Hi,



I have a V7 vario connected to an Oz FLARM and HX4700 PDA. All devices get powered from V7.



If the PDA is not 100% charged, the V7 resets in flight. When it happens, FLARM restarts and the program that runs on the PDA looses GPS signal.



Usually the program comes back as soon the FLARM regains the PS signal, but every now and then, the programs drops to he operating system and the flight stats are lost.



Has anyone experienced this problem? Any advice or suggestion will be appreciated.



Thanks

I've had a V7 for about a year, running with only an Oz-Flarm GPS input. No power problems until I decided to connect the V7 to my Avier navigator when it became evident very quickly that the V7 could not supply sufficient power to run the Avier let alone keep the battery charged. Occasionally the whole system would drop out when the V7 rebooted. I now power the Avier from a separate 5 volt supply whilst retaining the data feed from the V7, both inputting through the same mini-USB connector at the Avier. It's early days but I think that has fixed the problem.
