I've read pieces of this info on different threads and I just want to sum up:
In order to get a %power reading, I need:
1. Altitude from the EFIS (which requires the null modem hookup of the serial lines, yes?)
2. An OAT probe hooked into the EMS (it won't take the reading from the OAT probe hooked into the EDC?)
3. If I have the 2-wire OAT probe I can disconnect it from the EDC, splice additional wire onto it, and run it to the EMS?
4. If I do #3, the EFIS will still be able to "see" the OAT probe on the EMS for TAS calculations? (DSAB is hooked up)
5. I do have the other bits (Fuel Flow, etc) in place
Or, any idea when an update will allow the EMS to read OAT from the EFIS?
Thanks! I love the V3.0 firmware!
