The gizmo itself works well enough, but for years Insight has not released theri proprietary data encryption and its pissed a lot of people off who have these things. One of the neat things these things will do is store all your engine parameters for retrival later where you can dump it into spreadsheets and other applications. Insight was locking you into some ancient HP calculator with an infra-red port. Maybe things have changed. We haven't looked for over a year now. But it might be worthwhile to ask about data retrieval before purchasing. It would be fascinating to 'read' all the parameters that lead up to your failure. (Particularly if I'm not having to pay for those engines!) Steve ----- Original Message ----- From: Randy Dettmer, AIA To: Commander Chat Sent: Wednesday, October 31, 2007 2:40 PM Subject: Commander-List: Engine Analyzer I am looking at installing an engine analyzer on my 680F when I hang the re-built engines in several weeks. Any advice out there on recommended systems and prices..?? John Vormbaum, I believe that you had a system installed on your 500B. What system was it and how much did it cost..?? I am also interested in any advice from you experienced geared Commander guys about recommended procedures for breaking in and operating the new engines. You can believe that I will want to be VERY conservative in treating those engines with TLC. Thanks.

He said that, given the resources, the AuRacle would likely be his choice. It has USB transfer and apparently is (software) upgradeable via USB too. Don't know anything else about it.
