GENERAL DESCRIPTION 1.1 INTRODUCTION This manual describes the physical, mechanical, and electrical characteristics and the installation requirements for the GTX 330 Mode S Transponder and GTX 330D Diversity Mode S Transponder. In this manual, the term GTX 330 applies to both transponders unless otherwise stated. Information pertaining to the maintenance, alignment, and procurement of replacement parts is found in the GTX 330 Maintenance Manual, P/N 190-00207-05. After installation of the GTX 330, FAA Form 337 must be completed by an appropriately certificated agency to return the aircraft to service. 1.2 EQUIPMENT DESCRIPTION The Garmin GTX 330 is a panel mounted Mode S Transponder with the addition of timers, altitude reporting, mode S interrogation and reply, and multiple transmit/receive ARINC 429 and RS232 data ports. The Mode S transponder has the capability to transmit a unique address for every aircraft. The GTX 330 is a radio transmitter and receiver that operates on radar frequencies, receiving ground radar or TCAS interrogations at 1030 MHz and transmitting a coded response of pulses to ground-based radar on a frequency of 1090 MHz. The GTX 330 is equipped with IDENT capability that activates the Special Position Identification (SPI) pulse for 18 seconds. As with other Mode A/Mode C transponders, the GTX 330 replies with any one of 4,096 codes, which differ in the position and number of pulses transmitted. By replying to ground transmissions or TCAS interrogations, the GTX 330 enables ATC to display aircraft identification, altitude and ground speed as well as identification numbers on ATC radar screens or TCAS traffic indicators. The GTX 330 is configured with all key controls. The layout of the front panel keys and displays segregates the transponders primary functions from the secondary functions. The unit can be configured so the aircraft avionics master bus can turn the unit on. 1.3 INTERFACE SUMMARY The GTX 330 provides the following interface connections via the rear connector:

Ten (10) encoding altimeter inputs. External IDENT input. External STBY input. External suppression pulse input. Switched power output of up to 1.5 amps (for digital altitude encoder power).

INSTALLATION 2.1 INTRODUCTION This section provides the necessary information for installing the GTX 330 Mode S Transponder, and where required, optional accessories. Installation of the GTX 330 will differ according to equipment location and other factors. Cabling will be fabricated by the installing agency to fit these various requirements. Appendix B contains interconnect wiring diagrams, mounting dimensions, and information pertaining to installation. Each installation shall be accomplished to meet the requirements of FAA AC 43.13-2A. 2.2 UNPACKING AND INSPECTING EQUIPMENT Carefully unpack the equipment and make a visual inspection of the unit for evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If the unit is damaged, notify the carrier and file a claim. To justify a claim, save the original shipping container and all packing materials. Do not return the unit to GARMIN until the carrier has authorized the claim. Retain the original shipping containers for storage. If the original containers are not available, a separate cardboard container should be prepared that is large enough to accommodate sufficient packing material to prevent movement. 2.3 ANTENNA INSTALLATION 2.3.1 Location Considerations Figure 2-1. Antenna Installation Considerations A. The antenna (GARMIN P/N 010-10160-00) should be mounted away from major protrusions, such as engine(s), propeller(s), and antenna masts. It should also be as far as practical from landing gear doors, access doors, or other openings that could effect its radiation pattern. B. The antenna should be mounted on the underside of the aircraft and in a vertical position when the aircraft is in level flight. The diversity antenna should be mounted on the top of the aircraft. C. Avoid mounting the antenna within three feet of the ADF sense antenna or any other communication antenna and six feet from the DME antenna. D. To prevent RF interference, the antenna must be physically mounted a minimum distance of three feet from the GTX 330. GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 Page 2-1 Rev. 1 NOTE If the antenna is being installed on a composite aircraft, ground planes must sometimes be added. Conductive wire mesh, radials, or thin aluminum sheets embedded in the composite material provide the proper ground plane allowing the antenna pattern (gain) to be maximized for optimum transponder performance. 2.3.2 Antenna Installation Install the antenna according to the antenna manufacturers instructions and FAA AC 43.13-2A. 2.3.3 Installation Approval Considerations for Pressurized Aircraft Antenna and cable installations on pressurized cabin aircraft require FAA approved installation design and engineering substantiation data whenever such installations incorporate alteration (penetration) of the cabin pressure vessel by connector holes and/or mounting arrangements. For needed engineering support pertaining to the design and approval of such pressurized aircraft antenna installations, it is recommended that the installer proceed according to any of the following listed alternatives:

