Default ZAON XRX modification DIY

Hi,

I was looking to build an XRX unit in the wingtip of my RV9, as ADS-B for light aircraft is still several years away in europe.

ZAON used to have a factory modification that made the unit start automatically when power was applied (so without using any of the buttons on the unit). Now that ZAON seems to be out of business, I was wondering whether I can make the modification myself and if anyone can help me on how it should be done.

Any suggestions will be much appreciated.

Kind regards

Leon
