My KMD150 does not see the GPS output from the GNS430W.  Does anyone have any input on how to convince these two to talk to one another?

Bill,



did you configure the 430 that it does output NMEA0183 format with the 

correct baudrate and also, that the KMD does look for that format with 

the same baudrate and that receive and transmit of the two units are 

crossed? You have 3 wires between the two right?



Just as a starter

The GNS430W only outputs "aviation".  This is not on the list of what the

KMD150 says it will read, however, I have been told by both Garmin and

Honeywell tech support that the KMD will read it.



So far, I have not been able to tell my KMD...  :>)  I was hoping that

someone on the list had accomplished that..

Interesting according to the specs from the KMD 150 it reads:



<https://www.bendixking.com/servlet/com.honeywell.aes.utility.PDFDownLoadServlet?FileName=/static/brochures/pdf/kmd150.pdf>



External GPS, requires ARNAV R-30, BendixKing RS232 or RS422 (9600 

baud), NMEA0183 (4800 or 9600

baud) or Northstar Proprietary data (1200 baud); WX-500 Stormscope sensor



that sounds not like Aviation Format will work!

Hello Bill,



just found on the 430 installation instruction:



4.6.1.1 you can set GPS COM Out1 port on data format 2 which is the 

northstar format



Don't forget to check baudrate!



Let me know if you need instructions how to set it.

Werner,

That may be it, but I will have to think through it because I have other

things connected to the 430.  Dynon 10A, Trutrack Digitrack II VSGV, etc.

they require Aviation and different speeds.

You might try what format you can select on the other two com's maybe 

they can still do Aviation?



You can easily try to hook up a PC with a terminal program (don't use 

the windows one, but e.g. terraterm) and see what you get out there, so 

you can choose on com 1 the northstar?



Further on the Users Guide Page 44:



Important Note for Garmin GPS Users

Although Garmin products output the Bendix/King equivalent ARNAV R-

30 (RS232) data sentence format, when put into OBS Mode some

Garmin GPS units stop sending flight plan data. In these circumstances

your KMD 150 will display only the GPS position and track since it is not

receiving flight plan data.

In the case of DME arcs, turns and holds, some Garmin GPS units send

the flight plan information as if there was no arc or curved flight path.

Therefore the KMD 150 has no option but to connect the beginning and

end waypoints of the arc or curve with a straight line. Under these 

circumstances

the line on the KMD 150 MUST BE IGNORED.

NMEA AND NORTHSTAR DATA

If the host GPS is outputting NMEA data or Northstar M3 binary data, no

flight plan information will be displayed on the KMD 150. The information

appearing on the KMD 150 will be limited to present position, track and

ground speed.



Good luck



Werner
