Has anyone had experience of hooking up a 296 to GNS430?



 



Evidently using the "Aviation In" feature on the 296 and the auto crosslink

feature on the GNS430 the Flight plan and user wpt's will be transferred

automatically.



 



The hook up appears to be via the GNS430 RS232 output port 1 feeding the

Com1 296 data in (yellow wire).  The Garmin Installation Manual figure 4-11

only shows a hook for the 195 and Pilot III.



 



So I would like to see if anyone has got this setup working.  The terrain

data from the 296 is better than the 430 and it is WAAS enabled.



 



Thanks 



 



Robert
