Well that‘s an important piece of info that I missed. THANK YOU! Craig

Hi DYNON (and others), I have been looking for but did not find the max amperage available on pin 29. It would be extremely convenient to power my ADSB-472 as well as my GPS 2020. Total draw is stated as 300mA for both In the HDX installation manual. Since THE ADSB-472 is useless in my...

A buddy’s RV8 is logging zero in the user log for voltage. Correct bus voltage is displayed on both screens (dual Classic system). Amperage and other values are logged normally. Other “relevant” factor is that a VP/X is in use. Any ideas would be welcome! Craig

That was my take as well Steve - you lose your only SV display, you lose GPS position updates to the transponder. It’s not a safety of flight type failure but I have a lot of serial ports on the GTN and I would like to use some of them wherever it adds value. ;) Craig

Hey Jake So am I reading this correctly? The installation you’re referencing has “other” GPS always wired to pin 3 or is it switchable in the event of loss of Dynon provided positioning? DYNON: any input from the experts?

That depends on the ELT. Many can be set to different speeds. Typical default seems to be 9600 baud. RTFM. :-) Craig’s

The SV installation manual references that if you have a Dynon GPS 2020 that you do not NEED to have a direct GPS feed to pin 3 on the transponder. (My current config) It does not address the question (I believe) of redundancy. So in the unlikely case that the SkyView HDX1100 went dark but...

You are correct, The standard and HDX cannot be mixed. I have never heard Dynon talk about a portrait EFIS.  That proves nothing of course but I get the impression they are looking to maximize the utility of their core products - hence their efforts to get certified. Trying to release too many...

Dynon, Looking at a pre-owned radio. It’s marked Mod AB. Is this current? If not, what’s the cost to make it current? Regards, Craig

True. I am a big supporter of Dynon. A real spunky company given the strength of big "G". But, one must ask who the hell is doing the beta testing for this product (and some of the software updates)? The 472 is so easy to swap for the 470 there should have been some open beta testing where...

Dear Dynon, The installation manual states that none of the Skyview outputs provide sufficient power for the 472 but the draw is only .1 Amps and the EMS D37, pin 15 puts out 12V. Is that pin insufficient for the 472? Thanks, Craig

Any update on this? Any guidance you can give re: the likely hood that any problem would be corrected via a Skyview software update versus a non software change to the 472 box? I'm installing the 472 as we speak and would love to avoid pulling it back out for an update. Thanks! Craig

Hi, I have attempted it with marginal success. The issue is that the Lightspeed outputs the values in microvolts and the Dynon inputs are not sensitive enough to accurately represent the correct value(s). This is not a knock on the Dynon, that's asking a lot for the system to be that...

Interesting, and what I would expect. It's not one, but TWO of the dimmers that are working backwards (12v at full counter clockwise). Dynon, In the post above there was no acknowledgment of the expected behavior of the Dynon dimmer. Are they supposed to provide max voltage at full...

Hi, Been on the screen to adjust the brightness vs voltage. If I understand your recommendation is to adapt to the brightness to the "backwards" dimmer by setting 100% at 0 volts as an example. That's certainly a good suggestion. I'm just really surprised at the design choice. Was it...

I can't find any reference to the behavior of the dimmer in relation to direction to turn for increasing brightness. Installed one per instructions in a buddies plane and clockwise DECREASED brightness. That is unusual. We had another dimmer and it worked the same way. We "solved" the...

15.0.2 added that capability for the 470 so either it will be supported for the 472 or it would be likely added soon.  It is transmitted via the Dynon Wi-fi dongle. Craig

Wish granted! The 472 dual band is on the way! Craig

I must be mistaken as to the type of dimmer. The switch does correctly alter the brightness of the screen and I see steady voltage levels measured on the screen for setting the external brightness control. The only issue is noise. Craig

Anyone using a TP PWM dimmer for Skyview brightness? I'm using a dual channel unit with one channel connected to pin 25 on the SV. The dimmer and the SV share a ground. I'm getting a background hum at a consistent frequency with the dimmer on and at any voltage. Off, it is silent. Anyone...
