I got my panel figured out, but the actual labeling layout has made me think I need to change some things. I originally had planned on having a row of toggle switches about as close together as they'd comfortably go, which is ~0.9" I believe. Here is a rough schematic of how I was planning it originally. At this stage there are no labels, i.e. the text is just to identify items in the computer image. -------- Dan Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=303606#303606 Attachments: http://forums.matronics.com//files/dans_panel_for_labels_to_scale_original_147.pdf ________________________________ Message 3 _____________________________________ Time: 01:08:49 PM PST US Subject: AeroElectric-List: Re: Switch Labeling From: "messydeer" I found that I'd have a hard time putting the actual labels on for the two 2-10 off-on-on switches, assuming I want to have the center positions labeled. So I figured I could eliminate the 'EFIS alarm' light and move the two offending switches over almost an inch. This would allow me to apply the labels to the center positions. This 'EFIS alarm' is programmable and as far as I understand it could come on as a secondary alarm to the screen alarm for any or all alarms. So I'd have the screen flashing at me as well as this light. There is also an audio alarm that can be programmed to come on through the headphones whenever any or all screen alarms come on. Seems I could rely on just the screen and audio alarms, safely ditching the extra light alarm. This is for a Sonex, which has a 30 degree tilted main panel and a 1.5" vertical subpanel. The EFIS is an MGL Enigma, which barely fits. The bold black text in this diagram is the exact size the labels might be. Font is Myriad Bold 11.47, fwiw. I thought I'd put in 12, but must have messed it up somehow. Also forgot to remove the 'primer' text on the red knob. I've printed out a full size version and it seems to be easily readable. The only difference is my panel would be Rustoleum Hammered Black and the labels white, so the contrast should be about the same. I just got Decal Pro to make these. Once applied, I've got some clear matte to spray over the top to protect them and cut down on the sorta glossy hammered finish. The only info I've gotten about labeling is from browsing pics of people's panels on the web. So please let me know if you you have any suggestions.
