4.3 ALTIMETER
4.3.1 Altimeter Function
Altitude input is required for GPS RAIM calculations, and is useful for advisory vertical navigation
(VNAV) calculations.

These inputs are considered active if either the voltage to ground is <1.9 V or the resistance to ground
is <375 Ω. These inputs are considered inactive if the voltage to ground is 11-33 Vdc.
NOTE
Some transponders and other altitude encoder receivers do not have internal isolation diodes to prevent the
unit from pulling the encoder lines to ground when the unit is off. These units require a diode added to the
installation harness for each encoder line. The anode should be connected on the receiving unit’s side and
the cathode should be connected on the encoder side. A set of diodes is required for each unit without
internal diodes. The 500 Series unit includes internal diodes for isolation of the encoder lines.
4.3.3 Altimeter Configuration
None.
