| Subject: | Help: ADI II to GNS430 |
I've got a TruTrak ADI II connected to a GNS430 (non-WAAS). Normally they
communicate fine.
But I=92m having occasional trouble switching the ADI II between the TRACK
and
NAV modes. Because the non-waas 430 does not fly the holds and procedure
turns, I need to switch to TRACK to fly those =85 and then back to NAV when
I
head inbound.
After using the NAV to fly to the intial fix, I switch to TRACK to fly the
hold. When I tell the 430 that we=92re going to the runway (and I get a
magenta line), sometimes I can switch back to NAV =85 and sometimes I canno
t.
I=92ve checked for a bad connection on the ground. I brought up the 430 to
the
Instrument Panel Self-Test page (pressing ENT only once). I pushed the ADI
right button twice and got the NAV to come on. Then I wiggled the RS232 wir
e
between the 430 and the ADI - and the NAV light was rock-solid. So it
doesn't look like I've got a short.
When I call both TruTrak and Garmin, they are suspicious of the others box
.
So I=92m in the middle.
If anyone has an ADI II to GNS430 (non-WAAS) configuration, I=92d appreciat
e
knowing if you have similar problems ' or if you can reliably switch betw
een
NAV and TRACK.
Thanks.

Unfortunately due to the economy and the fact that all my plane building
dollars went to marry off my daughter, I have an RV-10 emanage section for
sale. I have had it for several years and it is 98% complete. If anyone is
interested or knows of someone interested, I can send pictures off line.
Price is negotiable. I just need to pass this on to someone that wants a
head start. I live in the Tampa Florida area. Contact me at
