| Subject: | Vision Microsystems VMS 1000C |
In my RV-6 which is powered by a 160 HP Lycoming O-320 I have a Vision
Microsystems VMS 1000C. On Sunday the 7th July it worked flawlessly but
on Saturday the 13th of July it unfortunately did not work. I have not
used it between these dates.
The problem with my VMS 1000C is that it displays *Err* on the readings
for *MAN*, *OIL PSI*, *FUEL SYS PSI*, *FUEL QTY* *L* and *FUEL QTY **R*.
Furthermore the readings for *OIL TEMP* and *CHT *seem suspect. *OIL
TEMP* showed some 370 even though I have not run the engine for a week.
I switched on the fuel pump but that did not give any fuel pressure
reading. As for the fuel level, the tanks are approximately one third
full. Their capacity is 19 US gal.
Do you know whether the fault lies within my VMS 1000C or with a fault
in the electrical connections? In the latter case which circuits may
need to be reconnected?
It seems to me that Vision Microsystems is defunct and has been so for
many years.

VMS was purchased by JPI a number of years ago. Shortly after that the 'C' came
out and support for the earlier versions became more difficult to acquire.
I pulled mine and replaced it with an AFS 3400 EM which I have since upgraded to
EE. I sold my VM1000 parts one at a time to help other users keep their systems
running.
