G-meter alert malfunction

[airguy]

Today while goofing off locally, I encountered a few minor jolts in the air from turbulence and got a "G's" alert from Skyview Classic. That's nothing unusual, it happens often - but this time the alert latched on and would not reset in smooth air. I was forced to power off and back on my primary screen of the dual-screen pair to reset the G-meter annunciation.

Diagnostic file is attached here.

Did you happen to have the G-meter up? What did it look like during the annunciation?

Yes, and it appeared normal, indicating some minor turbulence and fluctuating +/- 0.3 G from 1.0 during the continuous alerting.

Yeah, that's not expected (the alarm). You should probably get in touch with our support team at support at dynonavionics dot com or 425-402-0433 for some more personalized help here. Definitely point them to this thread with the diagnostic log.

Last night I pulled the datalogs (attached here) and the mystery only got a little thicker. The event in question occurred at 21:11:30 system time on 1-13-19 and lasted 11 seconds, with twelve "G" announcements before I reset the screen. The air was smoother than I initially thought, the datalog shows the lateral G in the seconds leading up to, and through the end of, the event varied between -.02 to +.06, and the vertical G varied between +1.3 and +0.7, neither value was high enough to cause the initial G alert in the first place. The datalogs are attached here for review.
