Is there any reason not to connect the EFIS audio output to the DME
input to the audio panel, and connect the AOA audio output to the ADF
input of the SL-15.

It seems like a good way to get the signals into the audio chain while
being able to turn them on or off as needed.
Is this a good idea?

Duane,
Why would you want to deactivate the audio on a
stall warning device? If you are concerned with
spurious warnings becoming a distraction, which I
think would only happen very, very, infrequently, why
not have a guarded AOA deactivate switch? I think
stall warning or any warning system is a poor place
for a regular on/off audio switch. It's just too easy
to accidentally have the switch in the wrong place and
these warnings can save your bacon in a tight spot.
Safe flying,
Bob

Having spent a significant amount of time flying behind an AoA based
stall warning system, I found that it could drive you nuts when you are
flying aerobatics and always looking for that last little bit of lift
before the stall. You do want a way to turn off the audio from the stall
warning system (if possible).

And you might consider your aircraft's stall behavior when trying to
decide just how important stall warning is. Frankly, most of the
aircraft we fly offer plenty of warning before stalling and then have a
benign stall behavior.

But your point is well taken that you probably don't want the stall
warning turned off by accident.

There is no reason that it won't work. I know it works with the Garmin 340
Audio panel. The only thing you have to beware of is the need to
re-placard the switches to not their new functions on the audio panel.

Cheers,

Which leads to the question - anybody know a good way of replacing /
sourcing GMA340 buttons with different text on them, eg. EFIS, AoA.
