    What's the correct setup for this 4500s and 3400s and why doesn't synth vision work?

    Hi

    The final assembly is soon done, and we're now working with setting up and calibrating the EFIS'es.

    Today, we got the GPS up and running but the synethetic vision didn't work I think?

    Here's how it looked after the GPS had found our loaction:







    It even put the plane at the correct place on the airport:






    Here's a lat long pic:

    Now final assembly on my second -7; "Kermit"

    However I don't think I have done the setup 100% correct?
    Here's two of the setup's I've tried:









    Can anyone tell me how the lines 5 through 8 and 10, 11 and 12 schould look?
    I think that line # 2 is correct because the transponder displays an alitude in it's altitude window, but what about the other three serial ports?
    The only external devices is the AFS GPS and the Garmin GTX 328 transponder.

    We have hooked up the AFS GPS to the only port it's plug would fit: (the grey plug closest to the camera)




    Guess this is the correct place to hook up the AFS GPS? And what's the serial number of this port?


    Lastly: the 3D terrain doesn't work. The EFIS only displays blue sky and brown ground.
    Synth vision is activated in th setup, but maybe the Jeppesen database doesn't work for 3D vision in Europe?

    Thanks for any help...

    You need to post or email me a list of what devices are connected to each screen and serial port and I will send you the setup. The SV should work in Europe. info@advanced-flight-systems.com
