You cannot split the OAT signal between a D10A and a SkyView. Sorry.

We don't have any good ideas on the AP-ERROR. If it works in EXPERT mode, it should work in SIMPLE mode as well. If you put it back to expert, does it still work? Any more details on where on the screen you see this error and exactly what it says? What software version are you on? As for using...

Johan, It may very well be inside the AP controller, but one thing to try first. Are you sure the trim motor works both ways? The limit switches in the Ray Allen servos can fail in such a way that the servo will only move one way. You can use a 9V battery to move the servo and test very easily...

The heated pitot draws 10A. We'd like to see this at least 30" away from the magnetometer for any wire involved with the heated pitot. There's interference from wires being near one another, it's all about the distance from the actual sensor inside the box. There is no shielding you can do to...

The system can't tell the difference between a completely discharged battery and a disconnected one. However, the system should recover a discharged one out of this state in just a few minutes. As asked before, what SW version are you on? If you're on an older one, try upgrading. If on a newer...

Do you have fuel flow? If not, you can turn this off in setup. If you do, this is telling you to set the fuel computer correctly so it can track your fuel burn.

The only purpose of torque is to make sure you can override the servos manually if needed. As long as you can, the higher the torque the better.

It should charge in flight. It takes about 3 hours to fully charge, but should be usable in just a few minutes. What software version are you running? Newer versions do a better job at recovering a completely dead battery.

If you run the screen at above 12.25V it will charge the battery. This means you need a charger on your aircraft system as a standard airplane battery is below 12V when not being charged.

Total Engine Revolutions and seconds.

Both of these already have 1+ second filters. You're seeing the result of filtering out even larger changes. For the CHT's to bounce 10 degrees likely requires a data change of 50+ degrees. Most installs don't have these issues, and can easily settle on a 1 degree CHT and 0.1GPH fuel flow. I'd...

Yes, page 25-7 for the RPM, and the NMEA section after that for ground speed. You can't get both on the same serial port at the same time however.

The difference between the 250 and 251 is the baud rate. The 250 talks much faster (115,200 vs 9600) and cannot be used on the D10A or TruTrak. Ray pointed to the correct page of the install manual for a drawing of the 250/251 mounting so you can see how it matches your current hole pattern.

The SkyView screens clearly annunciate both of these conditions already, visually and audibly. What is the advantage of an external, redundant indication, and why do you find them more important than other indications in the system such as traffic?

These are solid state sensors with voltage outputs. There is no useful resistance to be measured.

As Ray says, this is a side effect of the way our radio (and others on the market) tune two frequencies. It's "by design" and there's nothing you can do to eliminate it.

Yes, a thermocouple input is appropriate for a lightspeed ignition timing output: http://dynonavionics.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1490981816/1 I'm not sure if you can use the degree symbol in the name however.

Most people with LiFePO4 batteries come up with a way to make sure the alternator goes offline if it fails. If you take the battery out of the circuit, then the alternator will go to hundreds of volts. In this case, the amps input on your EMS is the least of your worries since all your avionics...

The challenge in using anything besides a shunt will be accuracy over temperature. The reason you don't just use a copper wire is because between -40C and +60C, Copper changes resistance almost 2X. So on a cold day 40A might read as 30A and on an hot day it will read 55A. A properly designed...

Looks like there are a few errors in that statement. Thanks for the catch. It should actually say: The sensor file itself has a definition of this, and it was correct in saying:
