The GNS430W has two power inputs (on pins P4001/19 & 20 and P4001/15 & 72) each with their own 5A fuse/CB. The installation manual says Power Input 1 (P4001/19 & 20) provides power for all functions of the unit except COM transmitter and NAV & G/S Superflag outputs, but makes no reference to Power Input 2.
Is Power Input 2 simply a secondary/redundant feed for the unit or does it have some other purpose?
If it is just a secondary feed, why, when the manual recommends all power inputs be connected to the same bus, would I have it on a separate CB (other than the ol' redundancy thing)?
