I think that's what I said, but maybe I missed Jessie's post saying the same thing. My girl cousin is Jessie. I'm Jesse.
600EXP arrived couple days ago. I was # 39. Installed and connected the antennas today ,had previously wired power ground and transmonSPE several months ago. Im using a GRT 327 BUT have the transmonSPE option due to older transponder installed at time of the Navworx order. Will be using IFly 720 for weather and traffic via the wifi. Have the external GPS antenna option.
Couple of questions for those who have already done this. (1) Assume I will chose the option for transmonSPE altitude and squawk since the Mode C GRT 327 receives altitude from Dynon 180. (2) what baud rate should the display option be set to. ? (3) Do I need internet connection for the set up.? (4) Where does the HEX code address come from and is this an entry I make?
Will power up tomorrow and attempt the set up.
Does anyone have results from mounting a 600EXP behind the baggage compartment bulkhead and using the wifi to forward data to a panel mounted or ipad device? Just curious if the wifi worked well if antenna is hidden behind the baggage bulkhead. Guess you could however extend the wifi antenna thru with short piece of RG. Its just connected with a SMA connector.
Made first flt with NavWorx 600EXP today. Everything worked perfectly. Wx , Traffic reports and checked in with Chattanooga Apr. All appears to be working well from this side. I ll request the FAA report and let you know what they say.
I've been running my ADS600-EXP for a few weeks now. Today I took an IFR trip to Naples, traveling from KBKV around Tampa to the west. It's really nice to see the weather on the GRT displays.
But I've seen something that has me stumped: On multiple system power-ups, I've had the ADS600-EXP not find the GPS sats. Each time I've had to cycle the ADS600-EXP power to get the unit properly booted up and running. (Please note that this occurs AFTER engine start.)
I also saw this type of GPS failure (always verified on the PC wireless app) when doing aerobatics: once it lost the GPS signal, the unit would not re-aquire it again until the power was cycled.
Has anyone else seen this type of behavior? Is this something that Bill Moffett should be made aware of?
Don't you have to be in the air to get ADS B Weather info? ie, nothing on the ground? Or am I mixing apples and oranges here. I ask, because I'm a future NavWorx owner.
Fred , do you have internal GPS antenna or external GPS antenna option ?
Has anybody who ordered in April or later received their units? I was told a couple weeks ago that I should expect mine the following Monday, then got a email on Monday that they had production issues and would be delayed.
I am installing my second ADS600-EXP. I have a GRT EFIS and a Garmin 496 in the plane. I would like to send traffic to both the EFIS and the 496. Looks like I must choose one or the other as under configuration the display setup is either "pass through" for the EFIS or TIS-A (GPSMAP 396, 496, 696, etc).
Can traffic be sent to both an EFIS and a 496?
I'm not familiar with the 496.
Can the 496 receive data via wifi?
If so, hard wire the GRT and get wifi info to the 496.
I'm not sure whether the wire from the EXP can be split. A Bill question.

BTW, the traffic & weather display on the GRT is far superior than it was on my iFly720. Just sayin'
I would like to accept the looks good from email reply I received from navworx. When the compliance report has an area in bright red I presume that is out of compliance. Am I wrong? Is there a list somewhere listing max deviations allowable before it is classified as out of compliance?I'd go with what Bill said, but FWIW, mine was 0% fail on those catorgories, but several others had .09% fail. Which seems odd as they all had .09% fail rate. Makes me think it's in the noise, but in any event, the comment from the Feds was "looks good"
Fly somewhere and get another report, could just be the ground equipment.

In our understanding, if anything is red on the report you are not in compliance. They have thresholds for each item, and if you violate any single one of those there is an issue. You don't get to fail a few.
Generically ADS-B is only supposed to have an error rate of 0.00003%. Most reports show 0% failures for all items, so if you really are failing 0.4% of the time something is likely up.
Note Balt is from your altitude encoder, so look into how your ADS-B system is getting baro altitude.
(3) The aircraft must transmit its position and velocity at least once per second while airborne or while moving on the airport surface.
(4) The aircraft must transmit its position at least once every 5 seconds while stationary on the airport surface.
(1) The aircraft must transmit its geometric position no later than 2.0 seconds from the time of measurement of the position to the time of transmission.
For uncertified equipment, the owner should obtain a statement of compliance from the supplier, along with installation instructions, that identifies that the ADS-B equipment complies with section 3 requirements of the applicable TSO and that, when installed in accordance with the installation instructions, complies with the aircraft requirements of 14 CFR 91.227. The FAA expects manufacturers to perform appropriate engineering efforts to ensure the equipment complies with all requirements of Section 3 of the TSO before issuing their statement of compliance, and expects installers to consider the guidance in the current version of AC 20-165 when performing the installation.
Owners of experimental aircraft should retain the statement of compliance from the equipment supplier in the aircraft records to assist in resolving in-service issues, should they arise. The FAA monitors compliance to the ADS-B Out requirements, and if the equipment, or an installation, is determined to be noncompliant the operator may not be able to enter the airspace designated in 14 CFR 91.225 until the equipment or installation is brought into compliance.
(1) Barometric Altitude. The ADS-B equipment must update the barometric altitude based on the real-time barometric altitude provided by the barometric altitude source.
I just contacted Navworx and asked how long for delivery of a 600EXP if I order it today.
Replay was, Mid March
What are the chances that this is a true delivery date?
On Feburary 2nd NavWorx EXP came out of the shadows and onto my front porch. ( after 9 months) Thanks, Bill Now installed and working...
