Folks,
I'm just under 31 hours in to my test flying and have been trying to make sure everything in the panel is working properly.
I'm trying to get the SL30 to power the S-TEC-30/GPSS autopilot (through the Century NSD1000 HSI) - and it doesn't seem to want to play. In the test mode, I can get the to/from, left/right, up/down, and NAV/GS flags to do what they're supposed to so I'm pretty confident that the wiring is OK. I can also tune in and hear the morse for the VOR station and verify the correct radial (with another NAV radio that isn't hooked to the autopilot) and the SL30 correctly displays to/from station and radial on it's face - So I'm thinking that the radio is working OK.
Obviously, I need to break out the user manual for this thing - and maybe brush up on my VOR navigation techniques (but I was able to verify station and radial with another NAV radio). I think that I may also need to call Garmin/UPSAT/Apollo/IIMorrow tech support...after I read the manual.
What do you think - what are the chances that my radio display output is hosed? It needs to go back for the SB fix anyway - so I may just bite the bullet.....
Thanks,
Ralph
