Disconnecting the ibox sta...

iEFIS Explorer RF from display

Apparently this has been a known issue for years based on these videos on YouTube showing the exact same RF noise at similar frequencies. What’s the fix? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kg8bZ5wZ3bk ...

When each AHRS is on the bus individually I can see them and they are assigned to their proper address SP9 - AHRS1, SP7 - AHRS2. However, when both are on the bus together, the SP9 is not visi...

Re: Sratux ADSB

V16 Aux Input Muting Completely on RX

I have a V16 serving as primary VHF and intercom controlled by the iEFIS. The radio and intercom work great, but I can’t get the radio to stop muting the iEFIS audio (alarms and AOA tones) connected to the aux input. Aux volume - adjusts as expected and set at -6db which is a comfortable volume. Aux...

IEFIS autopilot response tuning

Can anyone help with iEFIS autopilot tuning? I have followed the autopilot manual tuning procedure and the autopilot holds heading and altitude well. However, when I go to any nav mode like GPS or VOR it is overcorrecting and continuously s-turning across the course at moderate frequency without inc...

Re: Databse update

They haven't been updated every AIRAC cycle, but I find the free ones are just fine for VFR recreational flying. Last update was this past cycle. Here's the link. https://support.michiganavionics.com/po ... se-updates

Re: iEFIS update broke SP-12 comms?

Sorry for the late reply, but I had the same issue with version 1.1.2.3 on my iEFIS Explorer G3. Rolling back firmware to version 1.1.2.2 returned GPS functionality.
