    Seeking Alternative Manifold Pressure Sensor

    The Klavico P4055 should work if it is the correct options. Part number should be P4055-30A-E-xy. x and y are the pressure connection and y is the electrical connection. Both are dependent on the builders installation preference. The key options are Absolute pressure, and 30 PSI (~2 BAR)...

    Does not show battery charge current

    Yes, it is possible for just that part of circuitry to fail. The alternator amp reading is using a differential amplifier circuit. It is measuring the voltage across the shunt (two inputs). This is a different circuit from the other “single ended” inputs. I think Dynon told me it could...

    Fluctuating Tacho Reading

    If your prop was setting at the zero degree point it will sometimes jump between 0 and 359 degrees. when it does this it sends out a tach pulse. it is just an artifact of the position sensor resolution/ accuracy. You can replicate this when setting your timing and the LED is Yellow. Not...

    Not getting Lightning Data from SV-ADSB-472 on ForeFlight

    Thanks for the reply - I saw several comments that people were seeing lightning data on ForeFlight when connected to SkyView SV-ADSB-472. But I agree, SV is not passing that data via WiFi. At least not at this time.

    SV D1000 Classic joystick use in turbulence

    If you have a classic SV system and when in turbulence, accidently move the joystick when you wanted to just turn the knob then this modification may help you. I took some 3/16 inch Yoga mat foam and made some bushings to make it a little harder to move the joystick functions. I used a 1/2 inch...

    Not getting Lightning Data from SV-ADSB-472 on ForeFlight

    I am not receiving any lightning data on ForeFlight when connected to my Skyview Network (SV-D1000-T , SV-ADSB-472, WiFi) running version 15.4.7. Other posts say this is working, but I don't see it. Once I connect to my home wifi it displays perfectly. What firmware revision is the latest on...

    I have a skyview 1000T w/ ADS-472 and ForeFlight. I am unable to get lightning data to display on Foreflight Tablet? It is selected. Once I land and connect to the Internet it display lightning. Never seen lightning product in flight when connected to SV WiFi. What could be wrong? Thanks, Kurt

    Skyview ADS-B weather and traffic on IFD540

    Any plans to add this capability? Sure would be a great feature. Also both have ethernet. Why not use that?

    Skyview ADS-B weather and traffic on IFD540

    Last year when I was at Oshkosh the Avidyne booth had ADS-B weather and traffic displayed on both the IFD and the Skyview. How is this done? Is it possible to use my Skview ADS-B receiver to supply weather and traffic to the IFD? Can the data move via ethernet or connect to IFD serial port?

    week gps 250 signal when both Skyview Classic Sreens are on

    I had the same issue with my Garmin 250XL. I fixed it by changing the coax going to the 250XL GPS antenna with RG-400. The Dynon SV D1000T was coupling noise onto the antenna cable. RG-400 has excellent shielding properties. This is one of the reasons this cable is required for IFR GPS...

    ARINC-429 dropouts are still a problem that has not been addressed - or even acknowledged.

    I have now been flying with the IFD540 and see the dropouts. Same as I did on the GNS430W. again only a momentary dropout where the magenta course indicator blanks out for a couple seconds. This makes me think the problem is with Skyview and/or the ARINC box. I have seen this with both the...

    Dynon and Avidyne IFD

    Right now. I dont see any better integration between Skyview to Avidyne vs. Skview to Garmin. Just basic Nav data via ARINC 429. The Avidyne WiFi can be configured as a remote device on the Skyview network, so it is conceivable data can be shared between the two. But until code is written to...

    Dynon and Avidyne IFD

    Dynon, When I was at Oshkosh, one of the Dynon employees mentioned you were planning some nice features that can be shared between SkyView and IFD? Any word on what/when it is planned? I have a few suggestions: Push flight plans between SkyView/IFD Tune Com / Nav radio. Share ADS-B products...

    ARINC-429 dropouts are still a problem that has not been addressed - or even acknowledged.

    I also am still seeing occasional ARINC dropouts with my GNS430W to Skyview Touch. Before I upgraded to Skyview I had a Sandel SN3300 EFIS. Never had a single drop in 15 years. I currently see these on occasion. They are most noticeable when on a long trip where I am on autopilot and the...

    SkyView ARINC 429 dropouts from GNS430W

    I have seen the momentary dropouts sine day one since skyview installation it has much improved since version 15 I think. That was when this problem was addressed by dynon. My previous panel had a Sandel SN3308. Never had any issues with that. Same Gns430w and antenna location.

    SkyView ARINC 429 dropouts from GNS430W

    Dynon, what is the current progress / status regarding the momentary ARINC 429 dropouts that some GNS430W-->ARINC 429-->SV flyers experience. On my way to Oshkosh I had several dropouts in quick succession which caused autopilot to auto switch out of NAV to Course mode. I spoke to some guys...

    Skyview Strange Windspeed and Wind Direction Indications

    Make sure you have the latest software if you are using the SV-GPS 250. This software fixes a GPS bug that appeared in April. This GPS issue caused a GPS course error that translated to winds aloft being way off. I also experienced this and some auto pilot tracking errors. Kurt

    GPS Change Required for ADS-B?

    If your ADS-B out (transponder) has a IFR GPS connected as the position source; like the GNS-430W, then you are good. If you are relying on the SV-GPS-250 as your ADS-B position source then you will need to upgrade. I am assuming you already have a Mode-S transponder.

    Landing Gear Inputs to EMS

    Peter, I recently configured my Skyview Touch to take advantage of the increased Landing Gear contacts. If you follow the naming conventions ("GEAR", "GEAR1", "GEAR2", or "GEAR3") and status them correctly "UP" and "DOWN", any combination of "GEAR(x)" that is "UP" when you slow below IAS set...

    GRT CS-01 current reversed

    You are correct to just change the sign's on the two coefficients as in your first reply. Just remember to save off your sensor definition file (SFG) so you can just re-load it after you do a firmware update. Kurt
