I do get the occasional flameout warning during engine start - this appears to be due to a momentary 0V command to the fuel pump during the initial switchover & fuel ramp phase of the start sequence. I just ignore these.

Paul,
Reading a little closer, I realize my setup is not exactly as you described since I don't link the alarm to the Run switch. This is my setup:
· Alarm pump voltage (X< 0.2) switched by MX1 in Telemetry
· MX1 (in Telemetry) EGT (X>200)
· “Flameout” 3 times and left stick 3 short vibrations
It's the same trigger as yours and don't mind it going off on shutdown because it confirms it's working. In fact, with my setup at least, there is no way to test it without starting up and then shutting down, one way or the other.
FWIW, I've never had mine activate during a start.
Lots of different methods and options with Jeti.
