    Default 696/FD autopilot settings

    Could somebody please tell me the correct settings for the interface between the new 696 and the FD autopilot in the interface panel? (i.e. TIS in, NMEA/TIS, etc) I just want to go through and make sure all my settings are correct before I start a long X-C back to the dealer for 25hr checkup. Thanks, John

    We have the ADI Pilot II and just got our 696 installed. I'm picking it up Wednesday. I'll let you know where I set the autopilot activity.

    They trouble-shooted the AP/GPS problem and it was down to the pins inside the RS 232 device not making full contact. Just bent the pins VERY slightly to make contact and the problems disappeared. New 696 people, if you start to have intermittent information to your AP, make sure you have the wires in good contact when installing! Thanks Airtime!
