Are these updates for the GNS480 as well?

I'm curious how the ADS-B compliance update will be implemented. Will this be through additional data packets on the existing Aviation Out serial data stream? And if so, will there be some setup option that enables the new packets?
Talking to a technician who had the text of the service bulletin, it wasn't completely clear.

I have only one serial output pin from my 430W. This is connected to an input on my Skyview display. My hope was that I could use this serial out to connect to the Trig transponder input pin.

If the ADS-B out data compliant data stream requires a seperate serial port output from the 430W, that means a new pin in that high density connector buried in the back of the panel.

You will use one of the serial ports and there is one more option in set up called "ADS-B" that then pushes those compliant packets out.. It is not a few more packets in "aviation out" that you already have hooked up...

PS. 430W has 4 serial outs.. so all you may have to do is add one more wire..

Revisiting an old thread. It's been a while since these software updates came out. For those of us with GNS-480 boxes, is there any news on a planned update to make the position output ADS-B compliant?

Question 480 Update

''For those of us with GNS-480 boxes, is there any news on a planned update to make the position output ADS-B compliant?''
------------------------------
I know a friend who is waiting patiently for it to come out so he can order what's required to be ADS-B compliant..

Soon He hopes..

According to a discussion on the GNS 480 Yahoo Group, a software update is suppose to be available later this year. That discussion was at least 6 months ago, but it quoted statements a Garmin product manager.

I'm hoping it's true. I'll upgrade my GTX330 to ES as soon as the 480 supports ADSB.
