First off, Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Working on the final sensor hookups firewall forward and have a couple questions for you Dynon installers.
Dynon list pins 5,16 & 17 as shared sensor grounds with pin 3 being the avionics bus ground. I wired in the fuel pressure sensor and simply ran a ground from the sensor to the my ground bus and grounded using the 5,16, 17. I got the same 0 reading both ways on the screen. Any problem going directly to the bus? The reason I ask, if I add something in the future and use up 5,16 and 17 on my initial install, I want to be able to have an out without splicing.
Pin 18 is the +5V excitation wire for sensors such as carb temp and manifold pressure. Since this is only one wire, I was thinking of using a small bus bar to leave open future possibilities. Anyone got any pics of a simple splice?
Getting close and loving it.
