(2022) Service Alert 22122 Rev A: Position Integrity Configuration

PRODUCTS AFFECTED:

G3X Touch Systems with Main Software Versions 9.10 through 9.13, interfaced to non-GPS versions of GTX™ 335R, 35R, 345R, and 45R transponders receiving GPS data using RS-232 are affected (this inlcudes all installations in which GPS is provided by either GNS WAAS Series navigators or a GPS 20A).

NOTE
Installations where GTN series navigators and GPS175/GNC355/GNX375 are connected to the transponder using HSDB are not affected.


ISSUE:

The affected software set the Position Integrity configuration setting to the equivalent of VFR GPS. This configuration setting may cause the following:

  • Unable to pass a ramp test
  • Other aircraft may not see the affected aircraft on the ADS-B traffic scope
  • Issuance of a non-compliance letter from the FAA


ACTION:

  1. Enter Configuration mode on the GDU™ 460 be pushing and holding the MENU button and applying power.
  2. Touch the Transponder section.
  3. Set the Position Integrity to ‘IFR GPS 1e-7.’


RESOLUTION:

This issue has been fixed in G3X Touch Main Software Version 9.14.
