Installing the connector plate
1. Mount the connectors onto the connector plate, as shown in the diagram above.
NOTE: The D-Sub and BNC-BNC connector are mounted to the connector plate. The
BNC connector and retaining ring are installed onto the transponder backplate.
2. Find a location to secure the connector plate within the maximum cable length of 3 feet.

3. Wire the connector plate from the transponder to the connector plate following the wiring
diagram on the next page and using the cabling specified under “Additional
Components” above. There is a 3 foot maximum cable length.
4. Connect the ADS-B In receiver to the connector plate. If you are connecting a Stratus
portable receiver, an interface cable kit is available for purchase through approved
Appareo dealers.
Configuring the transponder
The transponder must be configured to allow for ADS-B In receiver information from the cockpit.
1. Enter into configuration mode on the transponder (while holding the FUNC key, press
and release the PWR key).
2. Press FUNC or the arrow keys to navigate to the “ADS-B In Capability” screen and press
ENT.
3. Use the arrow keys to select the frequency that the ADS-B receiver being used in the
aircraft is capable of.
• If you are using a Stratus 1 or 1S set the capability to UAT.
• If you are using a Stratus 2 or 2S set the capability to UAT and 1090 ES.
• If you do not know the frequency, select UAT.
4. Press ENT.
