Hi,

I do not have any external GPS receiver like a 300,430,530 etc... But I do have the external AFS Autopilot (Trutrak). Do I need to have the ARINC module installed for that device or can I hook it up directly to one of my AFS 5600 units ?

The ARINC is required if you want the EFIS to drive the autopilot.

Thanks - that explains it and I certainly want the EFIS to drive the AP.
