1 GENERAL DESCRIPTION
1.1 Introduction
This manual presents mechanical and electrical installation requirements for installing the GIA 63(W) as
part of a Garmin Integrated Flight Deck. The GIA 63(W) can be integrated into a variety of airframes
under an appropriate TC or STC. Each airframe installation may vary. Use only approved (type or
supplemental type) data for specific installation instructions in a particular aircraft.
1.2 Equipment Description
The GIA 63(W) is a microprocessor-based input/output Line Replaceable Unit (LRU) used in a Garmin
Integrated Flight Deck. The GIA 63(W) communicates with the GDU via Ethernet high-speed data bus
(HSDB), and with other LRUs using RS-232, RS-485/422, and ARINC 429. All configuration is done
through the GDU. The GIA 63(W) contains the following sub-assemblies:
• A main processor that interfaces with all LRUs in the G1000 sub-system and performs
calculations for the GFC 700 autopilot (if equipped).
• A twelve channel parallel GPS receiver that simultaneously tracks and uses up to 12 satellites.
The GIA 63W includes a 15 channel WAAS certified GPS receiver.
• A VHF COM transceiver that provides tuning from 118.00 to 136.992 MHz in 25 kHz or
8.33 kHz spacing for 760 or 2280 channel configuration respectively.
• A VOR/ILS localizer receiver that provides tuning from 108.00 to 117.95 MHz in 50 kHz
increments.
• An ILS glideslope receiver that provides tuning from 328.6 to 335.4 MHz as paired with the
frequency tuned on the VOR/ILS localizer receiver.
CAUTION
The operation of unapproved cellular telephones or other unapproved cellular devices
aboard aircraft while airborne is prohibited by FCC rules. Due to the potential for
interference with onboard systems, the operation of unapproved cellular communication
devices while onboard an aircraft that is on the ground is subject to FAA regulations
14 CFR 91.21.
FCC regulation 47 CFR 22.925 prohibits airborne operation of unapproved cellular
telephones installed in or carried aboard aircraft. Unapproved cellular telephones must
not be operated aboard any aircraft while the aircraft is off the ground. When any aircraft
leaves the ground, all unapproved cellular telephones on board that aircraft must be
turned off.
Unapproved cellular telephones that are on, even in a monitoring state, can disrupt GPS
performance.

RS-422 channel)
• 8 RS-232 input/output channels
• 41 Discrete inputs
• 14 Discrete outputs
• 24 Annunciator outputs
1.3.2 Additional Interfaces
The GIA 63(W) can provide interfaces for the following additional equipment:
• Autopilot
• Altitude encoder/serializer
• Fuel management systems
• Lightning detection systems
• Traffic awareness systems
• Data link systems
• External annunciators

