Dan, thanks for the link.

"Dog house" ordered this morning. I will be glad to get and install it to (hopefully) close another chapter on ADS-B installation. I'm not into drama...I just want it to work.

Report after install please!
 
Jaws,
Let us know how the reinstall and functionality checkout go!
The rest of us are interested in what functionality was added / promised but still missing.

Thanks!

Ordered mine as well. When does the new software come out?

Ordered mine as well. Im also adding wire to accomodate a recently new to me GTX 327. Does anyone know where to find the navworx "console" to be able to reconfigure the 600exp when i get this done.? I didnt find it on the navworx site. Im removing the transmonSPE. Not sure why, it seem to work fine.

You should be able to use the iOS app to configure it via WiFi. (Is there an Android app? Never looked .. ) My 600EXP is connected to my 327, no problems works great.

Not to be a downer, but, when you all ordered the gps unit, will there be a hard copy document included from the FAA that states the unit will now really, really be in 2020 compliance?
Or is there a promise ?

Fully appreciate your concerns. I waited a long time too. Dallas Avionics is listed as having 264 employees. Can't imagine they need a major size problem like that. Not sure how the FAA will know, but I plan to take pics and have paperwork ready if asked.

All just verbal across the counter at OSH. They said they were awaiting FAA approval before the "dog house" is mfg. Said it would have a SIL 3 when the 7.0 software was loaded. That should be good to go for 2020 in an experimental. " He said" . Fool me once , fool me twice, I've sill got one more to go!!!

The console is a chunk of software from NavWorx - you connect some wires to a DB9 RS-232 connector to a computer with a serial port and configure it remotely...wiring diagram in the manual...might be different for the EXP boxes!

Need more help - let me know...I have this wired in mine...

The 600EXP uses a downloaded block of software that was found on the Navworx site the first time I did this. After downloading it specifically for the 600EXP it connects up with that unit via the Wi Fi and allows the set up to be done. I was thinking it was called " UAT Console EXP installer" I could be wrong. I'm currently looking on my older laptop for that software . Someone said it was available on an apple app not sure about android. I did however find a UAT config app on android but chose not to pay $10 for it. Still looking.
