Al,
Do you have the all-in-one or the two box version?

Bill;

 

I have an LED alarm light (between +12 and pin 5), and it only comes on (flashing) when some parameter goes out of range.

Subject: [FlyRotary] EM-2 question for Tracy

 

Tracy,

I have an LED (designed for 12V)  wired up for the alarm light, and it comes on (not flashing, steady) at what seems to be about half brightness when power is applied to the EM-2. I know that the EM-2 completes a circuit to ground to flash the light when something goes out of parameter, but is the circuit designed for an incandescent bulb, and a small residual current flows that may be enough to make it glow on an LED ? Have you used it with an LED?
