4.2. Moving Map Connection Options
Option 1
The best option is to connect to the ARINC-429 bus from the FMS or bus concentrator that
contains the labels shown previously. This can be connected to either of the ARINC-429 inputs.
Option 2
Connect two different 429 buses. For example, connect to your GPS for most information, and to
another bus (airdata computer) to get the additional information.
Option 3
Connect to a NMEA-183 GPS RS-232 output from a GPS unit. This will yield less information
since some of the GPS units do not output route information with this, and many do not output
altitude.
Option 4
Connect to one or two ARINC-429 buses, and then connect to an RS-232 output from an airdata
computer or GPS (aviation RS-232 format) to get altitude and waypoint information.
With ARINC-429 connected, RosenView VX will always try to use the data there first, and then it
will look to the RS-232 connection if connected.
Some GPS’s output altitude in the type 1 (non-
NMEA) information string, but not on their ARINC bus.
Option 5
Connect the RS-232 input to a NMEA-183, ARNAV, or Shadin output from a GPS or other
instrument outputting this type of information.
