I like to "program" a gear not down warning with the folowing inputs:

3 gear microswitch not down
airspeed below 70 KIAS
Trottle or manifold not maximum

any insight for me.

Many thanks
Marc

Look at the D180 (or EMS-D120, or EMS-D10) Installation guide. There are a couple of "contact" inputs that you can use to create on-screen indications. HOWEVER, you won't be able to have them sense IAS. But you CAN hook up microswitches in series so that the circuit will only "ground" the contact when the all the microswitches are closed.
