d180 % power and fuel pressure

[craig]

Please could you assist with the following.

i did send a e-mail to dynon but now i was able to log on so if the reply comes via e-mail or this forrum thats ok

I have a D180 installed in my RV9 with a 160HP Teledyne mettetak motor , my questions are

- where do I find the % power setting this is such a great function but cannot seem to find it ( I have the latest firm ware down loaded may 2008)
- I would like the fuel pressure displayed on the 1/3 EMS display that has the RPM MP EGT CHT fuel flow and fuel tank levels , is this possible ?( The standard screen on power up)

Thanks.

To get % Power, you need a few things hooked to your D180:
RPM
MAP
Altitude
OAT

With the D180, the first three are basically always there. OAT is an option though, so first make sure you have an OAT probe and it's working properly.

If it is working, go into general setup, and make sure you have engine type set to "8.5:1". Then set your HP to 160.

Once you have that all done, % power should show up next to the MAP display.

Unfortunately, on the 1/3 EMS page, there is no way to display fuel pressure.
