INTRODUCTION:
This Installation Manual contains installation data, specifications and Instructions for Continued
Airworthiness for the DAC International Model GDC31 Roll Steering Converter, Part Number 1049-4000-
XX-001( ). Check the DAC International website www.dacint.com regularly for updates to this manual.
DESCRIPTION:
The GDC31 Roll Steering Converter with software version 001A is designed to receive RS232 or RS422
serial data from a GPS Navigation System to produce both an analog Roll Sum Steering (RSS) signal and
ARINC 429 labels bank angle command and ground speed. The GDC31 Roll Steering Converter with
software version 001B is designed to receive RS232 or RS422 serial data or ARINC 429 Label 121 from a
GPS Navigation System to produce an analog Roll Sum Steering (RSS) signal.
The GDC31 output signal connects to the heading error input of the aircraft’s existing autopilot. The
GDC31 mimics the heading error signal of the aircraft’s installed HSI or DG. The GDC31 does not reduce
or otherwise alter any existing safety features of the autopilot, such as bank limiting, rate limiting and
protection from a hard over. The GDC31 provides lateral (roll) data only (no pitch data is supplied by the
GDC31). The ARINC 429 output from the GDC31, P/N 1049-4000-01 with software version 001A can
drive digital autopilots or converters.
The pilot simply selects between heading mode and GPS mode using the supplied switch / annunciator. In
heading mode, the autopilot operates as always, tracking the heading bug of the HSI or DG. In GPS mode,
the GDC31 RSS signal drives the autopilot’s heading channel. The GDC31 calculates the correct course
intercept angle from the data supplied by the GPS, smoothly guiding the aircraft onto the course. The
GDC31 then holds the aircraft on the selected course. If the GPS is programmed with Flight Plan data, the
GDC31 will calculate the new intercept angle at each waypoint change, intercepting and holding the new
course without pilot intervention.
The GDC31 is designed to operate with both rate based and position based autopilots.

OPERATION:
Overview
The GDC31 Roll Steering Converter receives ARINC 429, Label 121 Bank Angle Command (BNR) (-03
model only), RS232 or RS422 serial data in RNAV 0, RNAV 1, King 0 or King 1 format from a GPS
navigation system. It extracts Cross Track, Ground Speed and Track Angle Error information from the
data stream to compute an appropriate bank angle command to return the aircraft to the Desired Track
computed by the GPS navigation system.
NOTE: The Bendix/King KLN-89B and KLN-94 GPS Receivers are not compatible with the GDC31 Roll
Steering Converter. See Appendix A, SIL GDC31-01.
Analog Output
The GDC31 produces an analog Roll Sum Steering (RSS) signal that drives the heading channel of the
autopilot. Phasing and amplitude of the RSS signal is based on the reference input supplied to the GDC31
from the autopilot and the gain and phase settings established by the program pins (refer to Tables 1, 2 and
3). The GDC31 will accept either an AC or a DC reference input as well as reference inputs that contain
an offset from airframe ground. The internal circuitry implements a multiplying Digital-to-Analog
converter that uses the external reference input to produce the desired signal output amplitude and phase
relative to the reference input. Certain installations (Century II and III, for example) will not accept a
heading error signal referenced to ground, so require the Isolation Coupler in order to transformer isolate
the GDC31 output signal.
Reference Inputs (Excitation)

The GDC31 contains two reference inputs to accommodate the wide range of reference voltages available.
Input Ref 1 will accommodate excitation voltages up to a maximum input of 42 volts peak (30Vrms).
Input Ref 2 will accommodate excitation voltages up to a maximum of 15 volts peak (15Vdc or 10.6Vrms).
The determination of which reference to use will depend on the gain needed to match the autopilot scale
factor as well as the maximum expected reference voltage. Certain installations (Century II and III, for
example) produce a reference voltage that is floating relative to airframe ground. These installations
require the Isolation Coupler in order to transformer isolate the GDC31 reference input signal.
ARINC 429 Output

The GDC31, (-01 model with software –001A) produces an ARINC 429 digital output containing labels
121 and 312 intended to drive digital autopilots or digital autopilot converters.

GPS Mode Annunciator Control

The GDC31 contains a Normally Open relay contact configured as a SPST switch to control the external
GPS mode annunciator. This annunciator is further controlled by external switching and is active when the
pilot selects GPS mode in place of heading mode with the external switch. Refer to the typical
interconnect diagram later in this manual. If GDC31 output data is valid, the relay contacts are closed,
allowing the mode annunciator to illuminate. If the data is invalid, the GDC31 will cause the mode
annunciator to blink at a 1 Hz rate and command the steering output to zero degrees of bank (wings level).
The GPS mode annunciator blinks if either the super flag input is invalid or the serial data from the GPS is
missing or not the correct format (see Appendix A).
Super Flag Input

The GDC31 reads the Super Flag (14 or 28Vdc) from the GPS receiver. If the flag is greater than 6Vdc,
the flag shall be considered valid, if less than 3Vdc, the flag shall be considered as invalid. If the Super
Flag indicates invalid, the GDC31 shall produce a steering signal of zero degrees, blink the GPS
annunciator relay and invalidate the ARINC 429 label 121, bank command data, and label 312, ground
speed data.

