As an experiment I re-attached the SBC serial out to the EIS feed, firstly on the A line then the B. Still no go, however accidently the A line grounded on the fuselage and everything sprung to life. This is a 'maybe' solution, I'll need to talk with Jabe @ AeroSance, I don't think pulling one of the data lines (A) to ground is a good long term solution. It is really nice to see the EIS / MFDs working wih engine data however.

Also noted some slightly strange temperature numbers on the MFDs (degrees C vs degree F) - questions for GRT.


Moving onto something different I sorted the mounting of the cover plates for the side vents. I've decided to go with a couple of #8 screws plus the mid location for a extra push-to-talk button.
After lots of careful trimming, both sides now have a contoured edge and rebate for the switch / XLR connector.
The finished look, it will make getting the panel in / out very hard but looks neat and tidy.
