SECTION II - Installation
2.1
GENERAL
This section provides general information for installing the Trimble 2000 Approach GPS Receiver. The cables will be
fabricated by the installation agency to fit these various requirements. This section contains interconnect diagrams, mounting
dimensions, and information pertaining to installation.
2.2
Physical Inspection
Unpack the equipment carefully and inspect each item for evidence of damage incurred during shipment. If a damage
claim must be filed, save the shipping container and all packing materials to substantiate your claim. The claim
should be properly filed with the transportation company. The shipping container should be saved in the event that
storage or reshipment of the equipment should become necessary.
2.2.2
Electrical Inspection
Each new Trimble 2000 Approach is tested and adjusted during final inspection at Trimble before shipment.
Normally, unless damage is evident, it is not necessary to do a pre-installation electrical inspection.
2.3
EQUIPMENT INSTALLATION
2.3.1
Cooling Considerations
The greatest single contributor to increased reliability of avionics is to limit the maximum operating temperature of
the individual units, whether panel or remote mounted. While circuit designs today consume far less electrical
energy, the watts per cubic inch dissipated within avionics units still remains much the same due to high density
packaging techniques. Consequently, the importance of providing avionics cooling is essential to the life span of
the unit.
While each individual unit may or may not require forced air cooling, the combined heat load of several units operating
in a typical avionics location will significantly degrade the reliability of avionics if provisions for cooling are not
incorporated in the initial installation. Failure to provide cooling will certainly lead to increased avionics maintenance
costs and may void the Trimble Navigation Warranty.
2.3.2
The installation agency must supply and fabricate all external cables. The length and routing of external cables must
be carefully studied and planned before proceeding with the installation of the equipment. Avoid sharp bends or
routing the cable too close to aircraft control cables and power sources. When necessary to cross power cables,
use shielded cable and cross at right angles. Take special precaution when transitioning pressure envelopes. Use
cable to connector sealant. Figure 2-1 is the pin-out diagram and Figure 2-7 is a typical system interconnection.
Revision A
January 6, 1995
Page 2-1
2.3.3
The GPS antenna installation kit is included in all of the shipping kits. The GPS Antenna installation kit contains the
GPS Antenna, the GPS antenna cable, and the required connectors. Proper antenna installation is critical to both
the performance of the system and the aircraft's structural integrity.
2.3.3.1 Location
In order to receive transmissions from GPS satellites, the GPS antenna must be in line-of-sight with the satellite.
Therefore, the most important factor in GPS antenna installation is determining which location on the fuselage
affords the least amount of airframe blockage. Always mount the antenna on the top of the fuselage, never on
the underside. Also, mount the antenna so that the mounting holes are perpendicular to the line of flight. Select
a mounting location at least three (3) feet away from any transmitting antenna.
On fixed wing aircraft, the best mounting location is usually above the cabin, near the front, and as close to the
center line as possible.
Install as far from the main rotor hub as possible. At a given RPM, the linear velocity of the blade
increases as the distance from the rotor hub increases. Since the blade blocks the line-of-sight GPS
satellite signal, the effect will be reduced further away from the rotor hub.
B.
If under the blade, get as far below the blade as possible to minimize signal distortions from the blade
edges, which decrease as the distance from the blade increases.
2.3.3.3 Wiring
A GPS cable assembly (P/N 14719-00) is supplied as part of the system. The supplied cable is 20 feet long.
An alternate 50 foot long prefabricated cable is available from Trimble (P/N 14719-01). For installations longer
than 50 feet, the installation agency is responsible for the fabrication of the cable (see Section 1.5.2). The
included cable assembly is tested prior to shipment and should be used to ensure proper performance. Take
care when routing cable to avoid kinking and sharp bends. If antenna cable is routed through bulkheads, be
sure to install protective material to avoid chafing.
2.3.3.4 Installation
CAUTION
Before drilling aircraft fuselage and/or mounting adapter holes to receive the GPS Antenna, make certain
the hole pattern for the antenna is oriented with respect to its forward direction.
After a suitable mounting location is identified, position and affix the adhesive-backed mounting template
supplied with the antenna, refer to Figures 2-2, 2-3 & 2-4. Drill the holes and install the supplied (or equivalent)
antenna doubler. Be sure to remove the mounting template prior to installing the antenna.
Page 2-2
Revision B
February 23, 1995
CAUTION
Do not tighten screws with more than 20 inch-pounds of torque. Damage to antenna will result and void
warranty. Torque value = 18 2 inch-pounds.
Install screws through antenna, gasket, and aircraft skin into captive nut plates. Tighten the screws to 18 2
inch-pounds of torque. Use non-corrosive RTV or similar sealant to seal around antenna base and screw holes.
CAUTION
Do not tighten screws with more than 28 inch-pounds of torque. Damage to antenna will result and void
warranty.
Install screws through antenna and aircraft skin into captive nut plates. Tighten the screws to 26 2 inch-pounds
of torque.
2.3.4
2.3.4.1 Location
Select a mounting location that will allow easy viewing of the unit's display during normal instrument panel scan
and allow easy access to the front panel controls. After the desired mounting location is identified, refer to
Figures 2-5 and 2-6 for unit outline and mounting dimensions for the unit and the mounting tray. Relocate
existing equipment as necessary.
2.3.4.4 Wiring
The external wire supplied by the installing agency should be 22 gauge with the exception of the serial
communication connections (pins 3, 4, 5, 15, 16, and 17). Serial communication connections require 22 or 24
gauge twisted shielded pairs. Refer to pin-out diagram Figure 2-1. For CDI/HSI interconnections, refer to Figure
2-8. For Serial Port Interconnections, refer to Figure 2-9.
These considerations should be followed to ensure proper interface.
A.
Audio output (pin 20) impedance is 600 . The CDI common (pins 18 and 22) may be used for Audio
Common.
B.
The Message annunciator (MSG), pin 23, Hold annunciator (HLD), pin 12, Waypoint Alert annunciator
(WPT), pin 24, and Approach annunciator (APR), pin 11 duplicate the annunciators on the front panel.
These pins are connected to open-collector transistors which may sink a maximum of 200 mA. Should
they be connected to a relay for higher current capability, the relay must have a protection diode placed
across the coil. The pins will be sinking current when the annunciator condition is true.
C.
Jumper the Safeguard Enable (pin 21) to the CDI Common (pin 22) at the rack connector to ensure
operation of the theft protection circuit.
D.
Serial Port 1 (pins 3, 4, 15, and 16) is designed for signals adhering to the RS-422 standard. If singleended RS-232 signals are used, an adapter (Trimble P/N 12480-00) should be used to maximize noise
immunity. The signals will work with most RS-232 devices without an adapter, but at some loss of noise
immunity.
Revision A
January 6, 1995
Page 2-3
2.3.5
E.
Serial Port 2 (pins 5 and 17) is a single-ended TTL output which meets the logic polarity requirements
of RS-232. The port 2 output does not meet all of the requirements of the RS-232 standard, so in some
installations an adapter (Trimble P/N 12480-00) may be required. If RS-422 differential signals are
required, an adapter (Trimble P/N 12480-00) must be used.
F.
Only a single device may be connected to each serial input port (RXD1 and RXD2). Up to 5 devices may
be connected in parallel to each serial output port (TXD1 and TXD2), provided that all devices in parallel
use the same message format and data rate (e.g., K0 at 9600 baud).
G.
Pin 19 will be supplied from the factory as a 14 Vdc or 28 Vdc Superflag driver. A jumper may be moved
inside the unit to change pin 19 to provide One Pulse-Per Second (PPS) output. The One PPS output
is a TTL pulse, 1 ms wide, occurring once per second (referenced to CDI common pin 18 or 22). When
GPS time is available, the leading edge of One PPS is synchronized to GPS time within 1 ms.
CAUTION: Do not connect pin 19 directly to GND.
If an Outside Air Temperature Probe is installed, a Temperature Recovery Coefficient, known as the "K" factor,
should be set to correct True Airspeed for temperature rise at the probe. The OAT "K" factor is set to 1.0 at the factory.
Contact the OAT probe manufacturer for infomation on selecting this value. Refer to the Pilot Guide for instructions
on how to set the OAT "K" factor.

