Default HELP with MGL Voyager EFIS

Does anyone have experience using the older MGL Voyager? I bought a 7A with dual Voyagers, but the previous owner has no clue how to use them? Just looking for some help with Navigation, Set up, etc. Please call or email me. I have all the manuals but pretty confusing to say the least.
Thanks

Hi Al,

I fly behind a Odyssey, which is the same as the voyager, but larger screen.

Here are a couple youtube videos that a distributor did that go over the basics:

I don't know if you knew about it but you can also download the simulator to a windows PC to get familiar with the interface without sitting in the plane.

There is also a user group forum over at www.mglavionicsusers.org that would be worth looking around too.

For the most part I've been happy with my decision to go with MGL, but one downside is they're not quite plug-and-play straightforward as some of the other offerings and their documentation is pretty fragmented as you've seen. If you have specific questions I'd be happy to answer them as best I can.

Thanks a lot.
Yes I have looked at the Videos and read the literature, but still have some questions.
Thanks

They have an office in US in Los Angeles. Their info is here:

Try and talk with Matt, he's been there since the beginning and knows the older stuff.
