I am trying to interface a GTN-650 with a SkyView system and a Trutrak Vizion autopilot. Both the SkyView and the Trutrak need an ARINC 429 output connection from the GTN but with different outputs.
The SkyView needs HIGH - GAMA Format 2 on channel 1 and the Trutrak needs LOW - GAMA Format 1 on channel 2.
It seems that if one ARINC channel is set to GAMA then the other ARINC channel loses many of it's output options including the GAMA options. Kind of pointless to have two ARINC channels if they are going to do this.
My old set up was a GNS-430W, Dynon D series, and the same trutrak A/P and it wasn't a problem.
Has anyone else run into this???? Am I missing something?
Thank you!
