Narrative:

Departed teb runway 24 on teb 5 SID. I read SID instructions on electronic flight bag (efb) and briefed first officer (co-captain) before engine start. I misread the text instructions and set the heading bug for 220 degrees for a turn required after 800 ft AGL. After takeoff; out of 800 ft I stated a left turn to 220 degrees. Shortly after which departure asked for an immediate turn to 310 degrees because we were close to ewr's airspace. I had enlarged the screen on the efb so I could read the text portion of the departure and consequently didn't display the plan view which obviously showed a west departure. Then I misread the text 280 degrees heading and entered 220 degrees. I have flown this departure before and realized ewr's proximity but just made a simple mistake. The co-pilot didn't think the left turn after takeoff was correct but hadn't recently reviewed the chart and couldn't say definitely what the correct heading was. I don't think I would have made this error with paper plates.

Original NASA ASRS Text

Title: GIV-SP FLT CREW TURNS AND CLBS ON WRONG HEADING ON THE TEB 5 DEP. DEP CONTROL NOTIFIES THE FLT CREW AND ISSUES AN IMMEDIATE CORRECTION.

Narrative: DEPARTED TEB RWY 24 ON TEB 5 SID. I READ SID INSTRUCTIONS ON ELECTRONIC FLT BAG (EFB) AND BRIEFED FO (CO-CAPT) BEFORE ENGINE START. I MISREAD THE TEXT INSTRUCTIONS AND SET THE HEADING BUG FOR 220 DEGS FOR A TURN REQUIRED AFTER 800 FT AGL. AFTER TKOF; OUT OF 800 FT I STATED A L TURN TO 220 DEGS. SHORTLY AFTER WHICH DEP ASKED FOR AN IMMEDIATE TURN TO 310 DEGS BECAUSE WE WERE CLOSE TO EWR'S AIRSPACE. I HAD ENLARGED THE SCREEN ON THE EFB SO I COULD READ THE TEXT PORTION OF THE DEP AND CONSEQUENTLY DIDN'T DISPLAY THE PLAN VIEW WHICH OBVIOUSLY SHOWED A W DEP. THEN I MISREAD THE TEXT 280 DEGS HEADING AND ENTERED 220 DEGS. I HAVE FLOWN THIS DEP BEFORE AND REALIZED EWR'S PROXIMITY BUT JUST MADE A SIMPLE MISTAKE. THE CO-PLT DIDN'T THINK THE L TURN AFTER TKOF WAS CORRECT BUT HADN'T RECENTLY REVIEWED THE CHART AND COULDN'T SAY DEFINITELY WHAT THE CORRECT HEADING WAS. I DON'T THINK I WOULD HAVE MADE THIS ERROR WITH PAPER PLATES.
