    Actions to be taken following device configuration.

    re Configurating network is the first action I do when I re install devices, sometimes the software versions are different/newer to what what’s already there YMMV 😉 HTH.

    Intercom giving off annoying noise

    What brand/ model of intercom do you have ? If you have a 12v/5volt socket for ipad/iphone or other use ? If so, unplug/ disconnect it completely & advise if that makes a difference 😉

    AUDIO ALERT WIRING

    Sounds like a job for the FDS AP-60 ? I've always used a 'pot' on a single audio output, remote mounted & cable tied to the loom, works well, YMMV.

    HDX Display Power Input Question

    Come on guys, you’re making a mountain out of a mole hill, it’s much easier to use what you’ve got to work with without soldering 😉. The 2 twisted wires (22 awg) easily fit into the VPX pins (some circuits go to 15amps) as they are suitable for up to 16 awg - NO soldering required & you have a...

    System upgrade path

    Basically - impractical & unable to do that = 2 different operating systems & reconfigure/recalibrate would be required each time you switched over. Just decide which Dynon system you want (I'd go for the HDX) to operate the servos & leave it at that or sell the legacy system & just use the HDX...

    SV with PPS and VP-X

    Scott, I have a led but not sure whether it’s on pin 13 or 14. - I’ll be back at the plane on Monday if you need to know & can advise if you want.

    SV with PPS and VP-X

    I have the same setup but with externally regulated alternator & Odyssey battery. I didn’t connect most of the optional in/outputs as the Dynon EMS shunt etc does all I need it to do, couldn’t see the need for any doubling up which could take more time with troubleshooting if any faults show...

    Power up HDX1100 from backup battery?

    You could stay with the Dynons powered via the avionics switch & just boot up 1 x Dynon via its backup battery. Personally, & on all the installs I've done, I'd just have the Dynons power up with the master on as per the OP. If you're concerned about battery drain then maybe just have 1 Dynon...

    Flap Indication

    Change that in the Dynon hardware calibration.

    Intermittent amperage spike causing engine aural warning

    Maybe you have too many electrics on (too much 'load') when at low rpm? Some aircraft systems do not output enough power to overcome the 'loads' ;)

    High oil temp issue Hdx Continental Io 550 N

    To make things easier I join the pressure sensors grounds onto the MAP sensor ground - has worked for Hundreds of hrs. The standard Dynon Oil Temp sensor does not have a ground wire however if the temp sensor you have (hopefully compatible) has provision for a ground then ground it to the Dynon...

    High oil temp issue Hdx Continental Io 550 N

    If you have 1 x Ems ground wire going to a good airframe ground then that will work.

    High oil temp issue Hdx Continental Io 550 N

    A bit of clarity here. - the pressure sensor grounds, fuel flow, map sensor etc should be connected to the ground wires ( there are several of them) that are available out of the EMS module - the Oil Temp sensor body uses the engine case as a ground, there is no separate ground wire for it. all...

    High oil temp issue Hdx Continental Io 550 N

    The best grounding method is to connect the sensor ground to 1 of the EMS module grounds - if you run out of grounds there then just join into 1 of them. you are using the Dynon (Kavlico) pressure sensors, correct?

    Transponder Setting Warning upon Powerup?

    Bill, I hear you however to expand on my point - this is the first time I’ve heard of this type of request so I’d suggest it would be a low priority ‘enhancement’ considering most of us would automatically check the Txpdr settings as well as comm frequencies. I too have missed checking the Txpdr...

    Dynon HDX Fuel Flow "K" Factor settings?

    Akash - the default K Factor is 68000, as per the Install Manual - afaik there is now minimum/maximum K, it all has to do with each individual installed FF unit & variations of its install. For most GA 4/6 cylinder engines you can probably expect to see the calibrated K factor be in the 50000 -...

    Transponder Setting Warning upon Powerup?

    It's one of those things - if you want full automation then I wonder what flying is about for those people, having checklists is part of the 'fun' & discipline - next thing is someone will want a parachute & a Dynon widget advising it has indeed been deployed - get over it !

    Transponder

    Ok, so your ADSB IN is working & not related to Txpdr. Can you post a screen shot of the Txpdr setup menu please, it would be most helpful ? Are you able to select the transponder using the MENU button at bottom of the screen ?
