Mark,
Me too (manual at airport). I updated my EC2
in January and the new manual says Mode 9 to copy.
So clarify what "it worked fine" means? Does
that mean that the engine runs more or less the same on A & B after the
copy? Or does that simply mean that you know the data copied OK?
So far the only person who has actually
answered my question was Dave. Was kinda hoping to hear from Tracy but I guess
he's otherwise occupied ( I emailed him a few days ago).

Al,
My EC-2 manual is at the airport, but I'm pretty sure that
the latest manual says to use Mode 9 to copy A to B. Following
the EC-2 manual, I did that on Sunday and it worked fine. I know that
Tracy made some changes to a few of the modes. As always...
follow the installation manual, and after an upgrade always throw out the old
manual.

Mode 9???
Unless your unit is different, copy A to B is mode 2 – and it copies
everything. Mode 9 is for fine adjustment of mixture settings, and is used
for ato-tune in conjunction with the EM2.

[FlyRotary] EC2 setup
I now have the airplane running
pretty good throughout the RPM range on controller A. Using Mode 9 I copied
the program to the B controller. I assumed that the engine would run the
same (more or less) on B after the copy, but no... Seems to be rich
throughout the range - to the point of mis-firing, surging, running rough,
etc.... I think I can tweak everything to settle it down, but is this
normal? I assumed there may be differences in the MAP sensor which would
result in a small difference but really did not expect such a drammatic
difference. At most throttle settings I have to turn the mixture full lean
to smooth it out.
Does the Mode 9 copy just copy
the MAP table or does it also copy things like the staging point, the global
injector setting, etc...
If I can get this B controller
dialed in I'll be out of excuses - time to fly.
