Hello Avidyne Users and Avidyne,

we use in our Cirrus SR22 G1(2003) the Entegra EX5000C R8.1.

There ist something wrong, so we have allway Set the system date new,

maybe CMOS Battery ?

Is there any special USB Stick necassary for reading DataLog?

Not all flight are logged, any idea.

Sorry for my short text, my language is not so perfekt.

Regards Dieter

When the CMOS battery fails, the MFD does not know what the date and time is when it boots up, which are things it needs to know. But as I understand it, after booting up it connects to your GPS and knows to get the date and time from it instead. So I'm told - my CMOS battery still works. Replacing the CMOS battery will prevent the error message, so that's something.
