Hi to al!



I'm doing a bench shakedown on my Panel prior to fit in Aircraft.

Results not too bad but SL70 Transponder encoding from Rocky Mountain

Encoder not functioning.



With the SL70 it's possible to view altitude as live function so I should

have that facility at testing and operation on the bench.



I've set both at serial and 1200 baud, checked all the serial connections

(2!) so I guess I have a configuration problem.



Any input from this worldwide council of experts greatly appreciated.



Regards



Gerry

The SL70 is designed to accept both Serial and grey code inputs and provide 

serial output.  I have the install manual at the hangar - but I think I have 

a pdf copy too... it provides wiring and settings.



I have mine set up for grey in from my NARCO encoder and serial out to my 

GX60.



I'll agree that it's a config issue - my first step would be baud rates - 

1200 seems low......



I'll send what I find,

Ralph Capen

Ralph Hi!



Thanks for the response.

 You are right. Just dont think the Micro Encoder supplies Transponder data

other than parallel. It does supply serial data to most GPS. I may well be

wrong. The Altitude data string is available in all of the predefined

protocols. I'm just wiring it up now using the grey output. It's snowy and

wet here so it's working out!

Many thanks. Dont waste any build or flying time!
