#Avmap geosat 6 update manual
The AvMap EGT thermocouple sensor is available for purchase at an authorized AvMap reseller or directly at the AvMap web shop at The installation manual is available here: AvMap EGT ProbeĪvMap suggests to use AvMap EGT thermocouple sensors or Rotax EGT thermocouple sensors (PN.

Check FAQ “How can I install screw-in type thermocouple sensors on my Rotax Engine?” for more information on this subject.ĪvMap EGT thermocouple sensor is ungrounded, type K and screw in type version and includes a M8x1 weld boss for connection to the exhaust bend. How the thermocouple sensor gets connected to the engine exhaust bend is not relevant for the EngiBOX.Īlthough, referring to the Rotax installation manual for 912 and 914 engine series, AvMap suggest to follow Rotax instructions for connecting the thermocouple sensor using a screw-in type to be connected to the exhaust bend on the connection thread M8x1.Ĭheck if the connection thread M8x1 for attachment of the thermocouple sensor is already provided in the exhaust bend.

In that case it might be necessary to proceed step by step as described in the following steps:Ġ - Start applying a 1K ohm resistor in series between RPM source and EngiBOX input (in this step the second RPM instrument must NOT be connected)ġ - Check the correct functioning of the Engibox: if EngiBOX is not working properly it is necessary to decrease the resistor value slowly.Ģ – Once you found the value for which the EngiBOX starts to work properly, it is possible to connect the second instrument.ģ - If the second instrument also works correctly then the problem is solved, otherwise it is necessary to increase the resistor value and check restart again at point 2.Ĥ - Proceed in this way until the right resistance value is found for which both devices work properly.ĮngiBOX requires to connect UNGROUDED thermocouple sensors, type K or J. If the other RPM instrument is NOT able to correctly measure RPM with a 100 ohm load (example it stops working when you connect the EngiBOX in parallel) it is probably possible to "by-pass" the problem by applying a 100 ohm resistor in series between the engine RPM source and EngiBOX input (RPM +) and connect the other instrument directly to the RPM source (see image)Īs the value of the resistance depends on many factors, it is possible that 100 ohm is not enough. This is equivalent to EngiBOX RPM usage in parallel with another RPM instrument. Verify if the other RPM instrument is able to correctly measure RPM with a 100 ohm load applied between RPM input and instrument ground. To use the EngiBOX RPM in parallel with another RPM instrument depends on the capacity of the other instrument.
