    Missing Engine displays

    Hi


    I started my RV7 engine IO-360M1B for the first time. Im using your AF3500 with engine sensors. There were Two engine runs for about 2 minutes each. No engine instrument displays except for voltage on the EFIS (12.4 volts). Other displays showed a dash. No shows included, RPM, manifold pressure, Fuel pressure, oil temp and pressure, and amps. The system is powered by a VPX-pro which I don't think should make a difference. I checked the set up screens for each instrument thinking they needed to be enabled and they all showed "ON" except for audio settings which I enabled.. I connected an old fashioned oil pressure gauge to verify oil pressure, which showed good psi(80) during each run.

    It's possible I didnt run the engine long enough either time or there is something simple I'm overlooking. Connections all appear good unless I completely connected them wrong or poorly. In that case I would expect intermittent workings. I am unsure if the alternator field was working. I toggled the master/field switch expecting to see an increase in voltage from 12.4 to something like 13.x

    Suggestions?

    Do you have one or two EFIS screens?

    Under ADMIN settings you should have the Engine Module Config set to HW:INT, NET:TXD

    Now that you mention it. I see what I missed in Appendix G of my older version 7.1 manual.
