This appendix contains information not covered in the main section of the manual. This section contains reference tools
such as a detailed description of the serial data format output by the EFIS-D10A, a specifications sheet, and a

Appendix A: Serial Data Output
The EFIS-D10A has one RS232 serial port which outputs EFIS data. Technical information on the installation and
connection to these serial ports can be found in the EFIS-D10A Installation Guide. To log EFIS data, you must connect
the serial port to a PC. This serial data can be logged using any standard serial terminal program such as
HyperTerminal®. It can then be parsed into its respective columns by many spreadsheet programs including Microsoft
Excel®. All numbers are output in decimal and are standard ASCII. To view the data using a terminal program, the
following settings should be used for both serial ports:
Baud rate: 115200
Data: 8 bit
Parity: none
Stop: 1 bit
Flow control: none
The following section details the format used for EFIS data output.