GENERAL
This section contains installation checkout, system configuration, and basic operating procedures. More detailed operating
procedures are contained in the Pilot Guide.
3.2
SYSTEM CHECKOUT
3.2.1
Preliminary test
Before the unit is installed and tested, verify the accuracy of the installation. With the unit removed, turn on the power
and verify the following:
1.
Verify that Aircraft dc bus voltage is present on pins 1 and 2. Also, if external annunciators are installed, verify
that voltage is present on pins 11, 12, 23, and 24.
2.
3.
4.
Make sure the mounting tray is securely fastened and properly braced.
5.
Verify that the GPS antenna connector is not shorted and demonstrates some play.
When the above conditions are verified, turn off the master power. Slide the unit into the mounting tray and tighten
the locking device. Turn on the unit. During initialization, the unit performs a comprehensive diagnostics routine.
A failure of any system component is annunciated by a flashing "Fail" message adjacent to the relevant category.
This failure will cause the Message (MSG) annunciator to light and remain lit. Consult the Pilot Guide for more
information concerning FAIL messages.
3.2.2
The Receiver/Display unit requires configuration for each serial port to be utilized. Press the
INSTALL submode is activated. The display below is shown briefly.
*INSTALL*
Rotate the small, inner selector knob until the display below is shown.
SERIALI/OSETUP
TURNOUTERKNOB
Rotate the large, outer selector knob until the desired port is shown. Serial port 1 is set to a default value of Encoder
and the output is set to a default value of K0. These settings will be correct for most installations. To edit this port,
press the
key. Choose the field to edit with the large, outer selector knob. Change the settings by rotating
Page 3-1
3.2.3
Prior to performing the GPS receiver test, make sure the aircraft is outside and away from any tall buildings or objects
which will obstruct the line-of-sight communication between the unit's antenna and the satellites.
*SENSORSTATUS*
Rotate the large, outer selector knob until a display similar to the one below is shown.
GPSTRACK6:
21819272931
This display indicates the number of satellites being tracked (6) as well as identifying each satellite tracked (by
number). A flashing satellite number indicates a satellite which is being tracked but not being used in the position
solution. The GPS annunciator on the Trimble 2000 Approach front panel indicates that sufficient satellites are
being used to provide position updates.
2.
While observing the GPS satellites tracked display and internal GPS annunciator, key the VHF transmitter
for 20 seconds.
3.
If the number of satellites in use drops to the point that GPS navigation is no longer possible (GPS
annunciator illuminates), then too much interference exists between VHF radio and the Trimble 2000
Approach.
Two common sources of interference are from the VHF radio front panel to the GPS antenna and from the
VHF antenna to the GPS antenna.
To minimize front panel to antenna interference, ensure that all cabin doors and windows are closed when
performing the test. This type of interference is also minimized by being away from the ground and ground
structures. If required, the test may be performed in flight. Finally, the location of the GPS antenna may
affect levels of VHF front panel to GPS antenna interference.
Page 3-2
Revision D
November 4, 1996
For VHF antenna to GPS antenna interference, a filter may be inserted in line with the VHF transmission
line.
The following filters are recommended:

