Never mind... I found the problem and it was a coincidence. It ended up being a bad connection.

No. Not running on internal battery. It reads 0 amps on internal battery. I didn't change anything else either. Everything has been working correctly for several months. It could just be a...
I just installed system S/W Version 08.08.03-MV16 and now my Hall Effect Current Sensor reading is +174 Amps when it should be reading 0 Amps. Is this a coincidence? Did my hall effect sensor just...
This problem is now fixed with system s/w 08.08.03. Thanks for the quick fix!
FYI, I think I have had ARINC S/W version 4.0 since new and don't recall ever needing to update it. I get the "ARINC: NA" on the EF4500 screen with the serial port (4) set to ARINC and that serial...
OK. Thanks for the quick reply. I'm not a Linux expert, but that makes sense.

Excellent! Thanks.
I use the one update SD card for both screens. Do these files backup each screen, or just the last one updated?

I recently updated my dual screen AF4500 system to 8.8.02. During the install a couple of files were created in my install SD card that were never created on previous updates:
afs_backup.tar.gz...
Yeah, I don't know if it's related, but after installing 8.8.02 I get an error message on boot up on both screens briefly just before the "I Agree" screen, "omap_wpt: Unexpected close, Not Stopping!"...
I tried this, but still get "ARINC: NA". ARINC GPS and VOR diagnostics pass.

Thanks, Rob.
I'll try that when I get home from work today. Both the EF4500 and the ARINC module are powered by the same circuit breaker. Since the EF4500 has internal battery backup, I should be...
When I bring up the ABOUT screen on my EF4500, it reports "ARINC: NA" in the Version Info section. All ARINC-429 functions seem to be working fine though - GPS, VOR, OBS, A/P, etc. I went to reload...
amekler,
I have backed up and edited the LOGCFGSD.AFD file, but have not tried it (not yet flying), although I'm confident it will work. The data logging rate can be changed in calibration menu....
I have the same question. I couldn't find anything referencing this file in the manual, nor could I find a config menu for this. It appears you could edit the LOGCFGSD file and change the "1's" to...
What brand SD-Card are you using? See this link... http://www.advanced-flight-systems.com/Forum2/showthread.php?241-Can-the-SD-card-be-the-reason-for-failures
I removed the magnets from the couple of gps pucks I have "surgically" using a razor blade and and a small screwdriver, then filling the void with epoxy. There is really no need for excessive heat....
In the latest AF-3000-4000 System Manual V7.1, on Page 85:
"Dual Screen Data Configuration
Any time engine or EFIS settings are changed you should transfer the files to both screens. One screen...
That is a private airport. Do you have the 3500EE set to display private airports? It is an option that can be enabled or disabled.
Is it possible to set up a warning to indicate when flaps are extended and Vfe is exceeded? If not currently, is that something being considered?
I am installing a dual screen / single AHRS AFS-4500 system (EF-4500 and EM-4500) in my RV-7. Normally one OAT sensor would be connected to the EF-4500 main harness. I bought a second OAT sensor with...
Somewhere I saw that the new 7.8.14 MV 15 software will support interfacing the CO Guardian 353P-101 to the EFIS via rs-232 interface. Also the installation manual mentions this, but doesn't give a...
