Garmin apollo sl30 nav Manuale Utente

If an external converter is driven from the composite output in conjunction with a full 
function CDI/HSI with resolver, the indicator head type, when selected from the Setup Mode 
during the post installation checkout, should be R

ESOLVER

. In this installation, the composite 

output will be disabled whenever the VOR monitor mode is active or back course localizer 
mode is enabled. This will cause the external converter to flag. If the 

CONVERTER

 option is 

selected from the Setup Mode as the indicator head type, neither of these two options is 
available to the pilot and the composite output should always be valid. The C

ONVERTER

 setup 

option should be used if an external converter is the only indicator interfaced to the SL30.  

When Nav tuning is provided to the Apollo GX, the GX will output Distance, Speed, and 
Time (DST) information on the MapCom output. It is the installer’s responsibility to ensure 
that this information is displayed in an acceptable fashion. For instance, in an installation 
where two Apollo SL30’s are integrated in the system, it is not appropriate to display DST 
information on the SL30 that is not providing the tuning information. Apollo SL30 SW 
version 1.2, or later, provides the means for disabling the display of DST information. 

Once the unit is installed, complete the checkout procedure to verify proper operation. Refer 
to the User’s Guide for operating instructions. 

 

The steps that are not applicable to a particular installation may be skipped. A checkout log 
sheet is included on page 39 to fill out during the checkout procedure. Make a photocopy of 
the log sheet for ease of use if desired.  

 

Verify that all cables are properly secured and shields are connected to the rear of the 
mounting frame. Check the movement of the aircraft controls to verify that there is no 
interference. 

The SL30 has a built-in I/O test mode to simplify system setup and checkout. To operate the 
SL30 in the Setup Mode, hold down the Ù

 

and SYS buttons while switching on the power. 

You must continue to hold the buttons in until a complete power up is done and S

ELECT 

CDI 

is displayed. To return to normal operation, switch the power off, and then back on.  
 
In the Setup Mode, turn the large knob to view each function. In general, press the SEL 
button to activate selection, turn the small knob to view each option, and then press ENT to 
save the displayed value. Pressing SEL again will exit the option without saving any changes.
