I have been helping a local fellow with his D100/AP74 setup today and most things now work properly, with a couple of exceptions. this may be due to the Apollo 360 GPS :-/
Serial data is coming to the D100, we get Magenta on the HSI
We get DTW and TRK data appearing at the top of the HSI.
We get the YELLOW Bearing Indicator pointing to the destination but we do not get the Magenta Course Indicator or a CDI.
On the AP74 we can not select the NAV mode nor the TRK mode, heading and altitude work fine.
We can select via the D100 keys the TRK mode only. And the unit flies the bugged GPS track no problem.
Are all these issues because the Apollo serial data sentences are not giving the course and CDI?
And why would we be able to select TRK mode from the D100 keys but not the AP74.
He may just have to ditch the old Apollo.
