EHSI No Data
« on: December 21, 2016, 12:40:41 AM »
Question,

Sometimes with rampstart, my EHSI will not start up ?

I use the mfd extractor.
This happens since i added an USB controller.
Also when i startup mfd ectractor program it takes 15 sec before i see the instruments, before not more then 2 seconds.

Who recognize this problem?

You ramp start but your PWR switch is in BATT.
EHSI gets power from the main gen, it's a classical mistake to make a ramp start with the pwr switch in battery. that will lead to all sorts of problems, including the EHSI remaining in NO DATA

Having NO DATA means MFDE works, otherwise you would't have any display active.
The no data is simply BMS behaviour to tell you that the EHSI is not powered correctly

Suggest a read of the dash1 or use the bms checklists :)

I used the bms checklist for rampstart, but still No Data....

Selection for example, landing or ils flight, everything works fine.

I have to switch Bat power, but how can i get power of the main gen, to start up EHSI ?

Or is there something wrong with switch connection....

The power switch should be switched to main power. This video from @Snowman is awesome.

the MAIN power switch has three position: OFF, BATT, MAIN
1st move it to BATT (middle) then to MAIN (up position)

try first in 3D cockpit so you rule out any switch issue in your physical cockpit
