Thanks Jonathan! Just what I needed...
Which GPS antenna model is shipping with the IDF-540? I'm looking for the mounting hole diagram for that antenna.
Thx!
I need trouble shooting advice for my AF-5500. Three times today in flight I got a "No GPS" alert on the moving map and it
froze at the present position. Other items on the map continued to...
When building, what are the pros/cons of the Dynon pitot AOA vs the old style wing pressure ports? Planning an AFS panel and I want to make the choice during the wing build.
Thx,

FYI, I contacted uAvionix support. They said that I can feed the SV-GPS-2020 serial data directly into the echoUAT via pin 6. The echo will send traffic and weather data to the EFIS from its pin 3....
I'm considering replacing my AF-74112 with a uAvionix echo to get ADSB-Out. My system is AF-5500 + SV2020 + Trig TT21. Any red flags with his setup? What setting should I use on the serial port...
Capacitive senders are mentioned is on page 164 of the manual where users are advised
to connect them to pins 20, 21 of the EMS. My opinion is that omitting the information
that capacitive...
So are you saying that the installation instructions are wrong for capacitive senders?
I think there are resistors in the lines to the converters. Would removing them
help. Currently pin 22...
The sensor type is set to capacitive, but they are connected to pins 20 and 21 as shown in the installation manual.
These were not changed when I upgraded from the 4500.
I am using the SV-EMS-220 and I specified capacitive senders when I ordered.
My converters have no external identification, but they were purchased from Van's in 2007. With the converters powered off, the AD values are about 2500. When
power is applied, the AD values...
I'm installing a new 5600 and have Princeton converters for my capacitive senders. My tanks
were half full when I started, and AD values of about 1870. When I drained them to prepare
for...
I'm setting up my new 5600 and the current software configuration options are not in sync with Version 5.4 of the Installation Manual.
Any plans to release an update?
I don't have a touch screen unit.
I still confused about what is needed to upgrade to the SV-ADAHRS-200/201. It would seem that the
only way to free up a serial port is to add the SVN network...
Thanks Shawn,
Are you saying there is no way to do this without upgrading the screen for the SV network and replacing
my AHRS and ADSB-in? Would my current setup work if the GPS-2020 was wired...
I have a 5500 and want to upgrade to ADSB-out with a SV-261; but that will
require reconfiguration of my serial ports.
My question is can I configure a serial port to send output to an...
During a flight last week I experienced two unprovoked reboots of my AF-5500.
Both times the instrument recovered with no input from me, but after the
second reboot there was an annoying "flashing"...
On a long flight yesterday I saw that the OAT, TAS, and wind speed/direction indicators
all showed "---" on my 5500 screen. All had been working on the previous flight. I suspect
the OAT sensor,...
Thanks. Exactly where do I look to find out if my system needs to be sent back for wiring changes?
I've been seeing intermittent issues with my fuel and oil pressure sensors on the 5500.
Sometimes when the engine is cold, the pressures will read way high (like 45psi fuel,
110 psi oil). ...
Yesterday my 5500 rebooted twice during operations; once while warming the engine before the first flight of the day and once on short final on the third flight. Both times the screen went black for...
Hi Rob,
Thanks. I'm sure your point #2 will fix the ownship issue. Any suggestions on the text weather reception?

Hi Rob,
Test flew the ADSB yesterday. Lots of traffic was displayed, and the About->WX page showed
ground stations in site and lots of messages. The only annoyance was the near constant...
I have a Trig transponder that displays TIS-A traffic on my AFS 5500. Now I am installing the
Dynon ADSB receiver. Is there any reason to keep my transponder traffic output connected to the
5500...
Any plans to add user defined waypoints? It would be great if we could
add them by lat/long or by radial/distance. I didn't spot this feature in
the AF-5000 user guide.
Thx,
- Dan
