This may be a better question asked directly to Dynon, but thought I'd ask here anyway.
My RV-10 has four fuel tanks with a combined capacity of 120 gallons. Only the outboard fuel tanks have fuel fillers installed. Only the inboard tanks have fuel level transducers.
In each wing, they are currently plumbed in series (the outboard tank flows into the inboard tank via a hose) and operate as one virtual 60 gallon tank.
This makes fuel management a bit challenging as I often cannot know what I have above and beyond 30 gallons.
I am in the planning phase of a panel update to Dynon/Advanced and am curious if there is a way to have > 2 fuel tanks supported by the EMS.
I imagine that if it did, the EFIS would need a way of displaying them.
By looking at the wiring diagram the EMS module supports two. I could add a second EMS and interface them together, but then if I did that, I wonder if the EMS display will support the 4 fuel inputs?
Another thought is to wire inboard/outboard fuel senders in series so they too operate together as one virtual 60 gallon tank. I was told this is possible but have not researched it.
