Re: Request info download / install Scandinavian Maps

I solved the problem with the ARINC-424 text file. Opened it into Visual Studio and resaved it according to the following encoding: 387547934_896472411818739_3032653285766104094_n.png Imported it into MGL-Central as an ARINC-424 Skärmbild 2023-10-16 205441.png Exported the Navidata file and installe...

Re: Request info download / install Scandinavian Maps

I am also very interested in how to use the ARINC-424 data and convert it to .ewd files that the iEfis is using. I have tried a lot of different ways importing the arinc data to MGL-Central software but it does not seem to really read the file correctly when importing it, you are hinting about some ...

Open AIP Data

I am aware of PocketFMS as a good option for Flightmap data in the iEfis but I wanted to see what the possibilities are for open source data. Found this source for open data available : https://www.openflightmaps.org/es-sweden/ The maps seems to be very good and complete, the question is how do I ge...

Re: MGL iEfis lite and Accelerometer readings

I couldn't fix it, so I removed the G-Meter and slip/skid from the screen. @LaneRM , Did you use the panel designer software to remove the G-meter? One thing I thought about is how to configure the G-Meter Arc visibility. Now it seems that it is activated at 1.5G, I was thinking of changing the val...

MGL iEfis lite and Accelerometer readings

We have recently installed our iEfis lite and is now starting to learn more about the functionality and features. Really fun and rewarding phase. One thing that seems a bit odd is that the accelerometer readings seems erratic. Here is a link to an unlisted youtube video describing the issue. I am th...

Re: GPS Antenna from Garmin.

I've now got an answer from Garmin's Avionics Europe section.

Re: GPS Antenna from Garmin.

Thanks for the swift answer. I have also contacted Garmin support to see if they have any more detailed specs other than "Low voltage antenna"
Should the antenna stop working I'll just change it, I was far more concerned in damaging the iEfis but I guess this wont be an issue then.

GPS Antenna from Garmin.

I have an already installed Garmin "GA™ 26C Low-profile Remote Antenna" in my RV-4 and I have tested it together with the iEfis Explorer Lite and it seems to work fine. Just want to make sure that this combination is ok and will not risk to harm the system in any way. The Garmin antenna is hard to f...
