Lite Systems Diagnostic Menu

I found a new diagnostics menu on my Explorer Lite for Lite systems. There is a prompt to refer to documentation.
How do I find that?

Re: iEFIS Lite Audio out noise

The iEFIS lite audio out produces a signal that is too high to be connected directly to the V16 aux audio in. A 10:1 resistive divider was recommended by MGL. By adding the network shown below and adjusting to aux audio level on the V16 I was able to get a reasonable audio quality and reduce that cl...

Re: EFIS Challenger Lite - Audio signal

I used the 10:1 resistive divider recommended by MGL and described by LaneRM and adjusted the V16 aux input level to get a good comprise. The audio is still slightly distorted but good enough.

Re: Black Box Viewer Data Recording Issues

I loaded the data viewer on a new windows 11 computer and it works fine. I find this to be a very good tool. The FWF RDAC allows easy connection of additional thermocouples in the engine compartment for troubleshooting that get logged without modifying your iEFIS screens. I also use flight data view...

Re: V16 upgrade with iEFIS

Thanks for the scoop. Good luck. I guess I don’t have that problem. I have used a couple of SD cards in my gen 3 iEFIS and they worked with the FAT32 format out of the box.

V16 upgrade with iEFIS

My V16 works great in my RV8 but I’d like to try the mic filtering of the new software. I’m gun shy about making changes. Has anyone installed it using an SD card through the iEFIS?

Re: MGL iEfis lite and Accelerometer readings

Thanks for sharing. My iEFIS lite 8.5” does the same thing.in an RV8. I sent it to MGL Torrance and they couldn’t find a problem.
I have a hunch is a limitation related to the vibration of the panel itself.

Re: EFIS Challenger Lite - Audio signal

I too am struggling with the audio output of my iEFIS lite. The AOA system works very well and would be so much more useful if the vario tone worked

EFIS data recording viewer display

My RV8 flew for the first time and I wanted to review the data. I have V 1.0.4.2 running. When I import the IEFISBB file the viewer displays 55 flights downloaded but doesn’t display any data with boxes checked. Any ideas? Really want to see this data.
