| Can the axp340 transponder be configured as a remote (managed through the 540 interface)? |

No, the AXP340 uses the control head only. If you want the IFD to control the transponder, you'll need AXP322 ------------- Steve Lindsley Avidyne Engineering |

It would sure be nice if the IFD could control other remote transponders too, especially the uAvionix tailBeaconX. They publish the protocol (UCP-HD, used by their own AV-20/AV-30 control heads) and also support the Apollo protocol used by GRT and MGL. ------------- Vince |

+1 I may be forced into something like the tBX solution in the near future due to the need for transmission diversity. * Orest
