795 Won't Listen to the GTN650
Can the 795/6 GPS repeat GTN650 flight plans/Direct To/RNAV displays?
I'd dearly love to use the GPS as a larger screen presentation of the 650. This capability was available (and I used it a lot!) between a 695 and a 430W, though you'd have to install an inline switch to break the 232 connection so the GPS could operate independently.
I've run a 232 Out from the GTN to the 795's Rx In, configured Aviation In/NMEA out and the 795 reports "disconnected". The 795 says that connection and setting should import flight plans, but no joy. (NMEA out from the 795 goes nowhere, BTW, since the 650 won't listen to non-cert gear.)
Anyone having success repeating a GTN onto a 7XX?
