I?m trying to get Winds Aloft to display on my D-180 using RS232 data transfer from the Garmin 296.
I de-cluttered the D-180 to show Winds Aloft and there is now a blank space for the display below the trim indicator. My problem is getting the two units to ?talk? to each other. I have been in contact with Dynon and they gave me instructions on protocol and baud rate ? still no joy. Maybe my problem is in the Garmin. I?m trying to set both com1 and com2 to output either NMEA or Aviation at 9600 baud. I?m not sure if the Garmin is accepting my settings. Perhaps only one of the com channels should be programmed and the other set to ?none?.
Anyway it?s a long shot? but does anyone have idea how to get this to work?
