FredG Posted Tuesday at 04:27 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 04:27 PM Hi all, Has anyone connected an OAT single probe to a G5 and GI275 EIS? My history is an initial install of a dual G5 + OAT a while back and recently got the GI275 EIS added in. I realised that the %age power indicator works with an OAT added in. My question is whether the already installed OAT connected to the G5s couldn't also feed the GI275 EIS? Does that make sense? Thanks for your input. F.

PT20J Posted Tuesday at 09:47 PM Report Posted Tuesday at 09:47 PM Your GTP 59 temperature probe connects to the G5 ADAHRS. The G5 ADAHRS should output the temperature data on the CAN Bus to be shared with other units. IF the GI 275 is connected to the CAN Bus, it may be able to get the temperature data. It all depends on if Garmin has the software set up to do this with the GI 275 is configured as an EIS. I would discuss it with a Garmin Dealer that really understands this stuff (not all do). Additionally, the dealers have access to a field support team that is often more knowledgeable about special configurations than the customer-facing support team.
