Rob was right! I had an incorrect sensor file loaded. Once the right file was installed, and the case ground wires attached on the back of the display (very important) the fuel and oil pressure...
I've got an AF-3500EM and am testing out the system prior to engine start. I purchased the system from someone who was going to use it with a rotary engine, but I'm going to use it with an O-320. I...
Thanks Trevor - I'm using a pre-made harness that came with the AF-3500. I grounded the shield at the audio panel end for sure.
On the EFIS end, there is a connection called "Audio GND" on pin 16...
I'm getting white noise from my AF-3500EF. It is coming in to my PS Engineering PMA 5000EX audio panel on the EFIS audio warning line, which I routed into an AUX input on the audio panel. I've...
I'd like to see 3 videos:
1) Typical VFR flight from startup to shutdown. Show how the fuel computer works, how you can navigate with external GPS, use of the map. Different formats, etc.

I've been trying to get timeouts to work as well in an AF3500. To get the labels to display with nothing connected to theu nit I set the logic to "Normally Closed". Then the green square lights up...
Hi - is there still a plan to offer some level of integration with the EMAG ignitions? They have a serial port and can be monitored (and even controlled) electronically.
There is a new hardware...
I have a Dynon D6 as a "backup"... and of course it has to have the correct barometric pressure setting to read the correct altitude.
Is there any way (maybe using a serial port) to push the AFS...
Hi Noah - can't help with the 3D model, but I took the bezel cutout .dxf file from the AFS website and had that CNC'd into my panel. Worked 100% perfectly. Very impressive.
I did a little bench test of my 3500EF, 3500EM, ARINC, Magnetometer, and 496 GPS. No real issues, but I noticed the same thing with the knob on both displays - most of the time the first "click" is...
Have people reported good service from the MAP sensor located on the hot side of the firewall, or is it better / longer lifetime to run a bulkhead connector thru and mount the sensor on the cooler...
Thanks Rob - I'll plan on audio from the left display only, so I'll just use those switch inputs as well. Can the switch inputs tolerate battery voltage applied to them?
Hi Rob - I'm a member of the Beech Aero Club, and we just migrated our ancient forum onto the same cool software that you are now using. The tech experts found a way to move all the old foum posts...
Hi Dnelson - for the uninitiated, what is the difference between button 1 and button 5? I know that button 1 mutes any active audio alarms and pages the display, but what does button 5 do and how...
So they will all work, but each on their own screen. I'd have to use both audio outputs to hear them. Still a pretty useful feature - I may be able to eliminate some of my annunciator lights with...
Thanks Rob - now what about the Switch Inputs. Each display has 3, so in a 2 display system can I connect them to 6 different things? If so, can there be 6 different messages / audio files that get...
I'm working on a dual screen system with a 3500EF and a 3500EE. My question concerns the audio outputs.
Do all of the the audio alarms come out both outputs, or do some come out the EF (like...
