1. Overview
The GIA 64 series of line replaceable units (LRU) are a family of integrated avionics units (IAU) for use
with a Garmin Integrated Flight Deck (GIFD). The GIA 64 provides the following functionality:
• Interface capability to other GIFD system components using Ethernet (HSDB), RS-232, RS-485,
RS-422, ARINC 429, and other interfaces.
• Interface capability to third party equipment using RS-232, RS-485, RS-422, ARINC 429, and
other interfaces.
• Command and control of the GFC 700 autopilot (if equipped) or various third party autopilots.
• A VHF COM transceiver capable of 25 kHz or 8.33 kHz operation in the band from 118.000 MHz
to 136.975 MHz (25 kHz spacing) or 136.992 MHz (8.33 kHz spacing). Extended range operation
in the band from 137.000 MHz to 151.975 MHz (25 kHz spacing only) is available as an additional
option.
• A 15 channel WAAS certified GPS receiver.
• A VOR/ILS Localizer receiver operating from 108.00 MHz to 117.95 MHz (50 kHz spacing).
• An ILS Glide Slope receiver operating from 329.15 MHz to 335.00 MHz (paired with an active ILS
localizer frequency).

3.1.
General IO Considerations
Implementation of available IO should take system and aircraft requirements in to account when using IO
to interface to additional LRUs within the system. Connection and use of available configurable interfaces
vary between model variants and system integration requirements. System and aircraft requirements
should be considered prior to configuring any GIA 64 provided interfaces .
3.2.1. Ethernet
The GIA 64 has a total of 3 Ethernet interfaces. All Ethernet interfaces support IEEE standard 802.3 for
10 base T Ethernet.
3.2.2. RS-485/422
The GIA 64 has a total of 5 to 8 RS-485 transceivers (dependent on model variant). Transceivers can be
paired together to make one RS-422 interface allowing up to 2 to 4 RS-422 interfaces.
3.2.3. Discrete IO
The GIA 64 has configurable discrete I/O in order to use the pins on the external connector more
efficiently. Each discrete interface, input and output, is configurable between either active high or low. All
of the discrete outputs have a default state of inactive implemented during and after a reset. This is
specifically targeted at those outputs supporting auto pilot functionality, ensuring that those outputs reset
when the microprocessor resets.
3.2.4 ARINC 429/717
The GIA 64 provides a single configurable ARINC 429 transmitter that can set up to operate as an ARINC
717 transmitter. Output is designed to meet the ARINC standard the output is configured to.
3.2.5. ARINC 429
The GIA 64 provides both ARINC 429 receivers and transmitters designed to meet ARINC 429
specifications. Available interfaces are dependent on model variant.
3.2.6. Configurable Analog IO
The following analog interfaces are configurable as a DC or AC mode interface. Available modes are
dependent on model variant.
•
•
Configurable AC ARINC 407 (X/Y/Z) Inputs / DC SIN/COS Inputs
Configurable AC/DC Outputs
3.3 COM IO
3.3.1 Key Event Out
The Key Event Out active low discrete output signals that the GIA COM is transmitting. In installations
with more than 2 VHF COM radios, this input can be used to connect to the Transmit Interlock input on
the other radios.
3.3.3 Emergency COM Operation
The Emergency COM Operation active low discrete input tunes the transceiver to the emergency
frequency, 121.500 MHz, when active.
4. Installation Consideration
4.1.
GIA 64 Pinout
GIA 64 pinouts specific to model variants can be obtained by contacting Garmin International.

