    SV-AP-PANEL

    OK, so it sounds like if I want to go install the SV-AP-PANEL and have it control the trim, I need to move the servo motor power/ground and up/down/left/right control wires over from the VP-X to the SV-AP-PANEL, but the VP-X could still provide the necessary +2.5V reference voltage and ground...

    SV-AP-PANEL

    I've got the pitch and roll trim currently set up with the VP-X. Looking at the wiring for the SV-AP-PANEL, there doesn't seem to be any trim position information coming back to the Skyview. On the VP-X, I have the pitch and roll trim position indications. How does trim position information get...

    Foreflight connection ?

    Is there any way currently to do flight planning on the web or an app, then upload to Skyview?

    Egt spikes

    Ran the airplane today, downloaded the data logs and no more EGT/CHT spikes! Looks like Dynon has the cure for the EMS units.

    Egt spikes

    It is a known issue, if you search this forum. I had the issue also and recently returned my EMS unit to have the filtering added. Should get it back next week and then will see if the fix helps.

    GPS-250: No data, no position

    I initially had a problem like this. I had the power/ground wires swapped ::) Once I flipped those wires everything has been working fine.

    SV Comm noticeably weaker than removed king KY197

    Flew again today, this time both Ground and Tower frequencies were basically unreadable. No difference with engine on or off. Off to the radio shop next to see what they can find.

    SV Comm noticeably weaker than removed king KY197

    I have tried a number of things, but yesterday I did a radio check with Ground on 121.65. Loud and clear with the engine off. Start the engine. Nothing else electrical changed. Try to talk to Ground again, and nothing. I can get the Tower on 119.875, but nothing on the ground frequency. The...

    SV Comm noticeably weaker than removed king KY197

    I erred in my previous statement about the default mic gain being 5%. It is actually 50% in the COM menu. The sidetone is 5%. I did bump up the mic gain to 70% and flew today. No improvement. I did notice after updating to SV 10.1 that there was some instructions given on the menu about setting...

    What are you setting the mic gain to? If I recall, the default is 5%.

    EMS spikes etc

    I definitely have a pre-2012 EMS unit. I will get it back to you. I'm just now trying to finish up my build and get it all sorted as best I can prior to first flight. Has anyone had this RF interference affect the ability to transmit on the Dynon COM radio? My COM works great on receive, but...

    EMS spikes etc

    Is there a S/N range for the potentially affected EMS units? My EGT's/CHT's spike when trying to transmit on the Dynon COMM radio. Here is some example data from a recent taxi test.

    SV not seeing the GPS

    OK, problem is SOLVED! I'm the problem. I had the power/ground wires swapped going to the GPS! I had previously checked the voltage and ground continuity, but for some reason after staring at the wires for several hours I didn't see the problem at the connector on the GPS antenna. Orange...

    SV not seeing the GPS

    Some more trouble shooting today. I tried using the RX/TX lines from Serial port #3 (last screenshot), and same story. Here are some screen shots. I guess I will call Dynon this week and see about getting it fixed.

    SV not seeing the GPS

    I pulled the plane out of the hangar today as a final test, and it wasn't able to get anything out of the GPS being outside either. The serial port #5 wires are all correctly connected RX to TX and vice versa. I've only got the single Dynon SV Display. The four wires are all color coded and are...

    SV not seeing the GPS

    I have the 10" Skyview display and have the SV-GPS-250 hooked as shown in the installation instructions. I have verified continuity on all of the 4 signal lines to the GPS. The power line shows +8V (should it be 12V?). I have set up the Serial port #5 as specified in the installation...

    Updating from 3.1 to 7.1

    I finally got everything wired up and turned on. I'm trying to update my 10" SV to the latest 7.1. I boot up the EFIS, then insert the USB drive with the files, go to the system upgrade screen and nothing shows up on the screen to update. Am I missing something? I gave the plane an N-number. I...

    Blacked out diagrams in Installation Guide?

    I printed out the Version 7, rev P Skyview Install guide. For some reason the detailed COM wiring diagrams are all black on pages 16-9 to 16-11. Was using a regular old Xerox printer/scanner/fax machine at my office from the PDF downloaded on my MacBook. I'm not sure why the printer would mess...

    Mounting screws

    Is there an AN or MS part number for these black oxide button head allen screws? I have ones supplied by Dynon for the Skyview display and intercom unit, but didn't get any for the COM radio. I also have some other instruments that I could use the same type screws on just to make the panel look...
