For those with GRTs and SL-30 installed, I discovered this during my final wiring check:
Reference "EFIS Horizon Cable Description (Triple Display Unit EFIS Single AHRS)" Display Unit 1 - Connector A Description
Pin 2 definition states "Serial Out 1 - Spare - Also connects to expansion port for ARINC 429 or internal GPS (Available if expansion port NOT used)"
Pin 20 definition for Serial In 1 is the same.
I have the ARINC 429 Module connected. The pins 2 and 20 definitions above imply that Serial In/Out 1 are therefore NOT available to me - they are used to interface to the ARINC Module.
WD-1001-05 specifies the wiring interconnect to the SL30 and indicates that Pins 2 and 20 connect to the SL-30 WITH the ARINC module installed.
Can't imagine that Serial port 1 drives BOTH the ARINC Module and SL30. Where is the error, or what am I missing?
Cheers,
Ron

Ron,
Actually serial port 1 is available even though there is an ARINC module installed (not true when the GPS module is installed). The port is limited to low speed (19,200 or less) though when the ARINC module is there. In practical terms this means that about the only thing you can’t use port 1 for (on the DU with the ARINC module) is the XM weather module.

Thanks Bob.
Your explanation is supported by the following overnight response from GRT:
"You can run the SL-30 on serial 1 with the ARINC module. The SL-30 does not work however if you have the internal GPS module on serial 1.
We have to update that in the Connector Description."
I guess they still have some doco catchup to do - but their customer support/responsiveness is awesome.
cheers,
Ron
