Brief Description: Wiring the avionics panel
|
|
I previously constructed a temporary panel, so I can get everything squared away and don't make any mistakes in my permanent one, so now I've added more to that, which is:
*Parking brake
*Ignition switch
*Innovate MTX-L Air/Fuel Ratio meter
*Battery switch (master & backup)
*ECU switch (master & backup)
* Fuel pump switch (master & backup)
*Engine fan switch
*Heater fan switch
*Bilge pump switch
*Skyview 10.1" EFIS display
*iFly720 GPS with Airgizmo dock
I wired the EFIS, then connected the serial cables to the Engine Management System (EMS) and the ADAHRS. I powered up the EFIS, which was exciting, but really didn't show much of anything because it detected ADAHRS, EMS, and GPS failures. I wired-up the Dynon GPS puck, and that at least fixed the GPS error enough to show the map. I'm not at all impressed with the resolution/detail of the map, so I hope that gets much better once I configure and put in the map key. Also don't know why I'm getting an ADAHRS failure, because everything is hooked into it except the atmospheric lines (static, pitot, AOA), and since those aren't electrical lines, how would it know whether they were connected or not? I still have a lot to connect to the EMS, so I didn't figure that would work yet.
