Garmin Series Trainer program
The Flight Line 430XP/530XP uses the Garmin 400/500 Series
Trainer program to run. The GNS gauge automatically detects,
starts, controls and stops the Trainer in the background when
the gauges are loaded. To complete your 430XP/530XP
installation, you also need to install the Trainer program,
which is available as a downloadable installer.
Installing the Trainer Program
We strongly recommend you install the Garmin Trainer Program in
its default location. However, on some systems, the installer
may fail because short filenames are not configured or are not
compatible. To solve this issue in particular, we suggest you
install the Trainer programs in the following location:
C:\GNS430 or C:\GNS530
Instead of the installer suggested defaults:
C:\Program Files\GARMIN\GARMIN 400 Series Trainer or
C:\Program Files\GARMIN\GARMIN 500 Series Trainer
If the Trainer installer, or the Trainer program, fail with
an error about 16-bit MS-DOS Subsystem
Windows XP is designed to properly run the Trainer (a 16bit
windows application), with the same user interface
characteristics than a Win32 program. However, some systems can
fail under certain circumstances.
The Trainer installer may fail with an error about no being able
to “extract” files. Make sure to clean your Temp folder before
proceeding with the Trainer installation if this happens.
If you try to start or install an MS-DOS-based or a 16-bit
Windows-based program on your Windows XP-based computer, you may
receive an error message about 16-bit MS-DOS Subsystem or
something similar. Please make sure to review the following
