There is no requirement for VFR, simple as that ;)

DS - the real issue for us here is that CASA has changed/amended some regs & I feel they unintentially included Instruments & systems requirements for IFR with VFR rules. The battery/battery life issue has never applied to VFR aircraft here beforethe latest rule change - IMO it will be changed ;)

Hi Murray, "The solution was to wire a completely separate bus for my essential equipment." That's what I always do, just didn't go into ALL the details with my 2nd Alt comment ;)

Hey Bob, I believe you - my comment was just a generic one coming from someone who has done many installations :)

Good tools & good connectors fixes most problems people are seeing  ;) & are the cheapest option in the long run IMO.

you did a careful check to see if the shear screw isn't broken ? ..... just a thought :)

Will do :)

Pm me if you want to discuss this more.

2 X Alternators is a better solution IMO [ch128077]

A search of 'system 5' on this forum will explain all [ch128521]

I'll find out soon enough, am about to wire up a new 480 (still in original box) & will try various settings if no one comes back with an answer :)

Someone else who has got the correct settings may chime in here but the 480 should not need GAMA 429 Graphics (like the 430/530) as it will do the procedures like 'Holds' in it's own right. That took a while for Garmin the get it into their own developed products, the 480 lead the field, & some...

Oil (& Fuel Pressure) sensors use Pin 18 (5 volts) to the red wire of the sensor - it's all in the Install Manual, please read it caefully ;)

I use the Amp brand spade connectors, they work really well if used with a good quality crimper -IMO  the supplied pink ones are too good ie the material that they're stamped out of is a slightly thicker plate & are too hard to crimp properly.

1. First thing is to add a Ethernet cable connected to both screens as the EMS & some other data will seemlessly transfer. 2. # 2 D1000 - make sure you configure the serial ports same as #1 & the software vers is the same plus any mapping/databases. 3. When both are 'setup' (no need to do...

I'd confirm the PPR is correct for your engine type/number of cylinders. Increasing the resistence is most likely not what to do especially if the rpm was working well before the update.

Hi Steve I'd fix the antenna connections first, hopefully the Dynon transmitter has not been damaged.  Generally if you transmit without an antenna connected ( centre pin 'retracted' in your case) or a dummy load fitted there can be damage, the RF energy has to go somewhere & basically that...

So glad you found the problem &, as discussed offline, the issue can be caused by other power supplies like USB's.  That's why it's important to turn everything off then turn on one item at a time to determine the cause of the interference  ;)

Contact DS direct - there was an issue with some earlier EMS modules & it will need to be returned to factory, or you may try using these http://www.l-com.com/d-sub-capacitive-filter-emc-adapter-db9-male-female (25 pin as well) filtered Dsub connectors however IMO it's better to have Dynon fix...

I don't think so - I'd just connect the network cable & Dynon GPS to give fuel at waypoint etc functions as a minimum. DS may add more info.