INTRODUCTION
Serial communication capabilities for the Trimble 2000 Approach are provided by two bi-directional serial communication
ports compatible with EIA RS-232 and RS-422 protocols. Different formats may be selected on each port providing the user
flexibility in interfacing various systems with the Trimble 2000 Approach.
All information contained in this section is subject to change without notice.
B.2
RS-422
The RS-422 protocol uses differential signals with a magnitude in the range of 2-6 volts and a polarity as follows:
Logic 1: The non-inverting (+) signal is negative with respect to the inverting (-) signal (Signal Condition = MARK).
Logic 0: The non-inverting (+) signal is positive with respect to the inverting (-) signal (Signal Condition = SPACE).
RS-422 has the capability of driving up to ten receive devices in parallel from a single transmitter. It can drive long
cable lengths and has superior noise immunity.
B.2.2
RS-232
The RS-232 protocol specifies a bipolar, unbalanced signal referenced to a common ground (serial common). For
example, for RS-232D, the polarity is as follows:
Logic 1: The transmitter voltage is between -5V and -15V (Signal Condition = MARK).
Logic 0: The transmitter voltage is between +5V and +15V (Signal Condition = SPACE).
B.2.3
RS-423
The RS-423 protocol specifies a bipolar, unbalanced signal referenced only to the transmitter's ground and is
received differentially. The polarity is as follows:
Logic 1: The transmitter voltage is -4V to -6V (Signal Condition = MARK).
Logic 0: The transmitter voltage is +4V to +6V (Signal Condition = SPACE).

