Looking to verify traffic audio inputs to audio panel. Since I will have Skyview Xpdr mode S, AFS ADSB with traffic, GTN650, AFS 5600---- will traffic audio come from ADSB, GTN650, AFS 5600 or all three, or is there even aural alert for traffic?
There is alert audio from GTN650- is this traffic audio?
I know these are smart units with data communications between all, but does the Garmin unit turn its back to the other non-Garmin units?

Our latest software in the AF-5000 plays audio alerts when a traffic target changes from a diamond to a circle. The 74112 ADS-B modules itself wouldn't have audio output, just serial to the AF-5000. The GTN-650 also has traffic warnings in its TCAD system.

So I'm assuming then that with the 74112 module I should get traffic to the 5600, the 5600 itself will initiate audio alerts when within a certain range?

Yes, the screen will handle the processing and alerts where the module is just a receiver.
