1. Garmin was granted a deviation from TSO-C169a paragraph 4.a.2 to allow the unit to be permanently and legibly marked with a serial number and not the date of manufacture. The justification
for this deviation is per FAA Memorandum “FAA Order 8150.1B, Technical Standard Order Program, Policy Clarification” which states that the date of manufacture must be used in lieu of the
optional serial number when that information is critical for maintenance and/or inspections. An
equivalent level of safety is provided since the date of manufacture is not critical for maintenance
and/or inspections of this appliance. The appliance will be marked with a serial number.
1. Garmin was granted a deviation from ETSO-2C37e to use DO-160E instead of DO-160D.
Equivalent Level of Safety (ELOS) is provided by use of a later revision requirement document.
2. Garmin was granted a deviation from ETSO-2C37e to use ED-23B amendment 3 in addition to
ED-23B. ELOS is provided by use of a later revision requirement document.

2 INSTALLATION OVERVIEW
2.1 Introduction
This section provides hardware equipment information for installing the GDR 66, related hardware, and
antennas. Installation of the GDR 66 must follow the aircraft TC or STC requirements. Cabling is
fabricated by the installing agency to fit each particular aircraft. The guidance of FAA advisory circulars
AC 43.13-1B and AC 43.13-2B, where applicable, may be found useful for making retro-fit installations
that comply with FAA regulations.
2.2 Installation Materials
Refer to Appendix A for rack drawings and dimensions.
The GDR 66 is only available as a single unit under the following part number:

Revision A
2.3 Installation Considerations
Fabrication of a wiring harness is required. Sound mechanical and electrical methods and practices are
required for installation of the GDR 66.
2.3.1 Antenna Considerations
Antenna installations on pressurized cabin aircraft require FAA approved installation design and
engineering substantiation data whenever such antenna installations incorporate alteration (penetration) of
the cabin pressure vessel by connector holes and/or mounting arrangements. For needed engineering
support pertaining to the design and approval of such pressurized aircraft antenna installations, it is
recommended that the installer proceed according to any of the following listed alternatives:
AF
1. Obtain approved antenna installation design data from the aircraft manufacturer.
2. Obtain an FAA approved STC, pertaining to, and valid for the antenna installation.
3. Contact the FAA Aircraft Certification Office in the appropriate Region and request identification
of FAA Designated Engineering Representatives (DERs) who are authorized to prepare and
approve the required antenna installation engineering data.
4. Obtain FAA Advisory Circular AC-183C and select (and contact) a DER from the roster of
individuals listed in it.
5. Contact an aviation industry organization such as the Aircraft Electronics Association for
assistance.
2.3.2 Com Antenna Location
The GDR 66 COM antenna should be well removed from all projections, engines and propellers. The
ground plane surface directly below the antenna should be a flat plane over as large an area as possible (18
inches square, minimum). The antenna should be mounted a minimum of three feet from any DME
antennas, three feet from any GPS antennas, and as far as practical from the ELT antenna. Some ELTs
have exhibited re-radiation problems generating harmonics which may interfere with other signals.
In addition, the COM antenna must have at least 16 dB of isolation from other COM antennas to prevent
damage to the GDR 66 COM receiver. For COM antennas mounted on the same side of the fuselage, 16
dB of isolation can be achieved by a physical separation of approximately 3 feet (0.9 meters).
If simultaneous use of two or more COM transceivers is desired the COM antennas must be spaced for
maximum isolation. For a two COM installation, one COM antenna should be mounted on the top of the
fuselage and the other antenna should be mounted on the bottom of the fuselage. For installations with
three COM’s, one COM antenna should be mounted on the top of the fuselage and the other two antennas
should be mounted on the bottom of the fuselage and physically separated from each other as much as
possible.
The recommended minimum isolation between COM antennas for simultaneous use of two or more
COM’s is 40 dB. Separating the COM antennas between the top and bottom of the fuselage typically
provides 35 – 45 dB of isolation for metal skin aircraft. For COM antennas mounted on the same side of
the fuselage, 40 dB of isolation can be achieved by a physical separation of approximately 60 feet (18.3
meters). Receiver sensitivity could be significantly reduced during the transmission of a co-located COM
for installations with less than 40 dB of isolation between the COM antennas. For installations with less
than 23 dB of isolation between COM antennas, cross modulation (bleed-through) could also be
experienced during the transmission of a co-located COM. For COM antennas mounted on the same side
of the fuselage, 23 dB of isolation can be achieved by a physical separation of approximately 9 feet (2.7
meters).
Simultaneous COM performance varies significantly across installations and is affected by both the
isolation between the COM antennas and the separation of the tuned frequencies. Each installation should
be individually examined to determine the expected performance of simultaneous COM.

