- Assembled connectors for GAD 29. The GAD 29 allows the GTN 650 navigator to share data with the G3X system.
- Started wiring the two main GTN 650 connectors
- Started wiring the two GMA 245R audio panel connectors - all of the audio panel and GTN navigator connectors use high density pins which are smaller and more of a hassle to work with.
- Modified the CAN bus plan so I can assemble the GTN 650 connector on the bench. I have 3 devices that will to have their connectors assembled in the aircraft due to the layout of the CAN bus.
- Connected the configuration module for the GDU 460 primary flight display. This is essentially a memory chip that is mounted inside the connector and stores all system setup data so that if you have to swap a unit out for maintenance you won't loose your aircrafts specific setup data.
- Finished the main GDU 460 connector
