First, a thousand thanks to Joe Hull, who has taught me how to record a macro in Excel to do what I needed to do.  I'm sure there's a dozen other ways, but this suits my purposes just dandy for now.  I now have the ability to record serial data from the Dynon EMS to SD memory cards, then convert the data to a usable Excel spreadsheet.  The Dynon D180 has two separate ports for EMS and EFIS data.  The Antilog RS232 recorder ( http://www.zen30649.zen.co.uk/product_antilog.html ) will capture two channels at once, so the next step is to make a custom cable to access both ports, and do another macro.   Dave, you've no doubt seen me whining about datalogging on the Dynon forum.  At least Tracy can feel better knowing that he's not the only one being harassed :-)   If you have any specific questions about the Antilog device, ask away.  My datalogging solution ain't the slickest, but it does look like it will work.  Cheers,
Rusty
 
PS, did anyone hear for sure that Tracy made it safely to OshCash?  Is anyone else flying there, or just Tracy?

Russ...
   Actually Im pretty new to the Dynon forum, and just started browsing/contributing.. Which model anti-log are you using, and does your setup run on ships power or batt?

And refresh my memory.. did you ever devise a way to capture data from the EC/EM combination or is that still aways off?

Dave
