What radars will the MX20 MFD interface to?
As of November 2004, the Garmin AT MX20 Multifunction display will only interface to the RDR-2000 (ART-2000) and RDS-82 (RS-181A) sensors for radar display as a radar/traffic upgrade available for existing MX20 units. The traffic interface of the MX20 is compatible with Ryan TCAD and Goodrich Skywatch traffic avoidance systems. Currently, UPS Aviation is indicating that there will be only one upgrade available for existing MX20 units. This upgrade will include the addition of both radar and traffic interfaces.

The traffic version of the MX20 will include all the features of the basic version but will also include the TCAD/Skywatch traffic interface as mentioned above. The price for this traffic version
