Subject: | Help with Gns 480 Century HSI |
The MX20 has a serial port definition that needs to be configured for
altitude input. I had a similar problem when I swapped out my GX60 for my
420W...the altitude signal needs to come directly as serial input either
from the encoder or transponder (mine's from the transponder).previously the
GX60 would do it but the 420W did not...caused a minor rewiring change. You
may have a similar situation...
As for the CDI, there are essentially two wires that provide the L/R signal
to the NSD1000.hence the 'did it ever work' question.
I have all of the wiring diagrams for everything except the CNX-80 - GNS480.
If I can get the installation manual for that, I can tell you what pins to
shoot for continuity.

Dave,
I have a similar setup.NSD1000 MX20 SL70 PSE7000MS( SL15Equiv) - but Garmin
420 instead..
Let me look through my stuff and give you a couple of things to check out...
Meanwhile, did it ever work properly? If not - there will be a different
set of things to check..

I have a CNX-80 - GNS480 witht he following other units. Century 1000 HSI,
MX20, SL15.
I had the GNS 480 software upgrade, since then I am not getting any CDI
function on the HSI. the VDI etc, still works, but not CDI.
I have checked my setup and all seems OK to me - but I may be missing
something.
Also, Altitude does not display on MX 20 - have an SL70 remote transponder -
output from GNS 480 is showing correct altitude.
Any GNS 480 experts, help would be appreciated. Avionics shop where I had
the upgrade done is not homebuilder friendly.

Subject: | Re: ADS-B Transceiver... |
Hi Guys,
I already have all the equipment I need for ADS-B Out for my Glasair
III. But it seems that in its rush to get the regulation out to the
public, the FAA did not provide any path for Experimental aircraft to
install/approve ADBS-B.
The FAA has published an advisory circular on the subject (AC 20-165)
that states ALL ADBS-B installations must be approved before use. It
then goes on to state that approval requires an STC. It also broadly
hints that all equipment must be TSO'ed. You all must know that STC's do
not apply to us. To add further confusion, I was told by my local FSDO
that all STC's for approval were not being accepted and that the only
way to get approval was from the original aircraft manufacturer. I asked
the FSDO if we (the home builder) were considered the manufacturer and
was told the FAA felt that it was the kit manufacturer. I called the
EAA, they were clueless.
So, it seems that you (or we) can't get there from here. Any one have
any ideas?

Yep. Install it like you want it .... and ask forgiveness later. The
only thing I'd put into the 'must do' category is to make sure the
transmitted information being broadcast is accurate. There are already
a lot of ADS-B installations in experimentals.

To me, the section 1-1(b) says enough to move ahead. If you get it installed,
and working properly, you're unlikely to have any worries. And the benefits of
it are many.

Definitely make sure your transmitted info is set up correctly. Other than that,
you'll want it to squawk the same code as your transponder....and if you have
a gtx330 you're golden. Likely the same with gtx327.

Garmin 530W, Garmin 330 transponder updated for ADBS-B Out, and a RMI
microencoder/air data unit. All are TSO'ed except the RMI air data
system.
I still believe it has to be approved because it transmits position data
to ATC. We just can't install and turn it on, at least that's what the
FSDO tells me. There is no in flight approved testing procedure in place
yet, and no one has the ground testing equipment to verify the
transmitted data blocks around here.

Another example of the FAA left hand not having a clue what the right
hand is doing. Your transponder and GPS are TSO. That means the position
information complies with the requirements. Your air data system has to
meet a different regulation, and I assume it does if it passes an IFR
static system check.
Too many FAA inspectors have no experience/training on experimental
aircraft side of the house, and rather than linking you up with someone
who does, try to bluff their way into making the problem go away.
Just read an idiot article today on the "new" air traffic system that
once again says ADSB/Next Gen will replace radar. If that were true, we
wouldn't be required to have either Mode A/C transponders or Mode S in
addition to UAT. The FAA wouldn't have gone to the totally stupid dual
frequency system. Also article said lots about airlines not wanting to
spend the money, without one mention of GA and who pays for that. Grump,
grump.
Maybe Das Fed (if he isn't too busy stomping out office brushfires) can
shine some light on the subject for us and send something off to the
author of the AC to remind them they need to deal with experimental
installs as well if they want the air traffic system to retain
integrity. Not that I want more fed involvement, but really is necessary
on something that affects all aircraft.

But all over that document it says "a position source meeting the minimum performance
requirements of any revision of TSO-C129, TSO-C145, TSO-C146, or TSO-C196...)
So it says all over that it needs to meet the performance reqs but doesn't say
it has to BE TSO'd. I won't go on further other than to say if it doesn't make
you comfortable than don't do it. I doubt in today's financial climate they'll
be equipping ramp checkers with the tools to test and verify the parameters,
but I guess you never know. There are many people using such equipment today
though, and the AC makes some awesome points. Some of the biggest things are
single-entry-point code entry and things like that. So those things would
be more worrysome because if you aren't squawking properly, then THAT is something
that may be noticed.

Subject: | Re: ADS-B Transceiver... |
I think it's best for Experimental aviations future to install the stuff, do it
to certified standards so it's done right and works properly/perfectly, and to
NOT spend your time drawing attention by asking them (das fed) the questions
in the first place. As we all know, there are too many who don't understand
experimentals, and beyond that, different FSDO's interpret things differently.
Many many questions can have a variety of answers. So long as that's the case,
sometimes we're better off just doing things right and not inviting regulation
by asking for clarification that could never be achieved without drafting
newer, deeper reaching, regulation. It's tough enough as it is. ADS-B in isn't
rocket science and it's not complicated to get a working system that will
give you good traffic info and report your precise location exactly. Just read
that AC and make sure you work to that level of accuracy and operability.

Subject: | Re: adjusting cooling baffles |
Here is a picture of the "cowl insullation material" stuck to my #1
cylinder. Have 3 degree higher on #3 vs #1 - this weekend at 97F OAT - #3
running at 354F - Oil temp doesn't go over 185F winter or summer.
Doesn't take much tape to affect #3 temps.
