[quote]I’m wiring up my Dynon 180 and finding that it doesn’t seem to be directly compatible with the MAC servos that we use for trim control. MAC outputs position indication on 3 wires to their LED indicator but if you want to put that into the Dynon, their input is from a variable pot that they excite with 5 volts and use the variable input on one of the 3 general purpose inputs. I don’t see a problem with this except using the MAC output would be a lot cleaner. I guess I will have to backtrack and add a pot to measure position to each of the MAC servos. Anyone else have a better idea?Albert GardnerYuma, AZRV-10 #10-422 [b]

Wow! I posted this message a minute ago and it doesn't have any line feeds
in it so I'm trying again-should be more readable, I hope now,

Dynon updatede the install manual for the trim indicators. you do NOT need a pot......I am not at the hanger but I have the info there as we connected both trim and aileron to these indicator on the D120.
