    External Indicator LED's with AF-4500's...

    With the AF-4500 can you set up external indicator lights for specific conditions such as when either the primary alternator or the backup alternator are reporting low voltage? Or do you just have to be monitoring the Ammeter bars on the display to see that such a problem exists?

    The EFIS has an external output that can be used to drivea warning light when there is a warning triggered. I don’t have it wired in my RV-10 and I don’tsee why anyone would use it.

    Remember,the EFIS has Voice Alerts! If you getlow voltage it will say in your headset “Check Voltage”

    What is there visually on the screen when there is a warning? Also, can you feed other external inputs into the EFIS (like a canopy open, fuel pump on, etc.) so that the EFIS can warn when the external input is switched? Lastly, is there a list of the built in Warnings that the EFIS will alert on and can you configure the warning parameters?

    Thanks,
    Matt

    There is a warning over button 1.

    Yes you can use the 3 inputs and change the text for the warning.

    Any of the gauges will generate a warning if the gauge enters the red band.