INSTALLATION
This section provides details for the installation of the GDC31 Roll Steering Converter, including
configuration, wiring, mounting and checkout procedures. Follow the procedures and recommendations
found in this section to assure a successful installation.
Read this entire section before beginning the installation.
Prior to installation, determine the required scale factor and phasing for use with the aircraft’s autopilot.
Consider the location of the mode selector / annunciator switch; it should be installed within the pilot’s
primary field of view and easily accessible by the pilot.
Complete an electrical load analysis in accordance with AC 43.13-1B, Chapter 11 prior to starting the
aircraft modification to insure the aircraft has sufficient load capability.

Mounting Considerations
The GDC31 Roll Steering Converter can mount in the avionics bay, shelf or other suitable structure. It can
be mounted in any orientation.
The optional Isolation Coupler can mount in the avionics bay, shelf or other suitable structure. It can be
mounted in any orientation.
Attach the GDC31 and Isolation Coupler to suitable structure using the following hardware.
Screw, 8-32 X 1/2” MS35206-245

Flat Washer, #8 AN960-8L
Lock Washer, #8 MS35338-42
Nut, 8-32 MS35649-282
AN or MS self-locking nut plates may be used in place of the nut and lock washer specified above.
Mount the GPS/HDG mode annunciator / switch as near as practical to the autopilot mode controller. If
there is insufficient space there, mount the mode annunciator within the pilot’s primary field of view, near
the HSI or CDI.
Wiring Considerations
Wiring should be done in accordance with AC 43.13-1B, Chapter 11. Refer to the typical interconnect
diagram later in this manual for specifics. Use 22 to 24 AWG wire for all connections.
Fabricate wiring harness; refer to the interconnect diagrams and pin description. Test all the wiring for
continuity and for shorts. Insure aircraft power is on the correct pins of J1; refer to Table 6. Install slide
latch assembly onto J1 using instructions found later in this manual.
The mode annunciator/switch, P10280, comes pre-configured for 28V operation. For 14V operation,
perform the following steps:
1. Pull firmly on the edges of the lens to disengage the lamp assembly from the body. The lamp
assembly will hinge out and away from the body.
2. Remove and discard the four existing lamps, and replace with the four 14V lamps, P10301,
contained in the kit.
3. Push the lens firmly back into the body.

Perform the following setup procedures in this section if a wiring diagram for a particular autopilot is not
included in this manual.
Steering Output Scale Factor Determination

The GDC31 is designed to mimic the heading error signal produced by the existing HSI or DG, so it can
operate with the wide variety of autopilots in current use. These various autopilots employ a wide range of
reference voltages and scale factors to interface with the array of HSI and DG control heads. Reference
voltage, or excitation, is the autopilot signal used to excite the Heading Select bug in the HSI or CDI. As
used in this manual, scale factor refers to the autopilot’s response to the heading error input signal,
expressed in volts per degree of bank. Examples are 200mv/deg and 60mv/deg. Examples of excitation
voltage are 26Vac and 15Vdc. The GDC31 first computes the bank angle using data from the GPS. It then
uses the reference voltage along with the scale factor setting (gain setting) to produce a signal that feeds
into the autopilot’s heading error input to produce the desired bank angle.
The GDC31 has ten (10) choices for scale factor, selected with a combination of program pins (3 each) and
reference inputs (2 each). Tables 1 and 2 describe the program pin combinations for the various scale
factors. To determine the appropriate setting for a given autopilot, first determine the autopilot excitation
amplitude in volts (AC or DC). Next, determine the autopilot scale factor from the autopilot maintenance
data. The scale factor needs to be expressed as volts/degree of bank. Divide the scale factor by the
excitation (scale factor / excitation voltage). Then look in Tables 1 and 2 for the nearest Scaling value to
the one just computed.
If the gain is set too high, the commanded course intercept will be overly aggressive. For 90-degree course
changes, too much gain will often cause the aircraft to turn inside the new course then S-turn back to
capture the track.
If the gain is set too low, the commanded course intercept will be sluggish. For a 90-degree course change,
too little gain will often cause the aircraft to overshoot the desired course then S-turn back to capture the
track. Some autopilots limit the maximum bank angle to less than the 30 degrees, 22 degrees for example.
In these cases, the aircraft will exhibit the symptoms of too little gain because the aircraft cannot turn sharp
enough to capture the track without overshooting. Examine the attitude indicator during a 90-degree
course change to verify that the aircraft banks to 30 degrees, or in the case of rate based autopilots, to a
standard rate turn.

Phase Selection
The GDC31 will accommodate steering signals that are in phase with the reference or out of phase with the
reference. For DC heading error signals, in-phase means a positive error signal produces a right turn, a
negative error signal produces a left turn. Determine the correct phasing from the autopilot maintenance
data then wire P1-13 accordingly.
If the phasing is incorrectly wired, the autopilot will turn the opposite direction when coupled to the
GDC31 Roll Steering Converter.
