Bill/Tom,

Did you ever receive you ADS-B unit from Navworx? I'm still waiting on word/eturn of my unit sent in for upgrade back in September.

I received a software update (3.10.0) from Bill on Feb. 27.  I just installed it Friday and I haven't flown with it yet but it seems to have resolved an issue that the last two didn't address.  I sent my unit back to them about a month ago and was pleasantly surprised to have it turned around pretty quickly.

But I know how you feel.  It's usually pretty quiet at Navworx..

This a comment I received from Bill about a month ago. I’ve not received any communication since then.

“There is a new software release, but it’s in beta testing right now. You’ll be notified when it’s available.”

I just sent him the following question, but I’ll ask it here since there are plenty of folks that have already installed an ADS600-B. I was finishing the wiring for mine this afternoon, when I noticed an omission.

In the 10/31/2011 version of the ADS600-B manual, it highlights connecting the RS-232 output from the GTX-327 to Pin 33 for transponder control. On the ADS600 to AFS page, it highlights connecting Pin 35 for Transponder suppression.

Although it’s not formally documented on the GTX-327 page, I’m assuming that I need to connect pin 35 on the ADS600-B to pin 17 on the GTX-327, which is the external suppression pin. Is my assumption correct

Bill,

I last spoke with Moffit approximately two months ago and decided not to send my unit in as Moffit said that he didn’t have the hardware needed for upgrades at that time.
I’m copying my friend Hugo on this email. He sent his unit in and was still waiting.

Hugo, any details on what’s going on with your unit.

I guess Navworx goes on my list of people I need to talk to at Sun and Fun.

DAR final inspection tomorrow at 10 AM. Hoo Yah!!!!

Tom

I rec'd a unit a couple of weeks ago.

Unfortunately I haven't really gotten into the technical details of the installation but it looks like I may have ordered a unit without the ARINC module. I'm thinking that with GRT HX units, a GTX327 and G430 that ARINC is needed. I have a wiring harness from FastStack that I think assumes ARINC support. Looking forward to talking to NavWorx tomorrow.

I don't think arnic is a requirement. Most of the efis vendors support the display port output which is rs232.

You likely only need ARINC if you want to send traffic to a Garmin like the GNS or GTN.

Still not a requirement.
I have the display port (wx & traffic) going to the afs4500 and the tis port going to the gtn650. Both are serial.
Arnic may have some other benefits, but for the $$. I stayed with the serial connections.

Well, I have a GNS 430W but I didn't envision it as a primary source of traffic info... if it would display it at all.  I'm guessing that the 430 would probably display traffic if connected via ARINC.  My wire harness from FastStack is wired for it but FastStack can't confirm whether it would function that way and Garmin probably has no opinion.  Hoping to talk to Bill at Navworx soon.

Different question; why the heck, with all the GPS receivers I have, can't the Navworx box use one of those  signals instead of requiring yet another GPS antenna?  Seems like we're going from "bristling with antenna whips" to "covered with GPS boils".  But apparently it doesn't so....

The good news is that you don't need much of an antenna.  I'm using this on the glare shield and it works just fine:

http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/avpages/garminAcss5.php

It was left over from our 696, which doesn't need an external antenna.  I cut off the extra wire and put a TNC on it, but I used a bunch of adapters before I got around to that.

I also learned that the larger antenna from a 496 doesn't work.

I don't think arnic is a requirement. Most of the efis vendors support the display port output which is rs232.

Hmm interesting, didn't know that. I wonder if there is any advantage in using ARINC in that case such as weather. Might be able to save a couple hundred bucks by ditching that interface.

Still not a requirement.

I have the display port (wx & traffic) going to the afs4500 and the tis port going to the gtn650. Both are serial.

Arnic may have some other benefits, but for the $$. I stayed with the serial connections.

Bill/Tom,

Did you ever receive you ADS-B unit from Navworx? I'm still waiting on word/eturn of my unit sent in for upgrade back in September.

Quote:
According to Bill Moffit, one of the planned software upgrades is to give GPS output. I want to use this to drive my ELT. Hopefully, it will come with this software upgrade. Given that we already have to enter a number of software commands into the ADS-600B for setup and ID purposes, I don’t understand why Navworx doesn’t make the software available for online downloading as opposed to requiring the unit to be sent back in.

I did get a reply from Bill Moffitt yesterday that "they are trying to get the latest software into all units prior to shipment." He gave me the option for them to ship it now, but if they did, "I would have to return it before it will support an future software upgrades, new features, etc." I opted to wait.

Per my discussion with Bill today, the ARINC isn't really needed in my config since the GRTs are the display devices.  ARINC -may- display traffic on the GNS430 but he wasn't sure and Garmin isn't saying.  I'm wired for it but nothing he said indicated that I should add the ARINC interface.  Will just use the serial.
