    Update on CHT & EGT jumping when I press the PTT

    Have you tried turning off the alternator (when on the ground) then using the PTT ? Sounds weird I know but these 2 others (using different sytems, 1 x Dynon legacy & 1 x Rocky Mountains) are an example--- Aircraft 1 - CHTs were working ok before engine pulled but when engine replaced #1 & #3...

    Ammeter Readings Fluctuate Wildly

    In that case I'd also add an Electrolytic capacitor --- http://www.bandc.biz/electrolyticfiltercapacitor.aspx into one of the genny output wires, better for the radio too ;) Jake J

    Update on CHT & EGT jumping when I press the PTT

    Marc Are you saying you added the 'filters' to the EMS 220 in addition to the ones on the SV's ? If yes, then that's interesting as I've never had to go to that degree of protection - but hey, if it works then that's all that matters ;) Jake J

    Update on CHT & EGT jumping when I press the PTT

    Troubleshooting without seeing the plane can be difficult & there are so many variables. From my experience, if you are using RG400, separating the coax from rest of the loom doesn't make any real difference unless heavy power (battery) cables are involved. Most of the issues are with...

    Update on CHT & EGT jumping when I press the PTT

    Dennis I have done installs on several Arions here & we don't see (well nobodys told me they have 'issues' yet) the problems you have :D What type of coax do you have ? BTW - some of the aircraft I work on don't allow me to separate the coax from the rest of the wiring bundle & we still don't...

    SL-30 TO SKYVIEW

    Dennis W Set the SL30 'Head Type' to NONE as opposed to Resolver etc - this can be done in the SL30's menu. Randall Serial grounds are more important with composite airframes howevr I connect them anyway as it takes one item out of the equation if I have to do any troubleshooting later...

    High RPM reading with Lightspeed

    Hugh What is the PPR (Pulse per revolution ) set at ? it should be 2 for a 320 or 360 Lyc however it's usually 1/2 to 1/4 the number of cylinders - try changing the value, it won't hurt anything, you'll know when it feels/sounds right ;) Jake J
