I think I’ve made a mistake.
I was looking for an inexpensive engine monitor for my certified aircraft and was recommended a UBG-16. Older tech but reliable. When I purchased it I saw that the sample rate was 1/sec which is not as fast as some of the more modern (1/0.3 sec) but effective.
when I got my kit I was reading through the documentation for install when I see that the MUX-8A data collector offers 1,3,6 MINUTE data collection rates.
ideally if I’m using the data to identify engine health, more data is better.
my question: is there a commercially available serial data collector that polls at a faster rate or am I better off returning the UBG-16 kit and paying the restock fee and ordering something else?
I’ll call EI when they open but figured someone else might have already been down this road.
This was my oversight, I own it, I’m just looking at options to fix it.
