A NEW GENERATION OF DME
THE DME SOLUTION FOR TODAY’S GA AIRCRAFT
GDM 450R DME is a modern digital radio, designed for installation in general aviation aircraft. It’s a remote-mount unit that follows the tuning of associated NAV radio(s).
MULTICHANNEL OPERATION
GDM 450R can allow pilots to tune and track up to two separate DME frequencies. With an optional enablement and compatible avionics, the aircraft’s FMS1 can automatically scan and tune up to three additional DME frequencies.
DME HOLD CAPABILITY
For added navigation flexibility, the DME “hold” function lets you maintain your active DME distance indication when tuning the associated NAV radio to a different frequency. This function is particularly useful for instrument approaches where it becomes necessary to tune the localizer or other approach aid while needing to retain your NAV’s referenced DME information.
DME-DME AREA NAVIGATION (RNAV)
With a compatible flight deck or display, the GDM 450R radio can use the distances from two or more DME ground stations to determine the aircraft’s position. This enables the DME to support RNAV routes, providing an alternative navigation option.
EASY INTERFACING
For seamless installation, GDM 450R integrates directly with compatible Garmin displays — no interface adapter is required. It also supports RS-232 and King Serial interfacing to connect with legacy distance indicators.
COMPLETING THE SYSTEM
In addition to compatible navigation equipment and flight displays in your aircraft, you’ll need an L-band DME antenna (sold separately) to complete your GDM 450R system installation. See your Garmin dealer for recommended antenna options and mounting configurations.
