The way to use with [[FlightGear Qt launcher]]: go to the "Settings" tab and in the "Additional Settings" section enter the following options, each on a new line. The options entered there take precedence over those defined by Qt Launcher. To see the entire list of command line options used by Qt Launcher, use the keyboard shortcut {{Key press|Ctrl|L}} or select "View command-line" from the Launcher menu. | The way to use with [[FlightGear Qt launcher]]: go to the "Settings" tab and in the "Additional Settings" section enter the following options, each on a new line.

::The Garmin WAAS GPS uses 2 serial channels to communicate with the simulator. These 2 channels are represented by the FGAV400WSimA and the FGAV400WSimB classes. The "A" channel is similar to the previous AVSim400 protocol. The "B" channel is considered the "GPS" channel and uses a different protocol than the "A" channel. The GPS unit expects input on the "B" channel at two different frequencies (1hz and 5hz, normally). The "B" channel also expects responses to certain output messages. | ::The Garmin WAAS GPS uses 2 serial channels to communicate with the simulator.
