CONNECTING TO A GTX 330 MODE S TRANSPONDER
To receive Mode S TIS traffic data from a GTX 330 transponder on your aera, connect
an available RS-232 OUT wire on the transponder to the Data In wire on the aera.
(You do not need to connect the transponder to the aera’s Data Out wire.) Then, set
the corresponding RS-232 output configuration on the transponder to REMOTE + TIS
and set the aera’s Serial Data Format to TIS In or TIS In/NMEA & VHF Out. For more
information see the GTX 330 Transponder Installation Manual.
Configuring TIS input:
1)
Connect the aera to the GTX 330 using the Aviation Bare Wire Connector
(optional accessory).
2)
From the 'Home' Screen, touch Tools > Setup > Interface.
3)
Touch the Serial Data Format Button. A vertical list is displayed.
4)
Touch 'TIS In' or 'TIS In/NMEA & VHF Out'.
The TIS Status field indicates one of the following messages:
Waiting For Data—searching for a valid TIS data stream. •
Data Available—receiving TIS data from the transponder.•
Data Unavailable—connection to transponder established, but TIS service is •
unavailable.
Lost Connection—an error occurred or the connection to the transponder was •
lost.