1.5 License Requirements
The Telecommunications Act of 1996, effective February 8, 1996, provides the FCC discretion to
eliminate radio station license requirements for aircraft and ships. The GIA 63(W) installation must
comply with current transmitter licensing requirements. To find out the specific details on whether a
particular installation is exempt from licensing, please visit the FCC web site
http://wireless.fcc.gov/aviation
Transmitter Description: Aviation-band VHF transceiver with 25 and 8.33 kHz channel spacing.
Antenna Characteristics: Broad band, 50 ohm, vertically polarized.
Rated Power: 16 Watts
Emission Type: 6K00A3E
Frequency of Operation: 118.00 – 136.992 MHz
If an aircraft license is required, make application for a license on FCC form 404, application for Aircraft
Radio Station License. The FCC also has a fax-on-demand service to provide forms by fax. The GIA
63(W) owner accepts all responsibility for obtaining the proper licensing before using the transmitter.
International transmitter license procedures vary by country. Contact the local spectrum agency for
license requirements.
.
CAUTION
The VHF transmitter in this equipment is guaranteed to meet federal communications
commission acceptance over the operating temperature range. Modifications not
expressly approved by Garmin could invalidate the license and make it unlawful to
operate the equipment.
1.6 Certification
The GIA 63 GPS receiver is certified for IFR enroute, terminal, and non-precision approaches. The GIA
63W GPS receiver is WAAS certified.
The GIA 63(W) has been qualified to RTCA/DO-160 Section 20 RF susceptibility and Section 22
lightning requirements. Special installation considerations are required, refer to the Environmental
Qualification Form.
The GIA 63(W) meets the requirements for GPS as a Primary Means of Navigation for Oceanic/Remote
Operations per FAA Notice N8110.60.
The GIA 63(W) is eligible for B-RNAV in accordance with AMC 20-4.
Eligible for PRNAV in accordance with PRNAV requirements: JAA Administrative & Guidance
Material Section One: General Part 3: Temporary Guidance Leaflets, Leaflet No 10: Airworthiness and
Operational Approval for Precession RNAV Operations in Designated European Airspace 7.1 Required
Functions.
The conditions and tests required for TSO approval of this article are minimum performance standards. It
is the responsibility of those installing this article either on or within a specific type or class of aircraft to
determine that the aircraft installation conditions are within the TSO standards. TSO articles must have
separate approval for installation in an aircraft. The article may be installed only if performed under 14
CFR part 43 or the applicable airworthiness requirements. At the time of publication, installations of this
TSO approved article are only approved when installed in an aircraft as part of a Garmin Integrated Flight
Deck.

ETSO-C145
1. Garmin was granted a deviation from TSO-C145a to use DO-160E instead of DO-160D.
2. Garmin was granted a deviation from RTCA/DO-229C paragraphs 2.1.1.10, 2.1.1.7,
2.1.1.8.1, 2.1.1.8.2, 2.1.1.9, 2.1.2.1, 2.1.3.1, 2.1.4.1.4, 2.1.4.1.5 and 2.1.5.1 in the form of
an operational limitation to achieve an equivalent level of safety. This operational limitation
applies to the GIA63W with GPS software version 2.40 or earlier, or GIA63W installations
with certain models of GPS/WAAS antennas identified in Section 2.1.3.2. The operational
limitation is based on:
1. The ability to use antennas that may not meet the minimum gain performance
requirements of DO-228.
2. The ability to mitigate the effects of the different gain characteristics of those
antennas by increasing the effective mask angle through operational limitations.
3. The ability to further increase the effective mask angle, through operational
limitations, to a level commensurate with test conditions used in the original TSO
qualification tests.
4. The ability to use -128 dBmic as the minimum GPS satellite signal-in-space for the
purpose of assessing the operational limitation.
5. The ability to use -128 dBmic as the minimum SBAS satellite signal-in-space for
the purpose of assessing the operational limitation.
3. Garmin was granted a deviation from RTCA/DO-229C paragraph 2.1.1.9 to use a 20
second satellite reacquisition time instead of a 10-second reacquisition time.
1. Garmin was granted a deviation from ETSO-C145 to use DO-160E instead of DO-16 0D

TSO-C169
1. Garmin was granted a deviation from TSO-C169 to use DO-160E instead of DO-160D.
2. Garmin was granted a deviation to TSO-C169, paragraph 4.d requirement to mark the
installation procedures drawing number on the equipment. Garmin will mark as follows,
which Garmin believes meets the intent of the requirement. The Install Manual is part of
the furnished data package.
TSO-C145a
See Install Manual for additional appliance approvals
3. Garmin was granted a deviation to TSO-C169, paragraph 4.e requirement to mark
(DEV) after the TSO number on the equipment. Garmin will mark as follows, as TSOC169 is not the primary TSO and the Install Manual contains all of the TSO-C169
information including deviations.
TSO-C145a
See Install Manual for additional appliance approvals
4. Garmin was granted to deviate from TSO-C169 by allowing a 6dB reduction of
transmitter power during the Normal Operating Conditions – Emergency Operation Voltage
as described in RTCA document DO-186a paragraph 2.5.13.1 and RTCA document DO160E paragraph 16.6.1.1.