1. Obtain approved antenna installation design data from the aircraft manufacturer. 2. Obtain an FAA approved Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) pertaining to and valid for the subject antenna installation. 3. Contact the FAA Aircraft Certification Office in the appropriate Region and request identification of FAA Designated Engineering Representatives (DERs) who are authorized to prepare and approve the required antenna installation engineering data. 4. Obtain FAA Advisory Circular AC-183C and select (and contact) a DER from the roster of individuals identified thereunder. 5. Contact an aviation industry organization such as the Aircraft Electronics Association and request their assistance. Page 2-2 Rev. 1 GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 2.3.4 Antenna Cable Installation When routing antenna cables, observe the following precautions:

All cable routing should be kept as short as possible and as direct as possible. Avoid sharp bends. Avoid routing cables near power sources (e.g., 400 Hz generators, trim motors, etc.) or near power for fluorescent lighting. Avoid routing cable near ADF antenna cable (allow at least a 12-inch separation). The following table lists examples of the recommended antenna cable vendors and the type of cable to be used for specific lengths of cable. Any cable meeting specifications is acceptable for the installation. The maximum coaxial cable attenuation at 1090 MHz must not exceed 1.5 dB. Max.

GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 Page 2-3 Rev. 1 2.4 COOLING AIR The GTX 330 meets all TSO requirements without forced air-cooling. (The application of forced air cooling to the rear air nozzle of the GTX 330 provides beneficial cooling to the unit. The GTX 330 is designed to dissipate its internal heat without the need of blowing air inside the unit.) The GTX 330 was designed to handle a constant 450 PRF, with short periods of 1200 PRF. Rate limit is set at 1200 PRF. A typical radar site would interrogate the transponder once every 5 to 10 seconds for approximately 100 msec at a 400 PRF rate. In very high traffic areas with multiple ground stations and TCAS traffic it is possible to have long term PRF rates above 450 PRF. The GTX 330 measures the unit temperature and without forced air-cooling the reply rate will be reduced to protect the transmitter from overheating. 2.5 GTX 330 INSTALLATION NOTE Avoid installing the unit near heat sources. If this is not possible, insure that additional cooling is provided. Allow adequate space for installation of cables and connectors. The installer will supply and fabricate all of the cables. All wiring must be in accordance with FAA AC 43.13-2A. Figure 2-2 Unit Installation Considerations 1. Assemble the connector/rack kit according to figure 4-2. Install the rack assembly according to the dimensions given in figures 4-1 and paragraph 1.4.2 Physical Characteristics of the GTX 330. Mounting brackets are not supplied due to the wide range of mounting configurations available. Suitable mounting brackets may be fabricated from sheet metal or angle stock. To insure a sturdy mount, rear support for the unit must be provided. 2. Looking at the bottom of the transponder, make sure the front lobe of the locking mechanism is in a vertical position. This can be accomplished by using a 3/32 Allen wrench through the face plate. 3. Slide the unit into the rack until the front lobe of the unit touches the rack. 4. Turn the Allen wrench clockwise until unit is secured in the rack. Continue turning until tight. Do not overtighten the screw. 5. To remove the unit from the rack, turn the 3/32 Allen wrench counterclockwise until it disengages from the rack. Page 2-4 Rev. 1 GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 3.

POST INSTALLATION CONFIGURATION AND CHECKOUT PROCEDURE 5.1 OPERATION NOTE The coverage you can expect from the GTX 330 is limited to line of sight. Low altitude or antenna shielding by the aircraft itself may result in reduced range. Range can be improved by climbing to a higher altitude. It may be possible to minimize antenna shielding by locating the antenna where dead spots are only noticed during abnormal flight attitudes. Figure 5-1. GTX 330 Front Panel NOTE The GTX 330 should be turned off before starting aircraft engine(s). 5.1.1 Function Selector Switches The function selection switches are:

