Equipment TT22 with TN72 GPS Source , Experimental  Aircraft

*******Trig Guidance on ADS-B Equipment for Experimental and Standard Class Gliders Airspace********

If you have a TT22 transponder fitted already you do need to be aware that the transponder software version must be 2.10 or higher and transponder controller  TC20 software version must be 1.12 or higher

Give Mid Continent Instruments a call they will update the software.

How does the compact fit or full round installation work?
All units ship with the necessary parts to enable you to choose to install the radio either as a compact mount or 2 ¼ “ full round.  If a full round mounting is required then you simply fit the included plastic blanks above and below the body of the TC90 controller.

Airspeed Switch

To confirm correct operation while sitting on ground, turn the transponder mode knob to alt and the display should say grd, then you can increase pitot pressure to above the stall speed setting and the transponder display will switch to alt.

If you fly in wave without this switch your ground speed may be very low and ATC will think you are on the ground.

AIR PRESSURE SWITCH/Normally open, 42 knots, adjustable.

Turn Adjustment screw clockwise approx 1/8 turn to decrease 10 Kts.  Switch is very sensitive.

Equipment TT22 with TN70 GPS , Standard Airworthiness Certificate

Capabilities:

3) SIL=3 (Trig TT22 (not TT21) with either a TN72 GPS in an experimental glider or TN70 GPS in a type certified glider). This is a fully 14 CFR 91.227 2020 ADS-B Out compliant system and provides the following capabilities for your glider.

•  Has all the standard transponder capabilities, including ATC SSR visibility and PCAS, TCAD and TCAS compatibility.
•  Is visible to portable 1090ES In traffic displays (e.g. a Stratus or Stratux receiver driving EFB software).
•  Is visible to PowerFLARM (with ADS-B In Option)
•  Is visible to certificated fixed install 1090ES In traffic displays in GA aircraft and above
•  Is visible to UAT In equipped aircraft - via ADS-R rebroadcast by the ground infrastructure to suitably equipped client aircraft
•  Is NOT shown as a TIS-B target to client aircraft when within SSR coverage (since the system is using ADS-R to show you as a more precise target to those clients)
•  Does (if properly configured) make your glider a client of ADS-B ground based services so you can see other traffic vis ADS-R and TIS-B (but remember PowerFLARM cannot display ADS-R or TIS-B traffic).
•  Is visible to ATC via ADS-B (including outside of SSR coverage)
•  Does provide flight privilege in airspace in 14 CFR 91.225 that requires ADS-B Out, remembering gliders already have some exemptions there
• ADS-B Out installations may require you upgrade firmware on your Trig transponder, TABS/SIL=1 use requires the TT21/TT22 has firmware 2.12 or higher, SIL=3/2020 compliant use requires firmware 2.7 or higher. Updating the firmware requires a (no charge besides shipping) return to the Mid-Continent Trig's USA service partner  Mid Continent can also upgrade a TT21 to TT22 for around $900.

How does the compact fit or full round installation work?
All units ship with the necessary parts to enable you to choose to install the radio either as a compact mount or 2 ¼ “ full round.

The TT21 is a very interesting new transponder.  It is a Mode S transponder with a built-in altitude encoder, and a remote head.

The TT21 is a Class 2 transponder.  The TT22 is a Class 1 transponder - certified for use up to 35,000 feet.  If you plan to fly over 15,000 feet, you will probably want the TT22 .

• Low Weight - less than 500 grams!
• Minimal Panel Space
• Low Power Consumption
• 130 Watts Nominal Output
• Integrated Altitude Encoder
• Simple Installation
• Easy to use rotary knobs
• Support for 1090ES ADS-B Out

The TT22 is a Class 1 transponder - certified for use up to 35,000 feet.  The TT21 (above) is a Class 2 transponder - certified for use up to 15,000 feet.  If you plan to fly over 15,000 feet, you will probably want the TT22 (this one).

• Low Weight - less than 500 grams!
• Minimal Panel Space
• Low Power Consumption
• 250 Watts Nominal Output
• Integrated Altitude Encoder
• Simple Installation
• Easy to use rotary knobs
• Support for 1090ES ADS-B Out

TN72 ADS-B GPS

TN72 currently can only be paired with a Trig transponder.  1090 ES

If the customer already has a TT21 or TT22 transponder fitted already they do need to be aware that the transponder software version must be 2.12 or higher and transponder controller software version must be 1.14 or higher and if they have a TT31 transponder software version must be 3.16 or higher.  Software updates are offered free of charge via Mid Continent Instruments and Avionics.