Air Data messages are accepted when the serial port is set to "ENCODER". A packet consists of a set of ASCII
message strings. The first character of each packet is an ASCII Start-of-Text (STX = 02H). The last character of
each packet will be an ASCII End-of-Text (ETX = 03H).
Each message string begins with one ASCII character to identify it as an Air Data message ("Z"). The second
character identifies which message it is. The rest of the string consists of one or more alphanumeric ASCII fields.
Each message field ends with a carriage return, line feed (CR = 0D0AH). All numeric fields are ASCII decimal, right
justified and zero filled. If the Air Data Computer cannot supply data in a particular field, the field is filled with dashes
("-" = 2DH). The table on the next page lists the valid message strings.

TRANSMIT PORTS
B.6.1
Configuration
Transmit Ports 1 and 2 (TXD1 and TXD2) provide interface capability with a variety of peripheral devices such as
moving maps and fuel flow computers, as well as providing data to users for custom applications. Adapters are
available for each port to provide RS-422 and/or RS-232 signals. No hand-shaking lines are provided.
Six data formats are available for use and may be selected in the INSTALL submode of the AUX mode (See Section
B.4). These formats are RNAV 0 and 1 (R0 and R1), King 0 and 1 (K0 and K1), and Extended King 0 and 1 (X0 and
X1). Formats R0 and R1 may be set to any baud rate (from 1200 baud to 38.4 kbaud, excepting 19.2 kbaud) while
formats K0, K1, X0, and X1 may only be set to 9600 baud or 38.4 kbaud. The update rate may be set from 1 to 999
seconds for any of the formats. The only exception is if the baud rate is 1200. For this case, the maximum update
rate is 2 seconds.
The data stream is a string of ten-bit serial ASCII characters consisting of one start bit, eight data bits, and one stop
bit. No parity is generated.
Data messages begin with an ASCII Start of Text (STX) character and end with an End of Text (ETX) character. A
single alphabetic character precedes each data element.
The data output format is as follows: <STX><id><dddd><it><id><dddd><it>....<id><dddd><it><ETX>
Where: STX

Data output is identical for both formats with the exception of the end of line codes. R0 is output with a carriage return
(CR) denoting the end of the line. R1 is output with both a carriage return (CR) and a line feed (LF) at the end of a
line.

The K0 and the K1 formats present all the R0 and R1 information explained in the last section. In addition, the K0
and K1 formats add flight plan information. Each waypoint is sent as a separate line terminated with a CR (for K0)
and a CR, LF (for K1). The waypoint data lines are followed by a line of waypoint type identifiers. If no flight plan
is active, no flight plan data will be transmitted.

Waypoint Type
This indicates the type of waypoints in the flight plan according to flight plan order (e.g., Airport, VORs, NDBs,
Intersections, or User). The number of waypoints in the flight plan determines the number of bytes in this field (5
waypoints in the flight plan makes this field 5 bytes long). The format is as follows:

X0 and X1 Formats
The X0 and X1 formats contain all of the items of the K0 and K1 formats plus the following additional items. No field
width is set for any of the items. The fields are separated by one or more blanks. The decimal point is included for
those items listing fractional units. Leading zeros and a space between the item designator are optional and may
not appear on some items. All fields are in ASCII. Any item designator not specified is reserved for Trimble use.
