Re: Horizon EFIS set up

When you connect the ARINC module to a port, the "expander" serial pins 8 and 9 on the power/serial connector of the ARINC module become a pass-thru port. In the older display software versions, these pins replaced the original port (6 in your case) but it was still called the same port (P...

Re: Green text upper left hand side - what is it telling me?

"TRAFFIC" means it has traffic input from any source. Some inputs tell us if the service is unavailable so it may change to yellow and say the traffic data is getting old or unavailable. "ADS-B #" means there is an ADS-B input and is usually shown instead of just "TRAFFIC&qu...

Re: Navworx 600 + GNS480 + HXR

The ADS600 "EXP" model only has one display output. The "B" model has multiple outputs for "Display" and "TIS". If I recall correctly, the "B" model can be configured to send "TIS-A" data to the Garmin and "Traffic Alert" data to ...

Re: Navworx 600 + GNS480 + HXR

The 480 is probably connected with the TIS-A Traffic output. This is an older, simpler Garmin traffic-only format that works fine at 9600 baud. It's limited to something like 8 targets and can't show call signs. It doesn't transfer weather. The EFIS can also receive this format when configured as GT...

Re: Lightspeed EI - Timing Advance Output with L2e

You need to set the EIS1 Aux6 Scale Factor to 25 for the integer mode (no decimal place). The EFIS doesn't automatically assign the input to any bar graphs or data boxes for you. You have to decide where and how you want to display the advance (dial, bar graph, data box) and then configure one of th...

Re: Aero Safety Systems AH502 (Annunciator) Connections with HXr

We don't provide power to the warning light output. It is an Open/Ground output just like the G3X and it can handle over 32V. Normally you would connect a light with power on one end and the other end of the light would go to the EFIS warning light pin so when the EFIS grounds it, the circuit is com...

Re: Aero Safety Systems AH502 (Annunciator) Connections with HXr

1. You need a port that can be configured for 115200 baud and output "G3X Text". Usually this means it has to be on its own port (nothing on the input), however, some things like ADS-B receivers also run at 115200 baud. If you have a 115200 ADS-B input that has no output, you could put the...

Re: ELT RS232 CONNECTIVITY

You would have to use the "Autopilot (Aviation)" output. You can use one of the SPC ports for this output but it won't be sent directly by the Safe-Fly so there's no reason to do that unless you're out of ports on the HXr. The EFIS would send the Autopilot Aviation data to the Safe-Fly and...

Re: SUMP TANK - Fuel Sensor Compatibility - HXr

There is no documentation on the outputs. The only output that is clearly documented is a full or empty alarm, not a level. You can connect the alarm power output to an analog input as a simple active/inactive indication. It looks like you would have to configure it so the built-in alarm is ON when ...
