The situation:

 

MFD #1 of 2 when turned on goes through the BIOS boo= t and then returns a blinking cursor.  Multiple reboots produces the s= ame result (pushing both knobs at same time for a few seconds).  MFD #= 2 boots right to Chelton Flight Systems screen.

 

The scenario and events leading to the situation:

 

I have a Crossbow 500 AHRS that quit giving attitude= reference about the last 15 hours of flight time.  I have two brand n= ew Chelton units that have never come out of the box.  They are 2006 o= r 2007 vintage.  I have a brand new Poinpoint GADAHRS  with MSU and GPS antenna also never out of box and same = ; vintage. 

 

My plan has been to replace the Cheltons and install= the Poinpoint equipment at the same time.  I was told that I could sw= ap out the Cheltons but should first pull off the “limits.txt” = file using a smart media card in the #1 PFD.

 

I first removed the Crossbow 500 ( unplugged it) and= then remembered to get that limits file.  Booting up the #1 PFD resul= ted in the problem in the first paragragh.  Mutliple tries with the ca= rd in or out did not improve the result.  Then I plugged the Crossbow AHRS back in to see if that would help.  No im= provement.  I can’t think of another trick to get beyond this an= d I  am wondering if any of the steps I did could have brought this on= .

 

 

To be very clear, no matter how I boot up (with or w= ithout the memory card and by turning the unit on or by pushing the two kno= bs) I get the same result.  Once the BIOS testing is done the screen g= oes to a blank with a blinking white cursor on the left side.

 

Any help or advice on how to get the limits.txt file= appreciated. 

 

Thanks in advance.
