I have a Dynon D-180 EFIS, GNS-430W and DigiFlight IIGPSV. I'm having a problem with the EFIS recognizing the GPS (“waiting for GPS fix”) and the autopilot flying a GPS approach. The ARINC 429 page on the GNS-430 is configured as follows:
Speed Data
IN 1 low EFIS/Airdata
IN 2 low Off
Out low GAMA-429

SDI: common
VNAV: Enable Lables

On the Dynon HS 34 ARINC page:

Input 1: Gama GPS
Input 2: Gama Nav

Speed: low
output data: On
output speed: low

Is this correct or should this be configured differently? Thanks, Steve.

Configuration looks correct. Are you getting GPSS on the AP? What is your procedure for coupling the WAAS approach? You must be in altitude hold mode for about 7 seconds before it can arm the glideslope. You must also be under the glideslope.
