11.3 ADSB-Receiver (TRX-1090)
It is possible to connect to the system with build in Flarm an ADSB-receiver TRX-1090 from
Garrecht Avionics (www.garrecht.com).
TRX-1090 can only be connected to the system with integrated Flarm option.
The TRX-1090 has been developed to upgrade the FLARM collision avoidance system, which
is installed in more than 13.000 aircraft worldwide. The unit will be connected between
FLARM and a FLARM compatible external display unit and will simultaneously show FLARM
targets and Mode-S transponder equipped aircraft with ADS-B output capability. The
presence of transponder equipped aircraft not broadcasting ADS-B output will be detected
and indicated on the connected display as a non-directional target. The TRX-1090 comes
with a high sensitivity low distortion receiver unit and a highly complex and powerful signal
processing unit with multi-level error correction algorithms to provide data with a very high
accuracy.
