Default install manual

Anyone have an installation manual available? Planning for an upgrade.

I would like a link to the GPS 175/GNX 375 installation manual also. The only ones available on the Garmin site are STC, AFCM updates, Pilot's guide and Maintenance with ICAs. The last one is somewhat helpful. But I have a unit on the way now and want to start the harness and like to know what kind of installation supplies needed and which antennas are approved.

Jim

I have a unit on order, and before I do my phase 1 upgrade, I will try to ground test it with a legacy Dynon system...and a Skyview system, and perhaps an AFS system...if buds at the home drome will let me experiment...to see if the serial output will provide nav and steering commands to the legacy system, and how the 429 interfaces are with the other two systems.
Cheers,

Watching with interest because if it works with the D100 this means I could potentially replace my 327, GDL 82 and GDL 39 with this one box and still retain the D100 CDI, and still have weather and charts on my 796. I have the HS74 control panel and assume that my trutrak Gemini AP would also interface with the 375.
Obviously need to get smarter on this.

So the question in my mind is , when will the GTN650 get upgraded? With the new units being lighter and less power hungry including the ADSB IN/OUT, one would think its only a matter of time for the GTN675 NAV/COM/WAAS/ABSB! The line starts behind me fellas.

Anybody have a working G3X Touch and GPS175 install? My understanding is that the GPS175 is a standalone unit, and that flight plans / changes entered in the G3X will not cross-pollinate over to the GPS175 - is this correct?

Hello maus92,

When you are entering/changing flight plans on the GDU 4XX using internal flight planning, the GPS 175, GNC 355, and GNX 375 will automatically receive the flight plan and remain synchronized with the G3X Touch system just like a GTN does with recent software.

OK great. Was talking to the Stein Air boys about options, and it seems the GPS175 is the way to go for me. For clarification's sake, I would do the actually planning on FF or GP, then BT the plan to the GDU460 once in the plane. I'm *hoping* that once the plan is active / downloaded into the G3X, it gets replicated in the GPS175.

Default GNX375

Quick question. So will a flight plan entered into ForeFlight be able to load onto the GNX375 via Bluetooth.
Thanks

Hello Charley,

Yes, that should work fine.

Thanks,
Steve
