I was wondering if anyone out there with the subject panel combo see the result of the self check at start up of the 430 on the Hx screen. The 430 checks lists:

LCDI=Half Left
LFLG=Out of View
VCDI=-Half Up
VFLG=Out of View
To/From=135

I seem to have all the parameters as indicated but I do not see the VCDI half up. When I have gone out and loaded in a GPS approach on the 430 I do get both needles and it seems to be tracking ok. (I do not fly IFR...yet. Still working toward that)

Why wouldn't I see the VCDI half up??

Thanks

Mine did the same thing. Noting at the startup screen. I no longer have them in the plane but recall it had to do with wiring and corresponding setup.
I flew IFR routinely with the units as setup.
Do not archive.

I have the GRT HX with a GNS 430W. You don't get the message, but I assume that they wouldn't work together if it didn't check.
I have shot ILS and LPV approaches using them both together, and it works fine. Lots of button pushing, however.

Thanks John, I have practiced ILS and GPS approach and get needles. I can
fly the needles right down to the runway, so assume it's working ok. Just
wondering if it's ok to assume with that type of real world test without
having seen the needles at the startup of the system. Plan to call GRT and
see what they say about the self test.
Thanks
Chris

I have the HX and a Garmin 420W (no ILS/Localizer) as well as an SL-30 for VOR/ILS. On boot up my HX passes the 420's test (half left, half up) as long as the HX is set to gps for its nav source. If it's set to nav then it shows whatever the SL-30 is sending out. I think it boots up with whatever its last setting was.
