We have one of these in our RV-8A.
After three months, Mary and I have gotten used to reading the arcane and marginally useful information that this unit provides, but frankly we hate the thing. It's clunky and awkward to use, on a good day.
In our previous two aircraft we had JPI EDM-700s, and truly grew to love that format, and are hoping to install something similar or better in our new bird. Since this unit has transducers coming from all over, and I don't want to just throw the whole system away, it would be nice to keep the wiring -- but what are my options? Is there a plug and play replacement display that would use this unit's existing wiring but give us a modern graphic display of engine information?
Thanks for your help!
