5.5.7 GPS/FMS Installation-Specific Issues

Garmin Installation—Some Garmin units provide two RS-232 formats for GPS data. One is an
"aviation" format. The other is an RS232 "plotting" format. The "aviation" format provides a "King"
format 9600 baud output at a higher repetition rate and is the preferred RS-232 output. Consult the
specific Garmin GPS installation manual for full details.
Northstar Installations—Many Northstar units have a hidden setup screen to change
configuration parameters to make it difficult to change in flight. See the Northstar installation
manual for the specific codes to enter to set this up correctly.
Trimble 2000A Installations—This unit has a hidden setup screen documented in the installation
manual to change configuration parameters to make it difficult to change in flight. See the Trimble
Installation manual for the specific codes to enter.