OFF Powers off the GTX 330. Pressing the STBY, ON or ALT key powers on the transponder displaying the last active identification code. STBY Selects the standby mode. When in standby mode, the transponder will not reply to any interrogations. ON Selects Mode A and Mode S. In this mode, the transponder replies to Mode A, Mode C and Mode S interrogations, as indicated by the Reply Symbol (), but the replies do not include altitude information. ALT Selects Mode A, Mode C and Mode S. In ALT mode, the transponder replies to identification, altitude and Mode S interrogations as indicated by the Reply Symbol (). Replies to altitude interrogations include the standard pressure altitude received from an external altitude source, which is not adjusted for barometric pressure. The ALT mode may be selected in aircraft not equipped with an optional altitude encoder; however, the reply signal will not include altitude information. GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 Page 5-1 Rev. 1 NOTE Any time the function switch is in the ON or ALT position the transponder becomes an active part of the Air Traffic Control Radar Beacon System (ATCRBS). The transponder also responds to interrogations from TCAS equipped aircraft. IDENT Pressing the IDENT key activates the Special Position Identification (SPI) Pulse for 18 seconds, identifying the transponder return from others on an air traffic controllers screen. During the IDENT period the word IDENT appears in the upper left corner of the display. VFR Sets the transponder code to the pre-programmed VFR code selected in Configuration Mode (Set to 1200 at the factory). Pressing the VFR key again will restore the previous identification code. FUNC Changes the page shown on the right side of the display. Display data includes Pressure Altitude, Flight Time, Count Up and Count Down timers. In the Configuration Mode, steps through the function pages. START/ STOP Starts and stops the Count Up, Count Down and Flight timers. In configuration mode, steps through functions in reverse. CRSR Initiates entry of the starting time for the Count Down timer and cancels transponder code entry. Selects changeable fields in Configuration Mode. CLR Resets the Count Up, Count Down and Flight timers. Cancels the previous keypress during code selection and Count Down entry. Used in Configuration Mode. 8 Reduces Contrast and Display Brightness when the respective fields are displayed and enters the number eight into the Count Down timer. Used in Configuration Mode. 9 Reduces Contrast and Display Brightness when the respective fields are displayed and enters the number eight into the Count Down timer. Used in Configuration Mode. 5.1.2 Code Selection Code selection is done with eight keys (0 7) providing 4,096 active identification codes. Pushing one of these keys begins the code selection sequence. The new code is not activated until the fourth digit is entered. Pressing the CLR key moves the cursor back to the previous digit. Pressing the CLR key when the cursor is on the first digit of the code, or pressing the CRSR key during code entry, removes the cursor and cancels data entry, restoring the previous code. You may press the CLR key up to five seconds after code entry is complete to return the cursor to the fourth digit. The numbers 8 and 9 are not used for code entry, only for entering a Count Down time, contrast and display brightness and in the Configuration Mode. NOTE The selected identification code should be entered carefully, either one assigned by air traffic control for IFR flight or an applicable VFR transponder code. Page 5-2 Rev. 1 GTX 330 Installation Manual 190-00207-02 Important Codes:

1200 The VFR code for any altitude in the US (Refer to ICAO standards elsewhere) 7000 The VFR code commonly used in Europe (Refer to ICAO standards) 7500 Hijack code (Aircraft is subject to unlawful interference) 7600 Loss of communications 7700 Emergency 7777 Military interceptor operations (Never squawk this code) 0000 Military use (Not enterable) Avoid selecting code 7500 and all codes in the 7600-7777 range. These codes trigger special indicators in automated facilities. An aircrafts transponder code is used for ATC tracking purposes, therefore exercise care when making routine code changes. 5.1.3 Function Display PRESSURE ALT Displays the altitude data supplied to the GTX 330 in feet, hundreds of feet (i.e., flight level), or meters, depending on configuration. FLIGHT TIME Displays the Flight Time, controlled by the START/STOP key or by one of three airborne sources (squat switch, GPS ground speed recognition or altitude increase) as configured during installation. The timer begins when the GTX 330 determines that the aircraft is airborne. ALTITUDE MONITOR Activates a voice alarm and warning annunciator when altitude limit is exceeded. COUNT UP TIMER Controlled by START/STOP and CLR keys. COUNT DOWN TIMER Controlled by START/STOP, CLR, and CRSR keys. The initial Count Down time is entered with the 0 9 keys. CONTRAST This page is only displayed if manual contrast mode is selected in Configuration Mode. Contrast is controlled by the 8 and 9 keys . DISPLAY This page is only displayed if manual backlighting mode is selected in Configuration Mode. Backlighting is controlled by the 8 and 9 keys.
