Thanks Adam,

For some reason I incorrectly believed the tx interlock was to stop simultaneous transmissions, makes sense that it would be as you describe. Will connect it up.

I have dual V16 radios fitted to my jabiru, comm 1 using the standard antenna in the vertical stab. Comm 2 is connected to an underbelly com antenna.

When I have both comms on no 2 always breaks squelch when I transmit on comm 1. Makes no difference what freqs are being used.

Any ideas anyone.

On mine pressing the external alarm ack button stops the audio alarm but the light stay lit while ever that condition exists. For example if I have low voltage the light will stay lit until the voltage rises about the preset level, but won't yell at me if I acknowledge with the button.

Stereo Thanks for that, I'll give it a go. Might take me a bit as I am away from the aircraft for a while now unfortunately. It sounds like the difference is the removal of the red cube from the aircraft bus and using the converter as a filter for the power and signal. I wonder if putting a converte...

Stereo, I suspect you are into something here! It has always bugged me that an identical setup on a jabiru using Dynon is spot on while MGL is not. I have always wondered if the ground was the problem with the jabiru charging system but it appears you have solved the problem. Is they any chance of a...

A quick update.

Bit the bullet and replaced the RDAC, fixed the issue so looks like it was a hardware issue.

Each of the various autopilot buttons are also disconnect . If you are connected on S&L and press the 180 it will disconnect and requires a second press to activate 180. Personally I would prefer that it went straight to 180, given what you might use it for! At leats that is how it is working on min...

Checked the voltage today, showing 0v with Pull-up off, and 4.78v with pull-up on.

This was replicated with Aux1 after disconnecting the sensor.

I have also attached a shot of the diagnostics page.

Thanks Rainier,

I'll check that and report back.

Hi all, I suspect this may e a problem for Rainier though! I had a PT100 temp sensor on Aux 2 that stopped working one day, couldn't get any known working PT100 to work either. I tried an LM335 with no luck either. Aux 1 works fine. When I check the pull up I get the following readings, 5.7K off, 1....
