I get a error message on my IEFIS and believe that my internal SD card has corrupted.

Can anyone help me in how to create an external Boot Configured SD card for my IEFIS system/

An then how to download updates from the Web?

I just can't figure it out.....

For how long must I wait for approval for others to read?

Hi Rudolph,

The MGL crew is on holiday until January 6, so it takes just a bit longer to get posts approved at the moment.

The answer to your question lies here: http://mglavionics.co.za/iefisg3updates.html
Click the installation instructions link and look at the bottom paragraph regarding instructions on booting from external SD Card.

The long and short is to download the EXP3.bin firmware, rename it to EXP3.exb and then insert the SD card into the EFIS.

Regards
Adam
