Subject: | Wiring an Engine Monitor with dual electrical systems. |
Hi everyone,
I have a GlaStar with with an aerosance fadec that went bad. To get flying again
I am pulling the fadec (which covers both fuel injection and ignition) out,
as well as the VM1000 engine monitor because it only works with the fadec. The
new engine monitor only has a main power in, and uses that to determine system
voltage.
>From my old setup, I have 2 switches on the dash that switch voltage and amperage
displays from system 1 to system 2. I am trying to figure out how to make
use of these with my new engine monitor.
Is it crazy to think I could have a SPDT (on-on) switch with 2 battery ins (the
2 load positions) and 1 output that flows through a capacitor then into the engine
monitor to switch voltages? I realize that switch is made for 1 battery
in and 2 load outs, can I run it backwards? In my mind, the capacitor would have
enough stored energy to keep the engine monitor running during the system 1/2
switch.
Im a newb with electricity so be gentle :)
