    v15 bug(?) - HSI no longer circular

    Cool. I like how they tweaked the PFD. I'm OK with the oval shape although I normally use the 40/40/20 layout and the HSI is pretty much round there. Can't wait to try it out. :) :)

    SV EMS-220 pin 6 versus 8

    Could be a typo. Pin 6 and 8 can be used for either sensor on a Lycoming/Continental. Pin 6 is the only special purpose pin (Level B) for Rotax oil pressure.

    backup battery

    Flying may be the best way to charge the SV backup battery but not the safest. I use a battery charger after doing the annual backup battery check. At our hanger crawl last March I connected a battery charger and left the main power switch and SV on so that it could be viewed. I pulled the...

    Thanks Louis. Happy to hear. May spend some more time on the EMS Editor this winter.

    Include total flight time in User Log

    In the mean time you could use a User Log parser found here: http://www.digitalmapping.sk.ca/flightlog/FlightLogParser.htm

    Engine page layout measurements

    I changed my web site provider and my web sites were down. The link above works again. The application has more function than before but is still very BETA.

    Dynon radio

    You might have to add a resistor. See here: https://www.sigtronics.com/_pdf/air_pdf/air_intercom_pdf/SPA-400_Garmin_GTR225_Inst.pdf The volume on my friends SL40/Sigtronic combination was very low. The resistor solved the problem.

    Flight Log

    There is some discussion of flight logs here: http://dynonavionics.com/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl?num=1424455192 Unfortunately I'm changing my web page so the FlightLogParser software is not available just now.

    What is default squelch setting of SV-COM-C25?

    Another source of static. I have two cigarette lighter plugs in my panel that I insert USB chargers. One I use for my iPad. Foreflight kills the iPad battery in about half a day so I keep it plugged in for most flights. The other I occasionally plug in my phone if I'm using it as a hotspot for...

    VP-X Starter Switch Problem

    So an etcetera to this problem. I flew a few x country flights thru the Canadian Rockies this weekend and VP-X didn't act up and crash my plane into any big rocks. That part is good. The start button light also didn't act up during flight. That's also a good sign, but I'm not convinced the...

    Intro

    I did a lot of updating/changing equipment the first couple of years I after I bought my Glasair. I updated the panel to Skyview in 2010 and a couple years later added VP-X. I wasn't happy with the radio/intercom so I updated that a couple of years ago. With each change it is next to impossible...

    VP-X Starter Switch Problem

    What would be the proper way of wiring it?

    VP-X Starter Switch Problem

    You're right Jake. I check my AS-BUILT schematic. J2-11 is connected to the starter side of the contactor and the VP-X starter warning is just a EMS WIDGET_INFO that looks like a contact. Might be worth looking at but my starter button light is a separate circuit that gets power from VP-X. It is...

    VP-X Starter Switch Problem

    I posted this on the VP forum but repeat it here as it could be a Skyview problem. I have my starter switch wired to VP-X Pro J10-1 pin so that the starter button lights up when the starter switch is active. There are a few articles showing this, one on this forum I believe. This is not the...

    Matching SkyView Fuel Level to Moeller Gauge

    I'm assuming SV and the gauge are using the same sender. When you calibrated was the gauge showing the same as what you were adding? If it's a problem you needed sorted out, it's probably worth re calibrating and keeping track of what the gauge is showing. Especially if the tank in not a regular...

    Next system software release

    HITS. Does that just work with IFR approaches or are we going to see HITS any time the flight director is activated?

    Altitude Hold

    I use the ALT HOLD only for the same reasons you do. I chose Expert mode at the time Dynon offered the option just because of the ALT HOLD only was missing from Simplified Controls. Expert mode is not all that difficult to use considering all the extra options. To take a tour in ALT HOLD mode...

    Possible pitot system blockage

    Disable the one with the airspeed problem and the other one will take over. The remaining ADAHRS won't use the 495 unless it's the only GPS source.