2.4 Cabling and Wiring
Refer to the interconnect examples in Appendix B for wire gauge guidance.
The power connection can be run with three AWG #18 wires back to the breaker or can be spliced near the
unit to one AWG #16 or larger wire. Special thin-wall heat shrink tubing is also provided to insulate the
extended barrels inside the backshell. If using AWG #18 barrel contacts, ensure that no two contacts are
mounted directly adjacent to each other. This minimizes the risk of contacts touching and shorting to
adjacent pins and to ground.
Ensure that routing of the wiring does not come in contact with sources of heat, RF or EMI interference.
Check that there is ample space for the cabling and mating connectors. Avoid sharp bends in cabling and
routing near aircraft control cables.
Coaxial cable with 50Ω nominal impedance and meeting applicable aviation regulations should be used for
the installation.
NOTE
RTCA DO-224A assumes 3dB of cable loss in its VDL Typical Uplink Power
Budget. Losses greater than 3dB can reduce transceiver range.
AF
Cabling for the GDR 66 should not be routed near components or cabling which are sources of electrical
noise. Route the GPS, VOR/LOC, and Glideslope antenna cables as far as possible away from all COM
transceivers and antenna cables.
2.5 Cooling Air
Dedicated cooling is not required for the GDR 66 to meet indicated EQF categories. Thermal analysis
must be performed to verify that high temperature limits implied by the indicated EQF categories for the
GDR 66 are not exceeded during normal operation of the aircraft. Guidance can be found in the Garmin
Integrated Avionics System Thermal Management Plan document (GPN 190-00313-50) and the Garmin
Integrated Avionics System Thermal Validation Procedure (GPN 190-00313-51).
Contact Garmin for additional cooling guidance.

2.6 Mounting Requirements
AF
The GDR 66 mounting surface should be capable of providing a sufficient electrical bond to the aircraft to
minimize radiated EMI and provide protection from High-Intensity Radiation Fields (HIRF). Bonding
resistance measured between the GDR 66 standalone install rack and the airframe should be less than 2.5
mlliOhms. The GDR 66 must be mounted in the vertical position using the GDR 66 standalone rack.
Approximately one inch of clearance should be provided on the left side of the GDR 66 to allow for
cooling of the heat sink. Refer to Appendix A for outline and installation drawings.

3 INSTALLATION PROCEDURE
3.1 Unpacking Unit
Carefully unpack the equipment and make a visual inspection of the unit for evidence of damage incurred
during shipment. If the unit is damaged, notify the carrier and file a claim. To justify a claim, save the
original shipping container and all packing materials. Do not return the unit to Garmin until the carrier has
authorized the claim.
Retain the original shipping containers for storage. If the original containers are not available, a separate
cardboard container should be prepared that is large enough to accommodate sufficient packing material to
prevent movement.
3.2 Wiring Harness Installation
Allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors. The installer shall supply and fabricate all
of the cables. All electrical connections are made through 44 and 62-pin D-subminiature connectors.
Section 4 defines the electrical characteristics of all input and output signals. Required connectors and
associated hardware are supplied with the connector kit.
AF
See Appendix B for examples of interconnect wiring diagrams. Construct the actual harnesses in
accordance with aircraft manufacturer authorized interconnect standards.
Contacts for the 62 and 44 pin connectors must be crimped onto the individual wires of the aircraft wiring
harness. Tables 3-1 and 3-2 list contact part numbers (for reference) and recommended crimp tools.

