I chose to install this sensor for tach input into my GRT EIS http://www.aircraftspruce.com/catalog/inpages/mgltachslick.php Does anyone know the correct setting for the GRT EIS? The default for a 6 cylinder, 4cycle engine is a setting of '0' which corresponds to '1.5' signals per rpm as I read it. I assume that is for there P-lead sensing setup. I don't have access to a external tach yet to verify but would appreciate any help. I'm calling GRT too. Thanks Bill "so close and yet..."

I switched from the p-lead sensor to the hall effect mag sensor on my Dynon, and the correct setting for both is 1.5. -Rob On Fri, Aug 5, 2011 at 7:16 AM, Bill Watson wrote: > > I have 2 Slick mags.

I'm chuckling with you. I have a friend who had a Navajo and a couple of small kids (4 & 6). On Angel flights, they'd come along but he didn't have to climb to O2 levels to knock 'em out. The first time out with him I asked him "do they ever settle down?" Watch this.... going thru 8k they sat down and conked out. Which of course meant they were full of energy as we arrived... and they were fun then! Bill 40605 ==> N215TG On 8/4/2011 4:30 PM, Rick Lark wrote: > Funny you should mention that.
