Update: December 9,
2010
Over the Thanksgiving
holiday the EICommander experienced it first “Save”.
A customer was flying
his EICommander equipped GlasAir
when the EICommander displayed a Timing Divergence
Alarm. Upon landing the
pilot/builder removed and inspected both of his P-mags. While nothing was amiss with the
ignitions he did notice one magneto gear was sufficiently worn to cause
the EICommander to issue a yellow caution
alarm. Upon replacement of the
offending gear and reinstallation of his ignition, the Timing Divergence
Alarm returned to the bottom of the “green”.
Additional features
have been added and the manual has been updated.
E Timing Divergence Alarm (TDA)
will display the difference in timing between any combination of E or
P-mag Ignitions.
E Continuous monitoring of
ignition harnesses on 114 series E or P-mag Ignitions. A reading
below 50 indicates either a short or fouled plug (short spark duration),
above 70 indicates either a broken wire or plug (long spark duration).
Review the manual for a
complete list of features.
