be at the top of the list since routes are organized alphabetically by the "From" waypoint.
STEP 10. Choose the ACTIVATE ROUTE button on the left side of the screen. Confirm the route if a pop-up is presented. The chosen route is then activated on the FPL page.
