I had verified early on
that the connections are securely in place. The MAP readout on the EM2 is
coming from the data feed from the EC2, so if the EM2 says 13” then ‘presumably’
the EC2 is using 13”.
Ok, forgot about you folks with your extra
instrumentation.
I have not asked but presume you have tried the "B"
controller. In my case, it made no difference because neither pressure
sensor were sensing manifold pressure. But, if one is connected then
switch controllers should make a difference (if this is the
problem).
I have not yet tried controller B. I
believe it is still all set to default settings. During the relatively
brief runs so far I have stayed with controller A because I made changes in
timing, injector flow rates, mixture balance between rotors, and the mixture
correction table, during the dyno runs. I don’t want to abandon that as it
was one of the main features of that test program – get all that stuff out of
the way before I got it on the airplane.
Al, I
don't understand your reluctance to switch to controller B just to check.
I am not suggesting changing any thing if you had it set up on the dyno, but it
would elminate the possiblity that the problem is with controller A.
Switching to controller B will not distrube your MAP settings that
you have with controller A. They both have their individual
MAPs.
