| Subject: | GPS Serial Data to Garmin GTX-327 Transponder |
Listers,
I've tried sending two different sources of NMEA 0183 data at 4800/9600/19200/38400/57600
baud rates to my Garmin GTX-327 on both serial input ports 1 (db25
Pin 2) and port 2 (db25 pin 19), and configured for "GPS" input. But I don't
get anything on the GTX-327 serial input test display. I have been successful
at getting AirData Z-format from the GRT EFIS at 9600 baud into either of the
GTX-327 serial ports, so the ports are good. The NMEA 0183 data registers correctly
on other devices reading it so the GPS serial output seem fine. The GTX-327
just won't seem to see the GPS data for some reason.
Am I doing something wrong? Has anyone else tried this successfully?
Thanks!
Matt Dralle

Hi Matt,
Don't do it in "test" mode. It should be 4800 (IIRC) from the GRT, and then
setup the input on the GTX RS232 port. If you turn both on in normal mode
you should see the PressAlt on the GTX327. It's worked for us hundreds of
times!
Cheers,
Stein

| Subject: | Double Sided Tape used to bend Trim Tab ends |
Greetings:
The only Double Sided Tape I could find at the hardware store was Scotch Brand
Double sided tape - looks like regular Scotch tape used on paper, except it is
sticky on BOTH sides. It seems that this tape might be a little to fragile to
help hold the wood forming blocks from moving the Trim Tab Skin, while bending
the Tabs. Have not tried it yet = trying to minimize my mistakes.
Any suggestions: What TAPE did you use and where did you buy it ???
Thanks, Garey

I used "carpet tape" from Home Depot. Really thin, double-sided, strong
sticky. Worked well.
