--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "Herbert Schmaderer" <herbert.schmaderer@aon.at>
Good afternoon fellows!
I own a KX 99 handheld for many years and it=B4s good quality. Since over one year
I can=B4t use the squelch feature any more. Once i do adjust the squelch so
that no noise is coming through also the incoming voice gets surpressed. I tryed
various ways to get a maintenance manual but was not sucessful so far.
Any comments are appreciated.
best regards
Herbert

Phil is right (and the only other correspondent to mention current threats):
"Oh don't hit the starter button with the ammeter in there unless you like
watching smoke rapidly escape from electrical test equipment. :-)"
The problem is finding the culprit before arranging for that size of
current. Otherwise, on finding the fault - ammeter go poopoo. Select a large
current to test, then (on suspicion) range downward to measure the fault
accurately.

Someone mentioned an AN-3 (3/16") hardware connection,
I'd MUCH rather see something larger. 1/4" is minimum,
5/16" is great. Clean mating surfaces well, torque to
50 in-lb for 1/4", 90 in-lb for 5/16" unless instructions
for your engine says otherwise. It's that terminal deforming
"mash" that gets you the gas-tight, works-good-lasts-a-long-time
connection.

B&C's regulators have low voltage warning built in. I have
a Low Voltage Warning and Aux Battery Management Module
that you can see at:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/Catalog/AEC/9005/9005.html
Either one or a DIY project like:
http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles/lvwarn/LVWarn-ABMM.html
http://www.aeroelectric.com/articles/lvwarn/9021-620.pdf
is a good idea for any airplane.

Would anyone happen to have a pin-out for a KI-208 cdi? Will be used with a
KX125.

Okay . . . very good. Z-14 with even the most rudimentary
level of battery maintenance gives you an order of system
reliability not found on any other airplanes I've seen.
Sounds like you're well under control.

Good afternoon Bob,
I installed two 17 amp batteries and one 40 amp alternator in my RV4. I
thought you had a drawing showing this set up. I can't seem to find it on
your web site. Is it still a good idea?

| Subject: | Landing & Taxi lights |
--> AeroElectric-List message posted by: "David.vonLinsowe" <David.vonLinsowe@delphi.com>
Hi all,
I'm going to upgrade my panel and electrical architecture this winter.
I'm doing the panel layout phase and was wondering about the landing and
taxi lights.
Currently the landing and taxi lights are individually operated through
their own switches. What would be the pros and cons of this setup vs.
having them both on the same switch? Beyond that, how about a 3
position switch with one position wig-wag? Then does it make more sense
to have the wig-wag come on first or the continuous first (middle switch
position)?
Thanks,
Dave

I'm planning to have the landing and taxi lights on one switch with
positions off, taxi, and both with the wig-wag a separate switch, since
it's a recognition function similar to the strobes. Since mine is a
taildragger, I'm assuming that the taxi light will need to be aimed
quite a bit lower, but I'll want both lights on during landing so that
the taxi light will come into play as the tail settles and the landing
light rotates up too high. Right now I'm planning a row of four switches
for lights in this order: strobes, wig-wag, position lights,
taxi/landing.

For panel space reasons our switches are miniature models. My buddy
carefully chose them, installed them, even aligned the screw slots.
When -and if- I tell him he has to change to a different and bigger model
for the master switch I'm afraid he'll get some tar and feathers ;-)
The engine is a Rotax and your OV setup is the only one I heard of for this
type of engine. So I'd better stick to it. After reading those messages
about nuisance trips and the newer version of your OV module, I was only
asking just in case.
Cheers
Gilles

Hmmmm . . . miniature toggles? you can get the 2-10 function in
these as well.

Okay, for the moment, let's get your airplane flying by
pulling the breaker during startup. You have plenty of
other issues to address with getting a new airplane flying.
When this one bubbles back to the top of the list, we'll
do some experimenting to see if we can identify and implement
a fix.

sure. don't know why not. You can add an extra battery to
any existing battery with addition of a battery contactor,
battery, battery bus and battery master switch. This is
illustrated in Figure Z-30 of
