Are ALL the power inputs subject to brownout reboot syndrome? A nav and comm receivers are very quick to come on line and 'heaters' certainly don't need to be supported.

I need to wire all of them to the same dimmer, see the diagram on page 4 of the attached AeroRockers Circuit Diagrams, specifically the red line to the PULSE-WIDTH DIMMER box. The switches have Faston tabs. Is there some clever way to wire this? Do I just build something with a Faston terminal at one end for the dimmer and then 10 wires coming out of it, all tied up into a bundle, each with another Faston terminal? -- Art Z. -- https://CheerfulCurmudgeon.com/ *"If I am not for myself, who is for me?

It reduces reliability to wire in series like that, but switc h illumination is relatively(?) non-critical..

His example uses a DB-25 connector, but you could substitute a DB-15 since you need fewer pins. http://aeroelectric.com/Pictures/Grounding/Minibus1.jpg Get both male and female connectors. Bridge all of the pins together on one of them, then solder your wires to the solder cups on the other one. Mate the connectors and you've got a switch illumination bus.

Nav and comm receivers are very quick to come on line and 'heaters' certainly don't need to be supported. Judging by the installation manual, the heater is powered by the "Main" input, so it's probably not possible to segregate it. I don't know about the Nav and Comm inputs; I have no experience with the GNS480.

Say, 3 in the 1st faston, and 3 or 4 into a butt splice on the end of each of the 1st 3. --- This email has been checked for viruses by Avast antivirus software. https://www.avast.com/antivirus ________________________________ Message 11 ____________________________________ Time: 09:53:01 PM PST US From: Bob Verwey Subject: Re: AeroElectric-List: Clever Wiring for Lamp Dimmer Question from a neophyte....does the dimmer not create some kind of electrical "noise"?
