Appendix A: Ongoing Maintenance and Troubleshooting

INTRODUCTION

This section gives the installer or mechanic information pertaining to maintenance of the EFIS-
D10A. Additionally, it provides the steps necessary to ensure continued airworthiness for the
unit.

CAUTION

With the exception of replacing the internal emergency battery, the EFIS-D10A contains no user-
serviceable parts. Refer all servicing to Dynon Avionics.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONTINUED AIRWORTHINESS

Other than for regulatory periodic checks and an annual internal battery capacity test (if optional
internal emergency battery is installed), maintenance of the EFIS-D10A is “on-condition” only.
With the exception of the battery, periodic maintenance of the EFIS-D10A is not required.

AP SERVO INSTALLATION

At least once per year, inspect the installation of the AP servo(s) for excessive wear. Ensure that
all hardware and fasteners are tightly secured.

ALTIMETER CHECK

The following test can be performed on an as-needed basis. If the altimeter is found to be out of
specification, the following single-point adjustment can be performed by navigating the menus to
SETUP > ALTADJ. In the Altimeter Adjustment menu, you can change the displayed altitude by
up to 500 feet up or down. After making this adjustment, ensure that the altimeter on the EFIS-
D10A meets the tolerances allowed between 0 and 30,000 feet. If this adjustment does not bring
the altimeter on the EFIS-D10A to within specification at all attitudes, please contact Dynon
Avionics to return for service.

INTERNAL BATTERY CHECK

If your EFIS-D10A has a rechargeable internal emergency battery, it is necessary to ensure that
the battery capacity is such that it will last at least 2 hours on a full charge. At least once per
year, perform the following test.

1. With the EFIS-D10A drawing power from an external source, allow it to charge its

internal battery above 16.0 volts. Observe the voltmeter under the INFO selection option
in the menu system. The battery may charge to as high as 16.8 volts, but it is only
necessary to charge it to 16.0 volts for this test.
