hey
just got my transponder Garmin 327 and have to install an altitude encoder. Where
have people installed this?? Does it go behind the inst panel or is it plumbed
some where else?

Hi Chris,
I didn't have a separate encoder since I used the Dynon output for this
function.
I don't think it matters where you put the encoder. You probably need to
connect it to your static air system so it can sense altitude reasonably
correctly.

I installed mine on the floor support for the baggage compartment behind the passenger's
seat.
Used same CB as the Transponder. Plumbed off the static line for pressure.

Make sure you have easy access to the encoder and mount it so that it can
be removed for your VFR transponder / encoder test every two years. My
avionics guy grumbles at me every two years.

The altitude encoder can go almost anywhere behind the firewall. It must be
connected to the static air system, as does your airspeed indicator and
altimeter.
For these reasons, it is usually placed somewhere behind the panel, and near
the altimeter and airspeed indicator. It's a good idea for it to be
accessible, since it must be calibrated every two years by someone approved to
do this at a repair station. If it's hard to reach, they may think unkind
thoughts.
To be legal, it should be calibrated before initial use.

thanks gang
I saw a photo off macs machine.com of his encoder and will put it under the dash
as well. I will have the Dynon 100 in place but was told by my C of A inspector,
that our Aussie rules would not allow the D100 to be wired directly to the
Transponder. a $200 bummer. Since he was going to be signing off on the plane
I guess I should fit one..
