    Subject: Fat Wires & Brass vs. Copper
    Bob & Listers, I'm finishing up the contactor mounting/wiring on my RV-7 firewall and about to make and mount the ground busses and ground pass-through. I'm planning on 2AWG welding cable for both battery cables, the starter cable, and the engine to firewall ground bus. Is this OK or should I use a braided strap for the engine to firewall ground? This leaves the Alternator B-Lead. 2AWG is overkill but convenient to buy and use. However, would I be better off downsizing it to a smaller gauge welding cable? I'm planning on a 60amp Plane Power alternator. I can get brass plate and bar easily and cheaply. Is it practically / functionally equivalent to copper for the main contactor to starter contactor bar? Same for the bar to connect the current limiter? Van's specs out .125 x .5 for the first and there is no spec for the second but I plan on .063 x .5 for it. Will those work in brass? I've already sourced two copper bars that are a bit thinner (.050) that are perfect size for each side of the firewall for the ground busses. I'm planning on soldering brass tabs onto them and mounting them with brass bolts through them for the fat wires? Is this OK? I've summarized these 5 questions below, and I appreciate the help. Other questions following in separate threads. George Jenson Tucson, AZ RV-7 Summary - 5 questions: 1. 2AWG welding cable OK for engine to firewall ground in lieu of braid? 2. 2AWG welding cable OK for 60amp PP alternator b-lead or should I downsize? 3. .125 x .5 brass bar OK for contactor to contactor run (Van's specs same size but Copper)? 4. .063 x .5 brass bar OK for contactor to current limiter (no starter current)? 5. .050 x .75 x 5 copper bars/straps on either side of firewall, each soldered with brass tabs, with 3/16 brass bolts as ground setup OK?

Check out local hardware/hobby stores for K&S Engineering displays like: http://www.ksmetals.com/HobbyMerchandisers/metal_center.asp?Title=Hobby_Merchandisers They will stock some .032 brass sheet that is fine for crafting the short jumper straps between contactors, limiter mounts, etc. Make the 5/8" wide or so and thinner.

Go .032 brass for all and at LEAST 5/16 or better yet 3/8" brass bolts for fat-wire terminals. Torque to 80+ percent of maximum for the materials and thread sizes. Check AC43.13 for values.

    Subject: PM3000 Wiring
    Bob & Listers, I have a used PM3000 stereo intercom for my RV-7. I am intending to wire two stereo signals, a Garmin 496 and a 1/8" panel jack, through a 4PDT switch into the intercom's entertainment input. This input mutes when there is other activity and allows for pilot isolation. That is the easy part. The more complicated part is how to handle all the mono signals: 1. Comm1 - Panel mounted, probably a Garmin 480 or a 430w 2. Comm2 - Icom A6 handheld in a panel dock (I have a 4PDT switch for these two to switch the intercom's transmit output) 3. Nav1 - Garmin 480 or 430w 4. EIS - GRT EIS has audio, and it is the likely candidate. 5. EFIS (?) - Some EFIS's output audio so this is a possibility 6. Garmin 496 Voice Output (?) - Not sure if I need to use this if the stereo output is attached, though I'd rather have warnings come through an unmutable (immutable?) input and I'd like to still get 496 audio warnings if I happen to be listening to an mp3 player. So that's 4 for sure, 5 likely, and perhaps 6, mono signals for the PM3000, which has one mono input. Further, the mono input of the PM3000 is supposed to come after the Aux headset jack. That jack is supposed to be installed between the Comm radio and the intercom, and from a SHTF perspective, that makes great sense. Note that I don't need nor want any of those inputs switched nor do any need added volume controls. Simple is as simple does, and I'm a simple (minded) guy. My current plan is build an audio isolation amp per Bob's plans and route the output of that into the Aux jack and then into the PM3000. 1. Is this OK or should I put the isolation amp between the Aux jack and the PM3000 so that the primary comm goes to the Aux jack first, then to the isolation amp? If the SHTF, I would think that having the Aux jack immediately after Comm1 might be more betterer, though I would lose all the other audio. If the audio iso amp is so robust as to be a likely survivor of most failure modes, then perhaps having the Aux jack on the output side of it but before the intercom is best. What are your thoughts? 2. If I build the isolation amp per the mono schematics (1.8 an 1.8.1) there appear to be sufficient inputs and others can even be added (with a little breading of Bob's circuit board). However they both show only one input going to pin 3 of U115 and the rest going to pin 2. Does it matter or should the number of inputs be balanced between those two pins? Or, should they all go to pin 2 as none of the inputs are a single channel of a stereo signal? I confess my understanding of how that circuit actually works is minimal. 3. Is there a chance that this can all be done without the iso amp? I sorta figured that after about 2 mono signals you pretty well need the iso amp, but I wanted to confirm that. Finally Bob, assuming I do need an iso amp, I'd like to order one of your remaining circuit boards for it. Please advise how I should do so. I was a teenage ham radio operator and worked in an two-way radio factory during my youth so I'm very comfortable soldering and building projects. Thanks in advance, George Jenson Tucson, AZ RV-7 in progress

    Subject: PM3000 Wiring
    George: I think I can help. Today, I signed off for proto release on a new aviation audio product called the AMX-2A Audio Mixer Amplifier. It takes 10 monophonic audio sources, isolates and amplifies them into one output. Sort of like Bob's isolation amplifier, but more inputs, mono only and much smaller package. Four of the audio inputs have volume controls to allow the adjustment of audio levels from instruments that have no controls (e.g. Dynon EFIS). The other six inputs are fixed level, assuming that you have source control of the audio level from them (e.g. Comms, Traffic Monitors). All inputs are 10K ohm impedance. The output can be connected into the aux audio input on an intercom. If your intercom does not support aux inputs (Such as Sigtronics types), the output can be wired directly into the headphone bus. Both mono and stereo headphone buses are supported. All of this is contained in a small package, with a 25-pin D-sub connector (10 inputs, 2 outputs, power and 12 grounds). In fact, it's so small that the entire unit mounts in a D-sub backshell. I don't want to compete with Bob's isolation amplifier (after all it's his site), but I think he offers it more as a public service than a profit center. In that spirit, If Bob objects, I will back off. Documentation is pending, but I can send a pinout pretty quickly.

    One thing to consider... Even though they haven't made much noise about it, about a year ago PS Engineering added two mono auxiliary inputs to the PM3000. I don't know how old your unit is, but you might check with PS to see if it has the auxiliary inputs...

    Subject: wiring of 477 rotax
    From: "Sam Brunson" <samscycles@juno.com>
    I need a little help!!! I have a used rotax 447 with single carb. There are three wire looms coming out of case. #1 has a yellow wire, and a yellow wire with black stripe on it. #2 has a green wire, and a green wire with black stripe on it. #3 has two black wires, and one brown wire. I need to know where these wires should be hooked up. There is only a pull starter, and no lights. I need to know how to wire it to run and how to wire in a tach. Also I think is puts out some voltage when running that may be used somewhere. Please Help???? Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=175378#175378
