Okay -- find a way to kill the keep-alive. It works for me! Thanks again (and again) for your great tech support! - FJD

My D-180 was installed by AMD in my AMD-made Zodiac CH601XL in October of 2006. Honestly, I do not know how long the 1st backup battery lasted, but at the 50 hour checkup it was dead, so AMD replaced it. Now, 60 days later, the backup battery is dead. It reads zero volts on the panel and the...

Re: Where to get D-180 backup battery?   Cool -- thanks. What are you doing answering questions on Easter Sunday. Go bite the ears off a chocolate bunny or watch golf or something! I'll call on Monday -- FJD

AMD installed the D-180 in my aircraft, but never offered me the internal backup battery. Where do I buy the battery now? From Dynon or from.....?? -- Love the D-180, but NOW I wish I'd have put another screen in front of the co-pilot! Frank Derfler Marathon, FL (Home in the Keys) --...

Re: D-180 AoA Warning Noise   Ah! Super! Appreciate your quick reply. Follow-on question: When I tried out your (nicely done) update software and selected the D180 as the device (but without the D180 and associated airplane being present in my office), I saw that the software was calling...

I have a D-180 installed by AMD in a Zodiac CH601XL. They installed the Angle of Attack sensor, but couldn't get it properly calibrated with the version of software that was current on delivery day .. October 1, 2006. They didn't know if it was a problem with the probe installation (they hoped...
