FWIW, I exchanges a few emails with Rob following my post above that started this thread. My questions on their web site had an error (mine) in the email address field. I corrected that, and also sent a screen shot to Rob, at his request, on June 2, but have not received any responses to my questions. I agree, this is uncharacteristic go AFS. I hope that Dynon hasn't mucked up AFS.

The email on June 2 said "So I believed that it was taking a charge. Sorry for the confusion." So I did not realize you still needed help?

Rob:

The original request / questions were about:

1) Connecting the IBBS Pin 2 “Battery Info” to the AFS 5500 Exp. Cable Connector Pin 13 “Volts2”.

I went ahead and did that. The IBBS as well as the AFS indications appear to be working / displaying properly.

2) The AGL, altitude above ground, does not work. Looking for guidance on where to start troubleshooting.

This is still a problem. Still looking for guidance.

3) I connected a GDL-82 Pin 21, “Fail” switch, to the AFS 5500 Main Cable Pin 8 “input #3”.

Still need guidance on how to activate an audible and or display message “UAT Fail”.

Apparently, I had a typo in my email address in the original web site request for information. I sent the corrected address to Don, and asked that he resend his response.p to the corrected address. I have not received a response to that.

Thank you.

2)...AGL does not work...

Do you have the HRTERRAIN folder on the USB drive and is synthetic vision working properly? Post a picture of your CHECK -> ABOUT page, the bottom shows what GPS is feeding that data.

3)...how to activate an audible and or display message “UAT Fail...”

SET -> Hold CAL -> Inputs -> Set input #3 Usage to Generic and label it "UAT Fail"

Will do when I get home from Oshkosh. Thanks.

I was omitting changing the usage to Generic.

Thank you.

Synthetic vision is not working. The USB drive does have HRTERRAIN, and is in the upper USB port. Does it need to be in the lower port on the 5500?

Thanks,