4.4.2 Key Event Out
The GDR 66 provides one output to signal when the GDR 66 is transmitting, regardless of what mode the
radio is in. KEY EVENT OUT* can be used as needed to decrease the sensitivity of other COM receivers
on the aircraft when the GDR 66 is transmitting. KEY EVENT OUT* is a non-configurable discrete
output conforming to:
Active: 0 VDC < Vout < 1.0 VDC with < 20 mA sink current; sink current must be externally
limited to 20 mA max.
Inactive: Open circuit, can be pulled up to an externally sourced Vout in the range 3.3 VDC < Vout
< 36 VDC; leakage current is typically <10 uA to ground.

4.5 Audio
When the GDR 66 is in analog voice mode (ARINC 716 Voice), audio from the microphone and audio to
the headset can be transferred to/from the GDR 66 as analog audio or digital audio. If analog audio is used,
the COM MIC KEY* discrete input must be used. If digital audio is used all of this information is
transferred in the digital audio stream.
4.5.1 Analog Audio
4.5.1.1 Com Mic Audio
The GDR 66 provides one microphone audio input. COM MIC AUDIO has a 150 ohm AC input
impedance and supplies the microphone with a 12 V bias through 400Ω +/− 20%. COM MIC AUDIO is set
in the factory for 250 mVrms to modulate the transmitter at 90% nominally. The microphone gain is
adjustable during installation to increase the sensitivity to 20 mVrms or decrease the sensitivity to 2.5
Vrms.

4.5.1.2 Com Audio Out
The GDR 66 provides one audio output that is intended to drive a headset or an audio panel. The rated
output is 4.90 Vrms into a 600 ohm load (40 mWavg). A volume control is available during flight to
reduce the output by at least 40 dB to 49 mVrms. COM 600 OHM AUDIO OUT is the summation of the
COM receiver audio and COM sidetone audio.

4.5.1.3 Com Mic Key
The GDR 66 transmits the audio from the microphone (COM MIC AUDIO IN) when the COM MIC
KEY* input is active. The COM MIC KEY* should be connected to the microphones PTT output. COM
MIC KEY* is a non-configurable discrete input conforming to:
Low: 0 VDC < Vin < 3.5 VDC, OR Rin < 375 ohms (active)
High: 8 VDC < Vin < 36 VDC, OR Rin > 100k ohm (inactive)

4.5.1.4 Com Remote Transfer
The GDR 66 provides one COM REMOTE TRANSFER* input which allows the COM Emergency State
to be entered or exited. When the GDR 66 enters Emergency State, it automatically switches to AM COM
mode and tunes to the emergency channel, 121.500 MHz. When in Emergency State, the GDR 66 ignores
inputs from the front panel controls for COM selections and cannot be used for digital data link.
The COM REMOTE TRANSFER* input controls Emergency State via one of two modes: “Hold-toAcitvate” mode and “On/Off” mode. A GDR 66 aircraft configuration parameter selects the mode as well
as the activation time for Hold-to-Acitvate mode. In Hold-to-Acivate mode, the Emergency State is
entered when the COM REMOTE TRANSFER* input is held active for the configured time, and is exited
immediately when the COM REMOTE TRANSFER* input becomes active after having been inactive. In
On/Off mode, COM REMOTE TRANSFER* acts as an on/off switch for Emergency State, which is
entered immediately when COM REMOTE TRANSFER* becomes active, and is exited immediately
when COM REMOTE TRANSFER* becomes inactive.
Low: 0 VDC < Vin < 3.5 VDC, OR Rin < 375 ohms (active)
High: 8 VDC < Vin < 36 VDC, OR Rin > 100k ohm (inactive)

4.5.2 ACARS/SELCAL
4.5.2.1 SELCAL Audio and ACARS Data Out
The GDR 66 provides one SELCAL audio/ACARS data output that can either be used for SELCAL or
VDL Mode 0 (ARINC 716 Data). The rated output is 2.45 Vrms into a 600 ohm load (10 mWavg). The
gain is adjustable during installation to decrease the output by at least 40 dB to 24.5 mVrms. A gain setting
of -7.0 dB (1.2 Vrms minimum) is recommended. Refer to EQF for certification considerations for this
output.
