=EF=BBHello all,
Well, I am get close to finishing my panel upgrade. Center stack is finishe
d which now includes the relocated constant speed controller and the IFR nav
igator.
The Garmin GPS175 is working nicely, communicating with both my Dynon Skyvie
w 10=9D display and the recently installed Garmin G5. The G5 serves as
a backup to the Dynon.
I was initially concerned that the three boxes wouldn=99t play well to
gether as different ARINC 429 setting are specified for each piece of equipm
ent. For ARINC to function properly the transmitting device can have only o
ne protocol set which must be acceptable to the receiving units.
Fortunately, after discussions with Dynon support and testing the G5 on a fr
iend=99s plane I was able to confirm they units could in fact be confi
gured to work properly. Essentially, the Dynon needed to be set to =9C
low speed=9D for data as that is the only speed the G5 can accept. Th
e G5 on the other hand was set to accept GAMA 3 data which the Dynon require
s in order to graphically display flight plans, holds, procedure turns, etc.
The additional data set contained in GAMA 3 (vs GAMA 1) is extraneous to t
he G5 as it does not have the capability to display the information and appa
rently disregards it.
Now, to finish the main panel and put the rest of the plane back together.
