SWITCHES & CIRCUITS:

Download the latest “Read Me” file, firmware, and configuration files for your EFIS from the
Downloads page of the Van’s Aircraft website.
NOTE: The read me document explains the process of downloading and installing
Van’s Aircraft factory settings for the RV-12iS, including TRIM take off and AP servo
configuration, etc.

Check (during the first 5 mins after the hour) ELT function using test switch in the remote
panel.

Master switch “ON”.

Verify that the avionics cooling fans come on and move air in opposite directions, one into the
instrument bay and one out of the instrument bay.

(ULS) Verify that the electric auxiliary fuel pump turns on (noticeable clacking noise).

(ULS) Master switch “OFF”

(ULS) Remove fuel pump fuse and tape it to the top of the pilot control stick

(ULS) Master switch “ON”.

(iS) “Fuel Pump 1” switch “ON”.

(iS) Verify that Fuel Pump #1 turns on.

(iS) “Fuel Pump 2” switch “ON”.

(iS) Verify that Fuel Pump #2 turns on.

(iS) Turn both fuel pump switches off.

Verify EFIS display comes on .

Connect a battery charger (compatible with your battery) to bring the bus voltage to
approximately 13.6 volts.

Follow the instructions in the downloaded “Read Me” file to update and configure your EFIS
per the manufacturer’s instructions.

Actuate “NOSE UP” side of trim switch.

Verify that when holding the trim switch the motor stops after 6 seconds and requires cycling
the switch “OFF” then “ON” to continue motion. NOTE: The built in “Runaway Trim”
function prevents a stuck switch from moving the trim tab too far in order to avoid
extreme “out of trim” conditions.

Continue to cycle the switch until the trim motor reaches full “NOSE UP” travel.

Verify that the tab is trailing edge down from the stabilator trailing edge.

Actuate “NOSE DOWN” side of trim switch and use a stopwatch to determine how long it
takes the motor to run full travel. Remember to quickly cycle the switch off every 4 seconds
to allow nearly continuous motion. Run time:
seconds.
NOTE: Auto Trim is provided when the SV-AP optional panel or Garmin AP pitch
servo is installed. On the ground the trim speed will run faster with auto trim.
Auto trim overrides the AV-60000 trim speed adjustment. This is true for Garmin when
the AP is on. If the SV AP Knobs is installed auto trim is always active.
The trim motor will not operate if AV-60000 trim speed adjustment is set too low when
the Garmin AP Pitch Servo is installed.
