- Ran the wire from the left hot battery bus to the G3X aux power switch and the G3X aux power fuse block.
- Temporarily installed G3X PFD and MFD displays and made some adjustments to wiring bundles
- Put a temporary CAN bus terminator on the roll servo wiring
- Connected my test battery to the left hot battery bus and turned on the G3X aux power switch - everything powered up perfectly. Both displays booted up and I got flashing green leds on the ADAHRS and the GEA 24 engine interface which indicates good network communication.
- I upgraded the software for both G3X displays and the PFD automatically upgraded the software for the ADAHRS - very easy.
- I spent a fair amount of time playing with the G3X system - I'm impressed with all the capabilities!
- I started working on the final wiring for the VPX which involves wiring for the battery contactors and the switches that are hooked to the VPX.
- I ran wires for the main and aux battery contactor and the starter annunciator.
- I also built up a wire to monitor aux battery voltage which requires a resistor to be soldered in line.
G3X looks great!:
