The pinout diagram for the ARINC 429 is unclear where pins 4-8 & 17-20 need to go. Can somebody please clarify?

Hi Noah,

It's my understanding that those pins are unused if using ARINC to/from the GNS-430(W) - that is, if you are using the 430(W) or something similar. I believe the purpose of the drawing was to describe the function of the pins rather than to indicate that a wire was to be attached to them.

Regards,
