Rob - Do you have a sample wiring diagram for a STX-165R remote transponder and the 5600?

Rob - I have a Dual AFS 5600 setup. I have a Scandia 165R remote transponder attached to EFIS #2 (co-pilot) on Serial #2. The transponder squawk code will display on both EFIS #1 (pilot) and #2 (co-pilot). I show the XPDR menu option on both EFIS #1 and #2 but I am only able to control the remote transponder from EFIS #2. Pressing the (SET/XPDR) menu option from EFIS #1 does nothing. Is this a limitation or do I need to configure something differently?

Did you configure the Transponder menu on both screens for the Sandia?

Yes, both set for Sandia and enabled

Just realized I have another problem Rob... Although the EFIS display appears to show the unit responding to commands, turning off, on etc, it cannot be. The VPX shows it drawing 0.0 amps. :(

You need to call us from the plane to test a few things.
