I was 10 out, inbound for landing and suddenly the airspeed varied from 250 to 550KTS , altitude went blank and lost encoder numbers to the Transponder.

Any ideas?

Given the missing graphical elements on the altitude tape it looks like you had a processor issue. System logs can show some valuable data in these issues.

With an SD card installed press the following sequence: CHECK -> MAINT -> ADMIN -> SYS LOGS -> START Reply and attach the *.ALS file from the SD card or email it to support@advanced-flight-systems.com.

Thanks Shawn,
I received a email from Jonathon requesting the file and other info, replied back with the .ALD data, video and photo.
Based on what I saw, earlier today I packed up the unit and it’s on the way to Canby.
Hope you can return it to service.

To close the loop on this, I sent the unit back to AFS, Tricia contacted me as soon as it arrived to make sure they fully understood the problem. The service dept. turned it around in 3 days and it was on it’s way back.
I installed it this weekend and all appears to work well.
A big thanks to Tricia and the AFS service group.
