Dynon, I recently received my EFIS-D10A back from service.  I had problems with the system after updating to 5.1.1  I installed, and it was great to see it come back to life!! While checking the settings, I had the RPM and clock on the left side of the screen, with the OAT settings on the...

I pulled the battery out as you suggested....no change the Blue Screen of Death :-)  I pulled it out and will send it back to you. Now that it is out, I now realize how much I like and use it. I have a long cross country and will put it off until I get the unit back. Thanks.  Tim

I loaded the 5.1.1 upgrade, and my EFIS D10A went crazy, Attitude Indicator was doing all shorts of flips.  The DG was also spinning. I reloaded the previous version 5.1, and it was back to normal.  I noticed that my GPS 496 was on while I was uploading 5.1.1.  I decided to reload 5.1.1 with...

I a happy to report that I finally have the Garmin 496 working along with my Garmin 430. I changed the Garmin 496 settings to:  "TIS in/NMEA & VHF out", and the baud rate for both is 9600. After reading the Wiki, I was under the impression ONLY those settings would work and focused a great...

I must confess I was using the settings outlined in the Wiki. I will switch to the above. Thanks Tim

OK, I still cannot get my HSI to connect to my Garmin 496 (Serial Input 2) I have confirmed that my Garmin 496 is in fact putting out a signal to Pin #2 on the Male DB-25 for the HS34. To review, here are my current menu settings: My HSI settings: HS34 Serial Setup    Serial One (This is...

I have not tried powering the unit off - will do. I will test wiring harness (maybe I just did not insert the connectros all the way - I can hope(. Will let you know - thanks for the quick responses. Tim

Your are correct, it is GPS2, and something like "searching for a signal."   Which implies the settings are not correct - I think :-( Tim

OK, I am having problems with output from the Garmin 496 being displayed on the HSI. I have configured the 496 with the above instructions.  (I have EFIS-D10A, EMS-D10, HS34, AP74), My HSI settings:   HS34 Serial Setup     Serial One (This is my GNS-430)  Works no problem!!      Input:    ...

I found the secret screen!! In the Garmin 496 Owners Manual, page 124, It explains the procedures for the Advanced NMEA Output Setup. Thanks, will head to the airport and see f I can get the HS34 to recognize two separate GPS units!! Thanks Tim

What are the correct settings for the Garmin 496? Is the Garmin "setup menu" the correct place to change them? Thanks Tim

I did check the sensitivity - they (roll/pitch) are both set at 100%. I flew for about three hours, and once again I was very happy with how solid the AP felt.  I did change from the NAV mode, and switched over to the heading mode.  Flew the plane with the HSI, and it responded well.  The plane...

Do not recall them, I will check the settings this weekend, and post. Tim

How many GPS inputs can the HS-34 handle? I currently have a GNS-430 (GPS/VOR) for the HS-34.  I also want to panel mount my Garmin 496.  Can I hook it up to the HS-34 to drive the autopilot via the EFIS/ AP-74?  I would like to be able to switch between the Garmin 496 and GNS-430. Thanks...

Flying update: Anyway installation is complete!!  I flew the Velocity with autopilot for about two hours today.  All I can say is AWESOME!!  Both roll and pitch were rock solid!  I am very happy.  I only tested the Nav and Alt hold mode (I do not test the heading/HSI, they will be next). I...

Installation Update: Wiring - very straight fwd.  Although, I connected the disconnect switch on the control stick backwards.  We had fun trying to determine why the servos were not properly calibrating.  Finally we checked and rechecked the wires, and Dewey (my adult supervision) determined...

Is there a problem with the Autopilot Install forum? I try to log on, and it states an error has occurred, you do not have access to this section.  Tim

Jeff, Thanks for the response. I am assuming you have a canard aircraft? Tim

Folks, I have installed the Dynon EFIS, EMS, HS-34, and now AP-74 in my Velocity.  I have attached a picture of my panel. I have been very happy with the EFIS and EMS products.  I have recently purchased the servos for both altitude hold, and autopilot.  I will begin installation of the servos...

I have already purchased the Approach Fast Stack.  I am still overseas, but have been told the box is on its way!! Tim
