System Configuration/Checkout GDL 69/69A Installation Manual  Page 4-1 190-00355-02   Rev. F 4  SYSTEM CONFIGURATION AND CHECKOUT Once the GDL 69/69A and optional GRT 10 have been installed, configure the units for the particular installation and then complete the checkout procedures herein to verify proper operation.  The steps that are not applicable to a particular installation may be ignored. A checkout log sheet is included at the end of this section.  It is to be filled out during the checkout procedure.  The completed checkout log sheet(s) should be maintained with the aircraft permanent records. 4.1  Post Installation Power Check Move the aircraft outside and ensure that there is an unobstructed view of the Southern sky.  Attach a ground power cart to the external power connector on the aircraft and apply power. NOTE Use of an external power cart is optional in order to prevent the aircraft battery from discharging to a critically low level. Power on all systems and allow two to four minutes for initialization.  Verify that the control/display unit and the audio panel are connected and operating properly.  Ensure the circuit breaker for the GDL 69/69A and GRT 10 (if installed) is closed and the Remote Power Discrete (if wired), is enabled. 4.2  Configure RS-232 Port For installations with the MX20 or GMX 200, refer to the corresponding installation manual for configuring the correct RS-232 port of the MX20 or GMX 200 that the GDL 69/69A is connected. For installations with the 400/500 and 400W/500W series units, refer to the 400/500 Series Pilot’s Guide Addendum or the 400W/500W Series Pilot’s Guides for configuring the correct RS-232 port of the 400/500 or 400W/500W series unit that the GDL 69/69A is connected. 4.3  Configure Ethernet Port For installations with the GDU 104x, refer to the GDU 104x installation manual, P/N 190-00303-01, for configuring the GDL 69/69A Ethernet ports. 4.4 Initialization of Configuration Module The GDL 69/69A requires aircraft installation information to be stored in the configuration module.  For GMX 200, MX20, 400/500 Series units, and 400W/500W Series units the configuration module is installed in the back panel connector backshell assembly and the only parameter stored in the configuration module is the variable attenuator value needed to obtain the required GDL 69/69A gain/loss component. For installations with the GDU 104x, the configuration information is stored with the G1000 avionics system, therefore the configuration module is not installed in the GDL 69/69A connector backshell. For installations with the G1000 avionics system, the configuration information contains the variable attenuator value and may contain several other parameters. NOTE The GDL 69/69A does not provide proper operation until the configuration initialization procedure is completed.    Configuration Module Procedure for Installation with MX20 and GMX 200 Refer to the latest revision of the MX20 or GMX 200 Installation Manual (Garmin AT Part Number 560-1025-(  ) and 190-00607-04) for instructions.

F NOTE For composite aircraft, hold the GRC 10 as close to the antenna under test as practical from inside the cabin.  For metal aircraft, hold the GRC 10 close to the window nearest the antenna under test.  Repeat the test for the other GPS antenna when complete. 5. While monitoring the signal status of each satellite being received on the GPS, power on the GRC 10 using the XM button and immediately press the  button at least once a second for a minimum of 35 seconds and check the GPS signal reception to make sure it is not affected (no significant signal degradation).  Perform the test with the GRC 10 in the horizontal orientation with the unit pointing at the antenna.  Repeat test with the GRC 10 in the vertical orientation with the back of the unit pointing at the antenna. NOTE If the GDL 69A subscription services with XM Satellite Radio Corporation have not been activated, only a limited number of channels will be available.
