The STX 360 Sentinel is a 978 MHz UAT ADS-B unit with a built-in Mode A/C transponder. The STX 360 can easily be installed in the same space as an existing transponder, simplifying the installation. The STX 360 has an internal diplexer that allows both the transponder and the UAT to share a single antenna. Because it is a combination unit, there is a single point of entry for the squawk code which eliminates the possibility of reporting two different codes. The STX 360 provides a traffic display, METARs and status on its sunlight readable OLED display. With its wireless output capability, the STX 360 can also display weather and traffic on
portable devices such as an iPad or tablet. The SANDIA STX 360 accepts position data from WAAS GPS position source such as the FREEFLIGHT WAAS/GPS 1201, the GARMIN 430W, 530W. SANDIA STX 360 will accept a WAAS position source that has RS 232 or RS 422 interface. We also accept WAAS GPS Information from the MGL and GRT Product lines. |
