On a similar subject: How do you get the 430 family into setup mode? I know
it's a matter of holding something down as you power it up, but I haven't
been able to find out just what.

Hold the enter button as you turn the system on. Good luck and write
down all your old settings before you change to the new.

...what Vincent is stating is especially true if the 430/530 is coupled to
an autopilot of similar boxes. There are a ton of settings internal to the
Garmin's that maybe reset accidentally. Get a notebook and scan through the
many pages of set-up and note down all the settings..... Been there got the
T-shirt with all the catsup on it for not doing this when the unit was
upgraded. Even the licensed shop could not get the right settings back
properly. I had to go to Garmin, talk to a very savvy engineer, to get the
settings back into the 430 so it would talk to my S-Tec A/P correctly....

I don't intend to change any of the settings on mine at the moment. Still,
writing them all down seems like a very good idea. I've had a couple of ham
radios that I've done that with because they've been known for losing their
internal settings should the power spike at engine start or the like.
I suspect that, while Garmin may not know how to set up the 430W to talk to
my Zodiac's TruTrak Digiflight IIVSG, TruTrak probably does. Still, I'd like
to avoid the necessity. There's also an Aspen PFD in my future, though not
for a while yet.
At some point, though, I plan to add a connection from the 430 to my 496 for
flight plan crossfiling, and that will need to be enabled via setup.
