AmeriKing ACK-451 406 Mhz ELT  GPS position RS-232

[ibisaero]

I read the manual and says that The skyview is equipped with 5
RS-232 serial ports. I want to install an ELT 406Mhz with GPS position. What i need is Aviation RS-323 format Baud Rate (fixed) : 9600 , Parity : None , Data Bits : 8 , Stop Bits : 1 . I allready go to Setup menu for the serial port but I have only 4 options for Tx . There are only 2 with the right Baud Rate and theese are " ICARUS ALTITUDE 100ft " AND " ICARUS ALTITUDE 10ft ".
My question is if I can use one of theese setting for the GPS position of my ELT.
What I need is an RS-232 format with Start of Text (STX); "A" for latitude ; "B" for longitude ; END (ETX).The format expects carriage returns but not operate if there are line feeds.

Thank you !

We do not currently support GPS data output, so we cannot drive the ELT. We do expect to add this in a future software version, but we do not have a timeframe for that feature yet.

Also, we were expecting to do NMEA out, not aviation. Does that ELT also accept NMEA format or only aviation?

This ELT accept only aviation RS-232 input!

Thanks for the feedback. What is the make/model of the ELT?

It is made by AMERI-KING CORP. in USA and the model is AK-451-21.

Dynon,

Don't forget the similar question I posted a couple of weeks ago on the ACK E-04 ELT! The required formats are in that post.

ACK E-04 ELT

When GPS out is supported, do you expect it to be 9600 baud?

Installing new ACK E-04 406 Mhz ELT and would like to have it wired correctly when the Dynon update is available.

The serial port baud rate will be selectable, actually.
