Switch List

  • Master - main power, MGL RDAC, MGL Xtreme EFIS
  • Alt. Field
  • Avionics Master - all other avionics
  • Keyed Mag/Start Switch
  • Landing Light (On/Off)
  • Taxi Light (On/Off)
  • Stroble Lights (On/Off)
  • Beacon Light (On/Off)
  • Dome Light (On/Off)
  • Mag 1 Test (On/Off) -- Maybe push button when pressed is off?
  • Mag 2 Test (On/Off) -- Same as Mag 1 Test

1

Trig TT-92 manual does not specify a current draw but for wiring a 3a breaker is suggested.
2: I did not find the MGL RDAC XF current draw in the MGL manual, I found it on the additional information page for Michigan Avionics.
3: Once the engine RPM is above X RPM the e-Mags produce their own power and no longer draw on alternator or battery.

Device Detail

Wiring

Goals

  1. Simple
  2. Engine runs if master is off
  3. Master switch enables the essential bus for engine startup monitoring

General Notes

Master Bus will power:

  1. Essential Bus (direct)
  2. Avionics Bus (through switch)

Essential Bus will power:

  1. MGL Xtreme EFIS
  2. MGL RDAC

Avionics Bus will power:

  1. MGL SP-6 Magnetometer
  2. MGL SP-7 AHRS
  3. Stratux ADS-b
  4. Trig TY-21 Com Radio
  5. Trig TT-92 Transponder

Nomenclature

Breakers have no pin numbers, but for wiring purposes I'll describe pin 1 as Input and pin 2 as Output.

Switches (typically) do not have pin numbers, but for the purposes of wiring I'll describe pin 1 as the common switched pin, pin 2 as option 1, and pin 3 (if DT) as option 2.
