| Subject: | EFIS 1 and SL-30 |
--> Avionics-List message posted by: "Mark Taylor" <mtaylo17@msn.com>
Friends,
I have a Blue Mountain EFIS 1 which I'll be interfacing with an Apollo
SL-30. On th e SL-30, I have to set the output to Serial, instead of
resolver, so it can talk to EFIS 1. EFIS 1 will then perform as the display
head for VOR, LOC & G/S, and I can set OBS from EFIS 1, and also radio
frequecies from a the database. Pretty cool.
However, I would like to have a second CDI, just in case of EFIS failure. I
asked the questoin of Blue Mountain if I can do this, and they said yes, but
I wouldn't be able to use the resolver inputs to the SL-30 form the CDI.
My question is (finally) what exactly will I be losing doing this? What is a
resolver anyhow?!
I already have the EFIS and SL-30, SL-70 and an Apollo annunciator to go
with the GX-60 GPS. I just want to have all my bases covered if it all goes
belly up.
Thanks in advance!
Mark Taylor

Sounds like a question that the folks at GArmin AT tech support should be
able to answer or work you thru the solution. If it is the same crew as
was there before the buyout, they are super helpful.
Cheers,
John
