I tried and can't seem to get the battery test to take.

My backup battery failed so I replaced it. I can't seem to get the display to cancel the Caution message. I've flown 6 hours since replacement. I read and believe I followed the manual.

Most recently, I was able to use the AP button to bring up the green AP symbol on the display while on the ground. I shut it off. In the air, the AP button would not work but the AP icon in the display menu worked, as stated above.

Even before the most recent software update, my AP Panel AP switch would sometimes not start the AP. I could invoke it through the menu on the HDX. Once functioning, other buttons on the AP Panel seemed to work normally.

I loaded HDX on one plane the other day no sweat. Loaded it on two HDX on other plane today. Had to download both HDX 10 versions and the system chose the right one on it's own. Both displays hung up after data base load and I had to shut them off and restart. Did this on 16.6, also. Right...

Going through the download process, one of the screens talks to the 16.6.0 rather than the 16.7.0. Works right, just an older subject line.

If $645, panel space and extra installation is not a deal breaker, I'd install it. I have an airplane that is IFR equipped and has the AP Panel. It's handy to push some buttons and get the desired effect. I have another airplane that does not have the AP Panel. I have to go into the SkyView...

I have a dual HDX setup and have no such issues. My software is the one just previous to the new release. Which software have you installed?

I have two planes with HDX and I fly with LEMO headsets in both. A Bose A20 in one and a Lightspeed something in the other. I don't have the phenomenon you describe in either plane with either headset. I have 2 SV-COM 25s and Dual 10" HDX in the Lightspeed plane and one 10" HDX with I think...

We're getting AOA as stall warning getting conflated with AOA as speed-to-fly (not in the glider term but in the sense of seeking efficiency).

Is the AOA depicted by Dynon a real AOA, as one would expect from a vane input instrument, or is it a inferred or referred AOA based on differences in pitot and static (correction - should read "port") pressure? My bottom line question is can one fly the AOA? In a previous existence, I flew a...

I'm thinking of how to set up the Map Info column. I understand it is largely personal preference, but am curious to know your setup to see if there are some good layouts I should emulate. My airplane is IFR capable, and I want to support that kind of mission, but I mostly fly VFR on shorter...

I read the "you" as an indefinite person, not the second person. Swatson999 might have phrased it as "we all should..." I didn't see "you" as being aimed at any one specific person. I will concur in the notion that is is a good idea for us all to download and read manual updates.

I have the audio setup correctly. Rotax 912 Behavior Setting ENGINE TYPE to ROTAX 912 pre-configures some engine settings for a Rotax 912 engine. SkyView will automatically configure and dynamically change the oil temperature and tachometer scales and alert thresholds in accordance with Rotax’s...

Just installed dual HDX replacing DT1000s. I don't get an audio alert if oil temperature goes into the high red range. (I don't recall if I had audio alert on the DT1000 or not.) I've looked in the HDX Users Guide and in Chapter 12 I believe I see that oil temperature audio alert is possible. I...
