What to do if the internal battery life of my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System is too short?
Verify the internal battery is charged to above 16 volts using the EFIS-D100 voltmeter. Re-run the capacity test. If the capacity is still insufficient, replace the battery.
What to do if the OAT sensor is not detected on my Dynon Avionics GPS?
If the OAT sensor is not detected in your Dynon Avionics GPS, double-check the wiring between the EFIS-D100 and the EDC-D10A, and also check the wiring of the OAT sensor itself.
What to do if my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System EFIS-D100 heading is wrong after magnetic calibration?
Orient your plane in a known direction, ideally on a compass rose at the airport. Then, navigate to the Heading Adjustment menu by pressing SETUP > MORE > MORE > MAGADJ. Increment or decrement the heading value until the EFIS-D100 heading matches the direction your plane is pointed.
How to correct an incorrect heading indication on my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System EFIS-D100?
Recalibrate the magnetic heading using the procedure described in the manual.
What to do if my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System EFIS-D100 screen stays black when power is applied?
Verify that the master power is connected and that the master power is above 10 volts.
Why does my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System EFIS-D100 indicate an over temperature condition?
The EFIS-D100 indicates an over temperature condition because it requires additional cooling. Provide additional cooling to the instrument.
What to do if my Dynon Avionics Autopilot System EFIS-D100 displays a continuous or blinking blue screen?
First, ensure that your power supply can provide at least 2 amps and is at least 10 volts. If the unit still doesn't operate normally after confirming these conditions, contact Dynon Avionics.
Why is the temperature unstable on my Dynon Avionics GPS?
If the temperature is unstable on your Dynon Avionics GPS, turn the unit on before you run through any of the preflight procedures. This is because the unit is turned on after having been off for a long period, causing a fast change in internal temperature.
What to do if the internal battery is low on my Dynon Avionics GPS?
If the internal battery is low on your Dynon Avionics GPS, turn the unit off by pressing the POWER button in Main Menu 1.
What to do if the temperature is out of spec on my Dynon Avionics GPS?
If the temperature is out of spec for your Dynon Avionics GPS, provide more airflow to the space around the EFIS-D100.
