More MX1

Looking for advice, suggestions.... 1. My MX1 VSI reads about double the actual. At actual 0 fpm the MX1 reads close. At, say 750 fpm, the MX1 reads 1500 fpm. The manual says on page 54 that the VSI calibration factor does not normally need to be changed. Should I try adjusting it? Or is there somet...

ASV1 altitude calibration

I have a MX1 and ASV1 that both read 150 feet below field elevation with the current barometric pressure set in each. I seem to be able to adjust the MX1 calibration factor to get the correct field elevation. When I attempt the same in the ASV1, I can get the altitude to read correctly but my airspe...

Re: MGL MX1 recording file

My analog inputs all had the default "no name" and I shortened then to just NO. No change...my prob still exists. I can create the recording file, but the rec is empty, when I save the internal file, I get "cannot complete operation" and the dat file is on the card, but empty.

Re: MGL MX1 recording file

I'll take a look at the analog inputs. I'm not using any extender or any of the "additional" ai's, just the ones associated with the RDAC.

Thanks!

Re: MGL MX1 recording file

I also tried backing up the internal file to the SD card and a box popped up w the the message "cannot complete operation"...

I double checked my settings for the recording file as well...it is enabled, automatic flight detect at 1000 rpm and 30 mph. No data recording.

Please advise,

Peter

MGL MX1 recording file

Does anyone know the exact procedure for creating the MGL MX1 recording file? I've tried creating the file before the flight...that didn't work, and then after the flight...that too did not work. Do I make the file just once, or for every flight? Do I make the file before or after the flight? I've t...

MX1 ASV1 Airspeed variation

I made my first flight in my Sonex B yesterday. Along with the MGL MX1 for airspeed, I have the MGL ASV1 as a backup, both piped correctly to the same pitot tube. They have a 10 - 15 mph difference between them, the MX1 reading higher than the ASV1. The altitudes are reading very close though. I tho...

Re: No EGT or CHT Readings: MX1 with RDAC XF MAP

HI, I have 4 EGT and 4 CHT and they all remain about 60 deg F even when the engine is running. Oil temp, oil pressure, fuel level, RPM and MP seem good. I checked my connections, they seem to be ok. My setup appears correct (but I could be wrong). I would appreciate any suggestions. Peter I wanted ...