4.2.
Cabling and Wiring Consideration
Cabling and wiring must be installed in accordance with AC 43.13-1B CHG 1 Chapter 11, Sections 8
through 13. The following issues must be addressed:
• Do not expose cabling and wiring to chafing
• Avoid sharp bends in cabling and wiring harnesses
• Make sure ample space is provided for cabling and wiring harnesses and connectors to allow
connection and disconnection.
• Do not route cabling and wiring harnesses near electrical noise sources or high current electrical
wiring (such as power lines to DC electrical motors)
• Do not route cabling and wiring harnesses near flight control cables
• Do not route cabling and wiring harnesses near heat sources
• Appropriate wiring should be shielded
• Wiring pigtail lengths must not exceed 3.0 inches
4.3.
Bonding
Electrical equipment, supporting brackets, and racks must be electrically bonded to the aircraft's main
structure or a designated aircraft groundplane. Refer to the following documents for acceptable bonding
techniques:
• AC 43.13-1B CHG 1, "Acceptable Methods, Techniques, and Practices - Aircraft Inspection and
Repair", Chapter 11, "Aircraft Electrical Systems"
• SAE ARP 1870A, "Aerospace Systems Electrical Bonding and Grounding for Electromagnetic
Compatibility and Safety"
• A bonding procedure developed and supplied by the aircraft manufacturer (if available)
The electrical bond must achieve direct current (DC) resistance less than or equal to 2.5 milliohms to local
structure where the equipment is mounted. Compliance must be verified by inspection using a calibrated
milliohm meter.
4.4.
Cooling Considerations
The GIA 64 meets all TSO requirements without external cooling. However, as with all electronic
equipment, lower operating temperatures extend equipment life. On the average, reducing the operating
temperature by 15-20 °C (25 to 35 °F) doubles the mean time between failure (MTBF). Recommended
airflow rating is 1 CFM (cubic foot per minute) at a pressure equivalent to 0.1 inches of water. Potential
damage to your GIA 64 may occur by using outside forced air to cool the equipment. Therefore, it is
recommended that an electric forced air fan be installed, of the indicated rating, to cool this equipment.
Units tightly packed in the avionics stack heat each other through radiation, convection, and sometimes
by direct conduction. Even a single unit operates at a much higher temperature in still air than in moving
air. Fans or some other means of moving the air around electronic equipment are usually a worthwhile
investment. A 5/8” diameter air fitting is provided on the rear of the mounting rack for the purpose of
admitting cooling air under such conditions. If a form of forced air cooling is installed, make certain that
rainwater cannot enter and be sprayed on the equipment.
4.5.
Mounting Requirements
The GIA 64 mounting surface must be capable of providing structural support and electrical bonding to
the aircraft to minimize radiated EMI and provide protection from High-Intensity Radiated Fields (HIRF).
4.6.
Antenna Installation
The GIA 64 does not include antennas for the VHF COM, VOR/LOC, Glide Slope, and GPS RF
Interfaces. All antennas must be installed and bonded in accordance with the manufactures installation
instructions with the addition to the Garmin guidance provided in section 4.6.1.

4.6.1. COM Antenna Location
The GIA 64 COM antennas must be mounted as far as is practical from any protruding aircraft features
such as engines or propellers. Garmin recommends COM antennas be mounted a minimum of:
• Six (6) feet from all other VHF COM antennas
• Six (6) feet from DME antennas
• Four (4) feet from ADF sense antennas
• Three (3) feet from any GPS antennas
• Three (3) feet from any GIA 64 units
• As far as practical from any ELT (emergency locator transmitter) antennas
• As specified in the installation instructions for DF (direction finder) receiver antennas
5. Power
The GIA 64 implements independent dual power supplies for the COM and the remaining GIA 64 system.

8. Unit Authorization
8.1.
Transmitter Grant of Equipment Authorization
CAUTION
The operation of unapproved cellular telephones or other unapproved cellular devices
aboard aircraft while airborne is prohibited by FCC rules. Due to the potential for
interference with onboard systems, the operation of unapproved cellular communication
devices while onboard an aircraft that is on the ground is subject to FAA regulations 14
CFR 91.21.
FCC regulation 47 CFR 22.925 prohibits airborne operation of unapproved cellular
telephones installed in or carried aboard aircraft. Unapproved cellular telephones must
not be operated aboard any aircraft while the aircraft is off the ground. When any aircraft
leaves the ground, all unapproved cellular telephones on board that aircraft must be
turned off.

Unapproved cellular telephones that are on, even in a monitoring state, can disrupt GPS
performance.
NOTE
The FCC authorization for the COM Extended Range Option is for equipment
certification purposes only; it does NOT constitute an authorization to operate the COM
transmitter in the frequency range from 137.000 to 151.975 MHz in the United States (as
described in 47 CFR 87.147(f)). Additional agency authorizations are required to
operate the COM transmitter in these frequency bands. Contact Garmin Product Support
for more information.
