APPENDIX A INSTALLATION CONSIDERATIONS FOR UPGRADING FROM A 

GARMIN GMA 340

NOTE

This appendix contains installation considerations for upgrading from a Garmin 

GMA 340. This is not a set of comprehensive installation instructions for installing a 

Garmin GMA 342/345 in place of a Garmin GMA 340. Read this manual in its entirety 

before starting any installation.

A.1 Mechanical Considerations

• The GMA 340 installation rack is compatible with the GMA 342/345. Refer to 

Section 2.2

 of this 

manual for a list of installation materials.

• The GMA 340 connectors are compatible and may be reused.

If replacing a GMA 340 with a GMA 342/345, the GMA 340 (330-00220-25) connector backshells can be 

reused.  However, grounding the wire shields to the GMA 342/345 will be easier with the Garmin 

backshells in GPN 011-02302-00. The Garmin backshells also offer higher immunity to HIRF.  Current 

installations will not be required to change the backshell type, but would benefit from doing so.

A.2 Electrical Considerations

Figure A-1

 shows the GMA 340 pins that may need to be modified to accommodate the GMA 342/345.  

Refer to 

Section 4

 and 

Appendix C

 of this manual for a list of pin functions and interconnect examples.

NOTE

If the GMA 340 installation to be replaced has three COM transceivers, the GMA 345 

3-COM unit (Garmin PN 011-03520-20) should be used to accommodate the COM3 

interface.
