GMX 200 Installation Manual 

Revision D 

190-00607-04 

5.5.8  Weather Radar Interface Checkout Procedure 

If a weather radar system has been connected to the GMX 200 I/O, the interface should be verified as 

described in this section. 

 

 

1.

 

Select the Weather Radar (RADAR) function on the GMX 200.  The RADAR should remain in the 

off state with no scanning occurring when the Weather Radar Function is entered for the first time.  

2.

 

Press the STBY/ON line select key to change the weather radar mode to Standby – allow 

approximately twenty seconds for the radar to power up. Verify that the weather radar powers up and 

performs the antenna clearance test. Once the unit is powered-up, the radar will be in standby mode. 

3.

 

Press the TEST line select key to place the weather radar in Test mode.  Verify that the test pattern is 

displayed. Press the range UP/DOWN keys if necessary until the test pattern can be seen. 

4.

 

For GWX 68 and ART 2000 installations, press the HORIZ/VERT line select key. Verify that the 

antenna scan changes from the horizontal scan to the vertical scan and the display changes to a 

vertical scan with the test pattern displayed. 

5.5.9  Garmin GDL 69/69A Checkout Procedure 

If a Garmin GDL 69 has been connected to the GMX 200 I/O, the interface should be verified as 

described section 5.5.9.1.  If a Garmin GDL 69A has been connected to the GMX 200 I/O, the interface 

should be verified as described sections 5.5.9.1 and 5.5.9.2.  Each of these procedures involves verifying 

that the satellite signal is acquired and tracked.  Locate the aircraft where there is a clear view of the 

southeastern or southwestern sky.  XM Satellite Radio satellites are located above the equator over the 

eastern and western coasts of the continental United States. 

 

NOTE 

The following sections only verify correct installation and activation of 

appropriate GMX 200 functions.  It does not activate the GDL 69 XM 

data link radio.  Complete instructions for activating the XM data link 

radio can be found in document 190-00355-04.  If the GMX 200 is not 

covered in this document, follow the instructions for the MX20.
