INDEX

• GTP 59 (2) – Provides Outside Air Temperature (OAT) data to the on-side GDC 74A.

• GSA 81 (4) and GSM 85 (4) – The GSA 81 servos are used for the automatic control of roll, pitch, and yaw,

and pitch trim. These units interface with each GIA 63W.

The GSM 85A servo gearbox is responsible for transferring the output torque of the GSA 81 servo actuator to

the mechanical flight-control surface linkage.

• GDL 69A (1)(optional) – A satellite radio receiver that provides real-time weather information to the G1000

MFD (and, indirectly, to the inset map of the PFD) as well as digital audio entertainment. The GDL 69A
communicates with the MFD via HSDB connection. A subscription to the XM Satellite Radio service is required
to enable the GDL 69A capability.

• GTX 33/33D (1)(optional) – Solid-state transponder that provides Modes A, C and S capability. Both

transponders can be controlled from either PFD, and only one transponder can be active at a time. Each
transponder communicates with the on-side GIA 63W through

an RS-232 digital interface.
