|
|
<?xml:namespace prefix="v" /><?xml:namespace prefix="o" /><![endif]--> Folks,
I'm installing a Garmin GTX-320 transponder. The installation instructions call for a dimmer circuit to control display brightness. I'm also installing a B&C Specialty DIM15-14 dimmer to control an incandescent overhead light.
I'd like to hook up the dimmer wire from the transponder to a vacant pin on the DIM15-14. Will this present any problems (especially any that damage the transponder)?
I don't know how well balanced the dimming functions will be but I'd like to try it and see rather than add a fourth dimmer circuit to the panel. (The first two dimming circuits are for the Westach engine instruments (incandescent) and flight instruments (UMA electroluminescent rings)).
Best regards,
Bob

Bob,
that is exactly what I had on my Glastar until I've changed to
S-Transponder, did work flawless.
