I completed my 2nd test flight today after the install of my new panel Dynon HDX 1100, ACM and EMS. Unfortunately as I entered the pattern at my home field I got Several warnings and cautions on down wind. RED ACM FAULT, RED OIL Pressure high (96psi) with audio and yellow caution Oil Temp High (239 deg F). Landed uneventfully and shutdown before gathering anymore data. Later after a pit stop and lunch I powered up the SkyView and attempted to retrieve some data...
MENU: ENG TOOLS got me to
LEAN, FUEL and CLEAR TRIP TIMERS
I was expecting to see FAULTS but that was not there.
Q 1 Are faults only available prior to powering down the system?
Q 2 Where or which manual gives a description of "ACM FAULT" I looked in the ACM and Skyview install manuals as well as the Pilot's user guide.
Q 3 Where is historical EMS data?
I suspect I have an engine oil flow/cooling issue not a sensor problem, after I powered up the second time all CHT's were approx 110 degrees F and eng oil temp was at 108 Deg F my oil pressure at cruise power is usually 85 psi.
