With the circuit you provided you want to install a diode.  With the door switch open you are basically feeding the EMS input with 12V through the relay coil.  The diode will provide isolation / very high impedance from this. With the diode installed the EMS signal will "Pull-up" to the 5 volts...

This is the reply I got from Seattle Avionics's Steve Podradchik: "Hi Kurt. Yes we just became aware of this and have already fixed it for the next release. We did test the Dynon support before release but a change was made after the test that, unexpectedly, caused the problem. Love to get you...

I normally would not use this forum for this problem but in case I am not the only Skyview driver that is using Seattle Fly-Q. I would recommend that you DO NOT UPDATE TO VERSION 3.0 I updated to FLY Q EFB 3.0 and flew with it for the 1st time. It will lock up or abort immediately when it...

Thank you all for the information! Ill give them a try. Kurt

Has anyone had any luck with any Android App (Samsung tablet) that will connect and display traffic and weather from the SV? I am currently using the NAVIATOR app but I am unable to get any traffic or weather via wi-fi connection. I have e-mailed Naviator a couple times and they have never...

Either have a VP-X fault or a Custom Engine parameter is out of range. You may be able to get more info from your alert log. Check the SV Pilot User Guide, last section.

Select the "Front side" course with the CRS knob. This is one of the functions of the LH SV knob "CRS" . Select CRS with the LH knob and rotate until correct course is on the arrow head. You set the inbound course after you select and load the desired approach. Press the OBS button on 430 to...

I dont know for sure but I know that DPSK in a communication system means Differential Phase Shift Keying. This is a modulation technique that is used in digital transmitters / receivers. I suspect if you are getting this error you will have to contact DYNON and most likely send it back for...

It is possible to adjust the C0 term in the calibration to shift the offset but I would not recommend this. Unless you have the ability to perform a sensor calibration to check the other terms, this is a 3rd order polynomial you will be getting bad data. Is the sensor output repeatable. Bad...

The numbers you show "Raw" is the raw count 12 bit system = 0 to 4095 counts, Volts is the equivalent voltage @ (0.00122V/count) and the Value is with the calibration coefficients applied (EU's or Engineering Units, PSI).  Based on these numbers it looks like your sensor is bad.  To verify, you...

Anna, Looking at your engine gauges i noticed the Manifold pressure reading 2.6 inHg, Oil pressure and Temp "X"ed out. even if you are on Dynon internal battery you should see real data on these. Is this a flying aircraft? Has this ever worked? Has the EMS been fully configured? You may...

The AMP input is a differential amplifier input.  So, if you short those two wires together (C37 P24/25) this will force the input to 0 volts.  The SV should display 0 Amps with two wires shorted together.  If not then the EMS is bad.  If it displays 0 Amps then you have something miss-wired...

Check the following posting. It looks like you are experiencing the same thing I experienced when I had a regulator failure. See post #9 for a schematic to help protect against this. But anytime you connect the shunt between alternator and circuit breaker you may expose the shunt / EMS to...

Savvy Analysis or you can use Microsoft Excel or DatPlot available on SFTE.ORG (Society of Flight Test Engineers) web sight Kurt

Good to hear you figured it out. You may want to use a Arduino LM35 temp sensor. They output a linear Temp to V ( 10mV/degree C) making you calibration much easier. You can find these for about $10 and already on a board with leads. Works with 4 to 20VDC excitation.

I haven't check your calibration data but just looking at the fact you are capped at 36 ( 37 C = 100F) is it possible you have your cal in Degrees F, but your user preference is in Degrees C? check you user config file. units_temp_oat=UNITS_TEMP_F units_temp_other=UNITS_TEMP_F

CGameProgrammer, What kinda plane is this - Metal or Composite? If it is metal you should make sure your Mic and Headset jacks are isolated from airframe ground. They make nylon washers that keep the Mic and headset ground from contacting the airframe ground. If you do not have these you can...

Connect your circuit as I have attached, with the diode and contact input connected to the "I" terminal.  Configure the contact levels as 0 to 3.0 V = Starter not engaged.  3.1 V to 5.0 = Starter Engaged. The diode should be a 1N4004, 1N4005, or 1N4006.  Any will do, whichever you can get...

Just another thought regarding this. If you are trying to determine if the starter relay sticks you need to connect your contact input on the big wire between the relay and the starter (load side or contactor). If you are connecting this to the control / coil wires it will only show if the key...

Try setting your Ranges to: Range 1: enable yes, name ENGD, color white, top 5.0 volts, bottom to 3.0 Volts. Range 2: enable yes, name nothing, color black, top 3.0 volts, bottom 0.0 volt The "Pull Up" in skyview is keeping in the high state. You may need to add a diode in series with the...
