Trying to activate SV. Per manual, pressing EFIS-SETTINGS-MORE but no OFF/ON soft key shows up. It's not over the toggle either. ADMIN says the softkey is installed. Checked Calibration # 35 and SV is ON.
???

Thanks,
John

The SV ON/OFF button should be over the right knob in menu EFIS-SETTINGS-MORE , are you running current software?

Do you have a GPS connected?

Email info@advanced-flight-systems.com a picture of the about screen and what the main screen looks like.

Rob,
Same software as shipped 4/10. I need to pick up a card and a reader/writer.
AFS supplied GPS puck connected through the expansion 9-pin D-sub, but the airplane is in a hangar. Unmovable at the moment.
Roy advised that the ON/OFF function should appear over the right knob/toggle, but it doesn't. From your instructions, it sounds like I may have gone one page too far by hitting the MORE key. I'll verify today.
Will get screen shots for you today.

Off topic, but calibration page for airspeed doesn't seem to save changes. I changed the default values, but when I hit the save button, the default values come back.

Thanks,
John

You have old software and need to get the latest installed.
