    Plasma III Tachometer

    "Dynon D-Sub with with the shielded wire which would also mean re-pinning one of the goound connections with the shields." Doug That's the way I'd do it, neater and 'safer'. ;) Jake J Oz Glasair IIS FT

    Can ground plane serve as remote compass mount?

    Re: Can ground plane serve as remote compass mount I should qualify that general statement - carbon fibre is the exception. ALL of my antennas are inside the airframe of my IFR Glasair. Jake J

    Can ground plane serve as remote compass mount?

    Re: Can ground plane serve as remote compass mount Apparently plastic airplanes don't do as well with an internal transponder antenna, so even though the comm in internal they put the xpdr externally. Wanna bet on that ? ;D Jake J

    Erratic Fuel Flow Readings

    "My flowscan unit worked perfectly for about 100hrs. Then it would get erratic and shut down. I have gone through all of the wiring and it would work for awile then shut down again. I just put a Red Cube transducer in and it worked about 5 min then went erratic and shut down." Pittsdriver IMO...

    Dynon CONVERTER

    Suggest you go the one wire serial method which would have been much easier to wire up and less chance of faults rather than the multiwire converter method. However I've not heard of a problem with the converter - suggest you check the wiring carefully if not done so already ;) Jake J

    Plane-power alt.

    Ron Easy - just set the volts threshold lower than the normal system, won't take long to get a warn if the Alternator is u/s :D Jake J

    shipping status for skyview...

    Ron B To be fair - we were warned about delays & I have had a shipment done in 2 stages but the delays will get fixed IMO as my most recent order is complete .   There are many manufacturers who have had delayed shipments over the recent past eg Garmin 430 - these were on b/o for months, it...

    Dynon CONVERTER

    Just need to confirm how you have it (GTX328) wired up now from the Dynon - are you using the 1 wire serial or multi wire converter ? Jake J

    Dynon CONVERTER

    Asking the obvious and hope you don't mind - did you configure the Transponder menu correctly ? ;) Jake J

    Skyview AP Servo's and Proximity to Antenna?

    You already suspect it to be an issue - move it, just to be sure ;D However if you're using low loss coax (eg RG400) it shouldn't be a problem as the antenna is on the outside so the skin will act as a shield. Jake J ;)

    GPS antenna

    You can use a Gps engine as distinct from just an antenna eg the 'old' Garmin 35 should work. Correct, Dynon ? Jake J

    Ordering, Encoder and Redundency

    "You can split this signal as much as you want (Well, within reason)." Generally, 4 ways is considered maximum for RS232. Jake J

    Jabiru 2200 tachometer wiring

    I think it's 6 PPR - try it and see ;) or change it to another setting, you can do this while the engine is running. BTW - if there are unstable rpm fluctuations I'd use an 100k oHm resistor. Jake J

    Fuel pressure sensor

    That's what I do - then you will know if the engine pump is losing pressure and also when the electric pump is turned on you will see the pressure increase confirming it works too. Jake J

    Interface with Trutrack autopilot?

    It would be nice to see a picture of what we can expect, in regards to resolution, here in Australia. Past experience with other vendors has left us with much less detail on the screen than you have in North America. A screen picture of say the Sydney area would be most helpful for those...
