This question may be answered by anyone, but I put MGL in the title to get Rainier's attention (or any of you MGL users out there)...
I have my shunt mounted...
I plan to route things similar to this picture...
I'm using the MGL I/O Extender to get an ammeter in the EFIS, and the shunt is wired to it here-
Now, I know there is no polarity in the shunt, so I'm wondering if anyone (Rainier???) can enlighten me on the positive/negative connections on the Extender. The only thing I can think of, is that the + could be for the "high" side of the shunt, and - could be for the "low" side of the shunt.
Thoughts???![Confused :confused: :confused:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
