Configuring the above on an dual screen IFR RV14
At the moment I am unable to resolve two issues during the initial system configuration.
The GTN and the PFD are unable to find the 345R and the Com 2. The Com 2 is a non Garmin Trig TY 91 with a Control Head. The ADSB element of the 345R is correctly configured and appropriately displayed with a green tick. The transponder and Com 2 have red crosses.
The radio and Transponder are wired as per the appropriate LRU pages in the Garmin G3x manual Ver M. Have not reviewed N yet. The Com is appropriately wired via a GMA 245 and linked to the GDU as per the Trig Garmin interface instructions for both the 245 and the 460. Nothing however is displayed on the Com 2 position on the RHS of the 460. The radio Tx and receives and selects correctly via the 245. The 650coms works and displays correctly.
Re the 345R, This has been software updated via the USB interface with Windows 7 and configured as best I can utilising the Garmin PC based software. As a experimental builder installing a certified transponder I have found this interface difficult to utilise with little guidance apart from the single page in the G3x installation guidance manual. There is more info on the web for the 345 than the 345R, hence is it possible to give further guidance for the 345R initial configuration for installation into an experimental G3x setup? The 460 set up gives some install elements for the 345R on the Transponder page but still does not display the 345R correctly. The Garmin PC based software only refers to the 345 and not the R?
I will eventually configure the AT1 ADSB to perform traffic deconfliction incl of FLARM rather than the 345Rs ADSB feed because of the limitation on a single ADSB feed to the 460? Have also tried to configure just through the 460 and leave the 650xi Ethernet connection off utilising the 232 connections to the GDU 25 and 460? All software latest version apart from April 21 460 update
Any help appreciated .
