CONNECTING TO A GTX 330 MODE S TRANSPONDER
To receive Mode S TIS traffic data from a GTX 330 transponder on your GPSMAP
695/696, connect an available RS-232 OUT pin on the transponder to the Data In pin
on the GPSMAP 695/696. (You do not need to connect the transponder to the GPSMAP
695/696’s Data Out pin.) Then, set the corresponding RS-232 output configuration
on the transponder to REMOTE + TIS and set the GPSMAP 695/696’s Serial Data
Format to TIS In or TIS In/NMEA & VHF Out (refer to the Interfacing section). For more
information, see Appendix E and the GTX 330 Transponder Installation Manual.
