I have a Garmin 300XL in the panel and just came across a great deal on an old Garmin 496. I envision installing the 496 and pretending it's a new Garmin 430... lol
I know I can use rs232 output 1 from the Garmin 300XL and connect it to the data in on the Garmin 496. This will allow nav data to crossfill..
My question is this:
Does the "Aviation out" data stream include gps position data? I would like to not have to run an external GPS antenna for the 496.
The manual states the 300XL outputs nav data and velocity via aviation out but, I cannot determine if nav data means position data and not just GOTO, Waypoints, ect...
Can anyone weigh in on this?
Thanks!!
