Function Notes
23 GS DOWN
24 GS UP Analog +/- 150 mV differential signals from Glideslope receiver. Pin 24
more positive than pin 23 indicates GS needle above center. Not used in RV 10
AP
25 Primary Serial Input. Baud rate selectable 1200, 2400, 4800 or 9600 baud. Automatically
decodes NMEA-0183, Garmin Aviation Format, or Apollo/UPSAT Moving-Map or GPSS
format. Provides directional reference to the autopilot.
26 ARINC-A
27 ARINC-B Digital differential signals from Garmin, Sierra, or other panel-mount receiver
which provide directional steering commands (GPSS) to autopilot
28 Roll Servo Torque Control. A signal from the autopilot to the roll (aileron) servo which sets
the amount of torque to be delivered by the servo.
29 Localizer mode signal. When floating or at power supply potential, the autopilot will assume
CDI signal represents a VOR deviation. When grounded, the autopilot will assume that CDI
represents a localizer signal with different flight dynamics, and in addition will allow coupling
to the Glideslope as well for an ILS approach. Some Nav receivers refer to this as the “ILS
Energize” function.
Not used in RV 10
AP
30 Auxiliary RS-232 Input. Presently unused, intended for future expansion.
31 No Connection. Reserved for future expansion.
Roll (aileron) Servo control lines. These lines cause the stepping motor in the roll servo to run
in the appropriate direction at the desired velocity. They are small-signal lines and do not have
any substantial current-carrying capability or require any special shielding. Connect to roll
servo as shown on wiring diagram.
