MY 180 has a type J probe connected to the GP themocouple input and marked FIRE OVHT. I placed the probe in the cooling air stream as it exits the cowling. After some monitoring of the exit air temperature on hot days, its easy to come up with a temerature number the can only exist in the event of an engine fire or serious malfunction (separated exhaust etc.).
Can you dynon folks expand on this concept with a predefined ENGINE FIRE function that generates a big RED FIRE message when preset levels are reached? Perhaps a new function of GP temp?
Thanks
Bob
