Alert Message

Description

End condition

INTERNAL
BATTERY LOW

You will see this alert only when
operating the unit solely off the
internal backup battery. When its
voltage has dropped below a certain
threshold, you will see this alert.
Additionally, the voltmeter will be
displayed onscreen. When you see
this alert, it is advisable that you turn
the unit off by pressing the POWER
button in Main Menu 1.

The alert will disappear when you
press any button; however, it is
advised that you do not ignore this
alert, as it appears when the unit’s
internal battery has very little life
left. This alert will also go away
upon the application of either the
external backup battery or Master
Power. At that point, the battery will
begin charging off the external
power.

REMOTE
COMPASS NOT
DETECTED

The EFIS-D6 is unable to
communicate with the EDC-D10A.

Ensure that you a) have an EDC-
D10A installed and b) have verified
that the wiring to the EDC-D10A is
correct. Please see the EFIS-D6
Installation Guide for more
information on verifying the
installation of the EDC-D10A.

Problem

Solution

After performing a magnetic
calibration the EFIS-D6‘s
heading is wrong by a constant
amount.

Orient your plane in a known direction, preferably on a
compass rose at the airport. Navigate to the Heading
Adjustment menu by pressing SETUP > MAGADJ.
Increment or decrement the value of the heading until the
EFIS-D6 heading corresponds to the direction in which your
plane is pointed.

When the barometer on the unit
is set correctly, the displayed
altitude is wrong by a constant
amount at all altitudes.

Set the barometer to the correct value for your current
location. Note the difference between the displayed altitude
and the actual altitude for your location. Navigate to the
Altitude Adjustment menu by pressing SETUP > ALTADJ.
Increment or decrement the value of the altitude until the
EFIS-D6 altitude corresponds to that of the current location
of your plane. If you need to adjust by more than 200 ft, or
find that you need to adjust frequently (after setting your
baro), please call Dynon Technical Support for assistance.
