    Laptop without RS-232!

    Whew! Finally got to the next step. I used a Radio Shack USB adapter and was able to get past the previous problems. HOWEVER Now I'm getting "Unable to communicate with Chip #2" errors on it. I have done all three suggestions listed in the dialog. Do we have a bad unit...

    Laptop without RS-232!

    Crumb! I fat-fingered the upload file name for the link in the post above. The link works now - http://www.golfsierra.org/images/DynonErrors.jpg Sorry!

    Laptop without RS-232!

    Still having issues. I tried another PC; usb adapter maps to Comm4. DSP 2.14 still won't see it. Error and status windows are at http://www.golfsierra.org/images/DynonErrors.jpg . Any help/suggestions most welcome. Too bad you can't select the Comm port from the software.

    Laptop without RS-232!

    Thanks for the reply. However, when we watch the support program screen, it shows it's attempting to use comm4, then comm5, and then it gives up and displays an error. That's why I thought I was out of luck. I guess my next question: is there any indication that it's really scanning up to port 99?

    Laptop without RS-232!

    Hi All, I recently upgraded my laptop, and now I have a new smaller unit - the problem is there is no RS-232 DB9 port on it. I have a Keyspan USB-Serial adapter. When I configure it, it maps to COMM8. Problem is, the new Dynon Support Program doesn't seem to scan up to COMM8, so I can't use my...

    Ground Wiring to specific sensor???

    Hi all, I'm nearly done with the EMS installation; all I lack is the fuel flow and the MAP sensors. I pulled the black and red/green wires for the MAP, and thought I'd double check to make sure the black wire was the Pin 17 wire. It wasn't. Evidently I've used the Pin 17 ground for something...

    Ammeter Shunt question

    Hello, I'm installing the EMS-10 and have a general question about the ammeter shunt. There are three choices in the installation manual as to where to connect the shunt. It seems like position "A" would be most useful - showing current flow both in and out of the battery. What are others...

    Where to mount resistors for P-leads?

    Thanks everyone for the help. I have a secondary question - with this setup, do you see a dropout in the RPM signal when you are doing your mag check? I would think you wouldn't since you have redundancy and are still connected to the "other" mag. My son had ordered a tach sender from Van's...

    Where to mount resistors for P-leads?

    Hello, new to the forum. I'm helping my son with his RV-7A project. We're using the AeroElectric wiring approach and are using two toggle switches for the magnetos. (Dual Slick). I have shielded 20AWG coming back from the P-leads to turn the mags off. I'm wondering where the best place to mount...
