XTreme-EFIS Operating Manual Page 594.5.1 Altitude SetupALTITUDE UNIT:Select if you want the altitude displayed in ft (feet) or m (meters).PRESSURE UNIT:Select if you want the local pressure displayed in mB (millibars) or “Hg (inches of mercury).EFIS DENSITY ALTITUDE:This enables or disables the density altitude diisplay on the EFIS and MFD displays.ALTITUDE CALIBRATION FACTOR:On the rear of your XTreme instrument you will find the calibration factor that has been determined to ensure the mostaccurate reading of your altimeter. This is the value that should be entered here. Should you have access to an accuratereference you may use this function to calibrate your altimeter. Before you do this, ensure that your calibrated andcertified reference is set to the local pressure of 1013.25mB (29.92”HG). Your altimeter has been calibrated by the factoryto an accuracy of +/- one mB or approximately +/- 30 ft (10m) at sea level.SERIAL OUTPUT:Select “ON” to enable the RS232 serial altitude output. This formatted serial RS232 message can be directly interfaced tovarious RS232 serial input transponders. If a parallel Gillham output is required then a CNV-ALT2 can be purchased fromyour MGL Avionics distributor to convert the RS232 output to a parallel Gillham output. The RS232 is output on PIN 7(RS232 port 1 TXD)SERIAL PROTOCOL:Select the protocol of the serial RS232 output message. The protocol can be selected between GARMIN AT, Magellan,Northstar/Garmin, Trimble/Garmin, MGL Avionics and Microair UAV. Please note that the baud rate is automaticallyadjusted according to which protocol is selected. The output format is as follows. The message contains the currentpressure altitude with a fixed reference to 1013.25mB (29.92 inches mercury). All protocols use 8 databits, no parity, and1 stop bit. The message is outputted once a second.Protocol BaudRateMessage formatGarmin AT 1200 #AL, space, +/-, five altitude digits rightjustified zero padded, T+25, checksum,carriage returnExample#AL +02372T+25DF[CR]The checksum is a simple modulo 256 sumof the binary values of the individualcharacters. The checksum is sent as two
