    3.7.3 Installation Adjustment The SI-11X needs to be adjusted to the navigation receiver or GPS navigator that it’s interfaced to. Many modern receivers have configuration pages that help in adjustment of the CDI. Garmin GNS4XX/5XX for example have a configuration page to drive the needles to Full Left, Right, Up and Down that can assist in the adjustment.
