Hi All or support,
I am having a hard time to communicate my Dynon EFIS-D100 with the transponder GTX327 In order to transmit altitude. I tried two different setups but no one worked.
Any help would be appreciated.

Dynon was always with Format 4 selected.

First setup tried: ( Dynon pin 13 wired with pin 2 in transponder)

……………………………………………………………………………….
RS-232       INPUT                       OUTPUT
CHNL 1 # OFF                             Icarus Alt
CHNL 2 # GPS   (I tried to change to Icarus Alt but, for some reason, my transponder CHNL2  seems to have only the options GPS and OFF).
……………………………………………………………………..

Second  setup tried: Modified wiring ( Dynon pin 13 wired with pin 19 in transponder)

…………………………………………………………………………………
RS-232       INPUT                       OUTPUT
CHNL 1 # Icarus Alt                     Icarus Alt
CHNL 2 # OFF
…………………………………………………………………………………………………………..
RS-232
CH1 # P ALT + _ _ _ _ _ _ FT
CH2 # OFF + _ _ _ _ _ _ _
………………………………………………………………………………………………………..

I believe it should work in either channel, but I tried to connect both ways and no one worked.  Nothing is shown in the Altitude field above (only dashes).
I also tried to set the Dynon  for 10 foot and for 100 foot increments.
Thanks

Turn off the GTX outputs on the CHNL you're using, that should work. Icarus Alt IN is all that is required. ;)
