Вопросы и ответы
Can the KT-74 be operated in mode C if desired?

Although the KT 74 transponder cannot be operated in individual modes, it responds to both legacy Mode A/C interrogations and to Mode S interrogations from both ground radar and airborne collision avoidance systems.

Is the KT 74 a plug and play replacement for the KT 79?

No it is not as the KT 74 is only a slide in replacement for the KT 76A/C and KT 78A model transponders. However, it is very similar and a good choice when upgrading because it minimizes the installation effort.

Will the KT 74 display TIS-B traffic on a Garmin 430W. As the Garmin GTX 330 does?

TIS-B reception requires an ADS-B In device, also referred to as a UAT receiver (978 MHz). Neither the KT 74 nor GTX 330 receives ADS-B In. With the optional BendixKing KGX 130/150 TIS-B can be displayed on a Garmin 430W (Intruder only).

What are the traffic display options and requirements for the KT-74 in the cockpit?

Traffic information associated with ADS-B In known as TIS-B requires a UAT receiver (978 MHz) like BendixKing’s KGX 150R. Traffic and weather can be displayed on portable devices (for example, tablets with Foreflight) with the KGX Wi-Fi adapter. Note, light aircraft has no requirement to display traffic.

How does the altitude alert work on the Bendix King KT-74 ADS-B Mode S Transponder? Is it an audio alert?

The KT74 includes an altitude monitor function that can alert the pilot to altitude deviations in cruise flight. It will alert when the pressure altitude differs from the selected altitude by more than 200 feet. The altitude alerter output, on the 12 way secondary connector, is switched to ground when the altitude deviation is detected and can be connected to a warning light or sounder to warn the pilot.

Is the Bendix/King KT 74 unit 1090ES compliant?

Yes, the KT 74 is 1090ES compliant (note it will still require a certified WAAS GPS source). Further, the KT 74 Mode S transponder is an ED-73E and DO-181E, Class 1 compliant, Mode S Level 2es datalink transponder, with support for extended squitter, elementary surveillance and surveillance identifier codes. The KT 74 is also a DO-260B Class B1S compliant ADS-B out participant.

Will the TIS-B traffic display on the Garmin Aera 796 Portable?

No, it will not. The optional BendixKing KGX with Wi-Fi adapter will display traffic and weather on portable tablets, however, it is not compatible with the Aera 796 portable.

The KT 74 requires a certified WAAS GPS antenna. The unit must therefore contain a GPS receiver. Is this correct?

The KT 74 does not require a GPS antenna for standard installations. For ADS-B Out compliance it requires an input from an approved position source (WAAS GPS) in the RS 232 format. Per the STC, approved GPS sources include BendixKing KSN 765 & KSN 770, BendixKing KGX 150, Garmin GTN 6XX/7XX & GNS 400W/500W series (including GPS 400W & GNC 420(A)W), NexNav Mini 21000, and FreeFlight 1201.

Where do I buy the GPS module and GPS antenna for the KT-74 ?

ADS-B compliance requires a certified WAAS GPS source. The BendixKing KGX 150R is a great option. Also, per the STC approved GPS sources include BendixKing KSN 765 & KSN 770, BendixKing KGX 150, Garmin GTN 6XX/7XX & GNS 400W/500W series (including GPS 400W & GNC 420(A)W), NexNav Mini 21000, and FreeFlight 1201.
