What is the AP74 and is it required for the Dynon AP to work?
The AP74 is an optional, dedicated control and indicator panel for the Dynon AP. It’s available in horizontal or vertical configuration. Primarily, the AP74 makes the AP more convenient and easier to use. There are a few feature additions with the AP74: • You can pre-select which mode will be active when you engage the AP. So you can hit “NAV” before you hit “engage” and it will come on in NAV mode. • Voice alerts capability (not just for AP, but also for other alerts). • Auto-dimming (it has a light sensor that can use to automatically dim all Dynon instruments). • Bugs can be set with a knob instead of button pushes.
