Garmin GDL® 60 Datalink with PlaneSync™
System Overview
The Garmin GDL 60 LTE™/Wi-Fi Datalink serves as a security gateway and is the primary means of connecting Garmin-equipped aircraft with Garmin’s services offerings.
Cloud connectivity is provided through LTE and Wi-Fi and cockpit/cabin connectivity is provided through Bluetooth and Wi-Fi. When the aircraft is within LTE or Wi-Fi coverage, the GDL 60 maintains current avionics databases including navigation, SafeTaxi®, enroute/terminal charts, terrain, obstacles, and more.
If the aircraft is outside LTE and Wi-Fi coverage, databases can be updated wirelessly through Database Concierge using Garmin Pilot™.
The GDL 60 offloads maintenance and flight data to the Aviation Cloud. It also allows Garmin Pilot and approved third-party EFBs to synchronize flight plans and display weather and traffic data from the avionics.
For in-flight connectivity, a GSR 56 Iridium datalink can be installed for Garmin Connext® services. The GDL 60 provides an input for powering the unit from an external battery. This allows the GDL 60 to wake up, connect to Garmin Servers, and download databases while the rest of the aircraft is powered off.
The GDL 60 can be configured to support any or all of the following capabilities:
• Automatic database updates
• Upload of aircraft and flight data
• Remote Aircraft Status
• Enhanced Connext® PED connectivity (Flight Stream 510 replacement)
The GDL 60 works by transferring data, such as aviation databases, between Garmin servers and the GDL60 using Wi-Fi or the LTE™ cellular network. The preferred method is Wi-Fi because it will typically provide faster data transfer and is not subject to cellular network congestion.
If Wi-Fi is not available, then the GDL 60 will try to use the cellular network for data transfers.
In a typical scenario, the GDL 60 would use a Wi-Fi connection at the aircraft home base and use the LTE Cellular network when the aircraft is traveling and Wi-Fi is not available.
Configuration and software download to a GDL 60 can only be accomplished through a connected GTN Xi navigator. A single GTN Xi is the minimum required interface to a GDL 60.
