Hi,
I bought my RV-10 about 18 months ago with 2xAF-5600 and an Avidyne IFD540 Navigator. I had noticed that I have to manually sequence missed approaches which have an altitude restriction and recently figured out (from an IFD forum) that the reason is that my IFD is not getting a baro altitude and I am trying to figure out what I need to do to fix it.
It looks like the IFD can consume the baro altitude via ARINC (label 204) but I saw something in the AFS forum that indicates that the AFS unit does not transmit baro altitude via ARINC. Is that correct?
Any recommendations on the best way to provide the IFD with baro altitude in my setup would be much appreciated.
Thanks.
