Re: Blaze TP-4 Readings

Thousands of options on Amazon, but couldn't find what I wanted. Ended up installing a pair of clip on suppressors onto the alternator cable. Also got ferrite loops that I cut a gap in so that I could place them behind the battery cable where the sensor was attached to. Still showing a small dischar...

Re: Blaze TP-4 Readings

Ok, I'll look around to see where I can source a ferrite ring of that size. Thanks!

Re: Blaze TP-4 Readings

Hi Ranier, thanks for the replies. As I think you figured out, I'm using the magnetic sensor. I chose that one since I didn't see any documentation as to the ID of the closed loop sensor. Also I didn't want to have to deal with getting up under the panel to disconnect the cable to be able to slide t...

Blaze TP-4 Readings

Finished the retrofit install of the Blaze TP-4 and now have several ground runs and about 2 hours of flight time. There are a couple things I need to tweak and looking for any insight from other users. Oil Pressure - I'm using the UMA pressure sensor and have selected that sensor in the setup menu....

Re: Which OP transmitter for TP-4

Uncovered more information about the UMA pressure transmitters. Lot of inconsistent information out there on different websites. When I received the T1EU100G it came with a spec sheet. Spec sheet said transmitter should only be used with a UMA indicator that can provide a regulated 9-12 VDC. Well, m...

Re: Which OP transmitter for TP-4

Did some more reverse engineering on the Westach quad guage and some more research on pressure transmitters. The Westach gauge does provide 5VDC to the oil pressure transmitter. So confirmed that I can't use old transmitter cause I no longer have a source of regulated 5VDC and I have no wiring diagr...

Which OP transmitter for TP-4

The Westach Quad in my Glasair is showing OP that is 20 psi low versus a mechanical. Glasair first flew April of 1990. MGL has the only 4 function gauge that I could find and the docs indicate that I can hook up just about anything to the TP-4. So I arranged to pick up one at OshKosh. Looks like the...
