Hello all,
I am building the wiring harness for an Aspen E5 while my plane is down for some maintenance. I expect to have a TruTrak AP to install before putting the plane back together. I know that integration between these is on the way, but that some people have already wired the units together.
I can't find documentation from either manufacturer about the interconnects, probably because Aspen E5 and TruTrak aren't officially a "thing" yet.
To those that have done this, did you just do [Navigator ARINC(430W for me)] ==> E5 ==> TruTrak? Or did you use a switch so that either the navigator OR the Aspen can drive the TruTrak? What about the RS-232 from the navigator?
Any guidance would be appreciated.
