Smart glide interconnect/wiring

[Mike 1234]

I’m looking for the smart glide switch interconnect/wiring diagram. I used the search function but didn’t see any reference to it. I’m wiring the G3X touch with the GEA 24 and 507 auto pilot. Can anyone point me to those drawings? Thanks.

Referring to IM rev AU pg 26-6.
You can use any Discrete input 1-4 or GP1-7 to activate the Smart Glide function.
For configuration see pg 30-207/208.

Good luck

Thanks for the reply. I was looking for the wiring of the switch itself. It’s a backlit switch with five terminals. One goes to a discreet input on the GEA from what I can see in the manual, another to ground. That leaves 3 more for the lighting I think.

To clarify, you're using the Garmin Smart Glide switch?

Yes, correct.

You can also activate from the screen without a switch in case you weren't aware of that.

I´m not familiar with the switch itself, however with five terminals and one light
and a push button switch you will have the following.

Two terminals for the light +12V and GND. If LED light check polarity.
The other three will be the switch, Common/ Normally open and Normally closed. Check with Ohm meter.

Good luck

Thanks, I was unsure why they would include the N/C position on the switch, maybe just a generic switch?

Thanks Wait, I saw that. The owner requested the switch option.
