Attaching more than one device to your GPS output

[Howes]

Hello
I have a Bendix King Skymap III C colour GPS in my RV4, which is feeding an EZ pilot autopilot. I also have a D10a. Can I also attach the GPS output to my D10a and run them both in parallel, without either of  them affecting each other? Can I just parallel them up without any special interface device? Is there a limit to the number of times you can parallel off the Skymap? In other words, can I run more than 2 devices off of the GPS?

Happy Landings

Most GPS's can drive multiple devices on their transmit line. As long as everyone can talk the same protocol and baud rate, you should be fine.

The won't interfer because the GPS is the only one talking, the Dynon and the AP are just listening.

Oh, Just for a GPS as long as you have a free serial port, you can just connect the GPS to the Dynon without anything else needed.
