Lengthening the wires on the SV-GPS-2020 wouldn't be an issue. It's a self-contained receiver/antenna combo and nothing would be degraded by lengthening them. Having the SV-GPS-2020 externally mounted is probably the best advice we could give for troubleshooting this. But you might get in touch...
Make sure you're looking at the latest version of the manual. Here's the relevant excerpt from those pages:
Contacts Used for Retractable / Amphibious Landing Gear and Related Alerts
The simplest method to monitor landing gear state is to use a contact as there are only two states to monitor...
1. The easiest way to do this is to use an open/ground contact. An open connection will look like 5V to SkyView. Grounding it will look like zero. The manual has steps for recreating this sort of a contact.
2. Yes. See page 7-70 and 7-71 in the install manual for details on these settings.

Check the settings against those in the install manual. Are there are separate set of wires coming into the ARINC module for the NAV radio side? Are the ARINC settings on SkyView as specified? Are you changing the nav source over to the radio side of things on SkyView (if you're not using the...
So in that case, we're following roll guidance that the GTN is generating. In other words, the GTN is commanding the aircraft pretty directly. What are your roll limits set to?
It should follow the CDI, as you say. Any chance you can get a picture or video of the behavior as it emerges, ideally showing both the PFD and HSI pages, and send them to support at dynonavionics dot com?
I don't believe there is a way to switch it without the display. Give our support team a call at 425-402-0433 or an email at support at dynonavionics dot com for help with this.
There's some special hardcoding there, so function needs to be canopy, sensor contact. The name should also be canopy. The setting must be exactly as specified, ie "canopy_warn_rpm=XXXX". You can only have one canopy contact in the system.
It's a possibility. It could also be something else in the fuel system. I can't say we've heard of them failing in this way with any real frequency though.
The fact that you got such a high IAS immediately after starting the takeoff run makes me wonder if there's any odd pitot or static behavior. Is the pitot well out of the propwash? Are the static ports in known good places for the airframe? Does altitude behave normally when you start climbing?
There aren't ambient temperature limits that would affect this. But to be clear, you want a draftless environment, but you also don't want to seal off pitot or static in any way that would allow pressure to be stored in any of the lines.
Do pop off the pitot and static lines to make sure nothing is going on there. If that doesn't change things, we'll probably need to see the unit. In that case, give our support team a call at 425-402-0433 or support at dynonavionics dot com for further help.
Yes, there is a diagnostic log capability. Please give our support team an email or call at 425-402-0433 or at support at dynonavionics dot com so that we can help you further with figuring out what is going on here.
One thing to try. Once power has been applied, but the system is not powered on - try performing a hard reset of the display by pressing buttons 1/2/5 simultaneously. Does that boot it up?
They're available but are backordered at times as we get back up to speed after having an outage for a while over the last year (the product had a problem that we needed to solve with some engineering - it created a backlog). I think we may not have reactivated it on our online store. Give our...
