Hi Guys. I know some of you have done this. Which wire on a Garmin 296 is the one that connects to EFIS pin #22 on a Dynon 180? My guess is that it is the “DATA OUT 2”(violet) in the Power/Data connector cable. This wire is described as “to autopilot or NMEA device” I have already cut (cannibalized) that cable to get at the power wire so it's already accessible. Thank you.....Geoff

It looks like the your plan will work.
The RV-12s (all of them) are wired like this:
The Garmin x96 blue wire is connected to EMS pin 19 on the D-180. The FlightDEK-D180 Installation Guide also mentions this on the bottom of page 4-7.
On the RV-12, EFIS pins 9, 10, & 22 are used for communicating with a PC.
So there is more than one way to connect a GPS to the D-180.

Geoff,

Set your 296 Com output to either "Aviation IN/NMEA &VHF Out" or "NMEA In/NMEA Out." Either will work. Baud rate 0f 9600 was recommended.

Also make sure to go into the 296's advanced com menu and set up for "normal" output rate. Pages 116-119 of the 296 manual shows these set-up pages.

My Dynon and 296 have worked great together with these settings.

New question guys. I did in fact wire from the Garmin 296 to the Dynon using the DATA OUT 2(violet) wire.
When I install an ELT it will be the ACK-04 with GPS compatability. I imagine that it will be the same GPS wire (data 2 out (violet)) that I will need to send position data to the ELT. Assuming this is true, can I splice into that wire?........Geoff
