    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    One word of caution: @catienla has put this system in his 005A last year (September 2022) and he had it run once for several hours. He never posted any pictures or videos of the installation. I have not received any updates on this system as to reliability and performance or problems over...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    While Mike [ @catienla ] was waiting for his A11 to be repaired, we experimented with the ADVR 054 he had bought. {Edit} Just to make sure: Remove A11 before doing anything else by completely disconnecting J9 and J13! Also disconnect the two wires from J9 to TB 16! This way the new system is...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    Mike, this is somewhat difficult to judge from a distance. To test the AVDR 054 you would need at least a 100 Ohm / 100W+ Resistor connected to F+ and F- and then use a variable Transformer 0 to 120VAC connected to C with one leg and the other leg to A+BB (with jumper). Apply power to unit...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    Folks, I normally would not recommend these type of epoxied AVR’s for a variety of reasons and concerns, as this is a double-edged sword. The electronics off all these MEP’s are coming of age. There is no way around this. Mostly affected are all power related items like the AVR’s and all LCD...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    Ok Folks, After consulting with Kutai Electronics in Taiwan, which is a reseller of this AVR, now the clarification: The minimum resistance as Load on Terminals F+ and F- is 15 Ohm Any Coil below 15 Ohm needs to have a series power resistor, which has to be a heavy hitter in terms of power...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    Folks, To clarify this for once and for all: only the ADVR 053 can be connected to Chassis Ground for field flash. Oshkosh had sold this ADVR 053 and this is where the idea came from to utilize a Pushbutton, diode and resistor to field flash. my understanding is that ADVR 053 was discontinued...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    On the AVDR 054 the connection between A + C is the AC Voltage Sense Input and can be between 170 VAC to 520 VAC the connection between B + C is the AC power supply and should be between 170VAC and 300VAC max i left the B connection open in my wiring diagrams on purpose. please check the AVDR...

    Automatic / Manual Fieldflash with aftermarket AVR on MEP004A / 005A

    On the A11, the fieldflash is initiated by pushing S1 in Start position. When engine RPM reaches ~300 rpm the S9-1 switches from NC to NO applying 24V to K5 which then sends 24V through R35 to J9-C which is internally jumpered to J13-S which is your F1 for as long as S1 is in Start position...
