Very true. Mine is a new HDX but I used a harness that we had hanging around because it was never used. Obviously from a time before they removed it :) I'm surprised it doesn't work because everything has been done properly but I'm not concerned about it. A short lead from the back of the HDX...

We did it recently on my aircraft but it does not seem to work. I plug exactly the same dongle into the D37 USB port and on the back of the HDX but it'll read the one on the back of the unit but not the D37. Maybe they changed the software when the option was removed.

I write, not as any sort of expert, but as someone who had the same thing happen very recently on a brand new HDX. I'd spent some time setting up the various screens etc and had been on battery power, that was being trickle charged as I played. Lithium battery, so very low amp battery charger...

@Rhino. Excellent! Thank you very much for your pointers and especially your final diagram. I think the use of resistors will be a lot easier than the relays. From vLittle's comment, I gather using 20K resistors from the sensor would be better for multiple inputs. I will have 3 x 12v inputs...

I apologise for returning to this subject but just wanted to double-triple check my understanding is correct and that it is safe to input a 12v voltage into the EMS D37 as per the drawing below. The input would be used as a 'Contact' input to display a red light when triggered by the input...

Oh, now that I like :) Admittedly that's what my MGL autopilot does (one press to engage, one to disengage) but I'll be happy if that can all be done using one button with the Dynon system. Thanks very much for pointing that one out to me 👍

Yep, understand all of that, Carl, but I have manual trim and have used the HDX with and without the Knob Panel and AP Panel. I am quite happy to have just the HDX installed in my panel and nothing else. At 90kts in a EuroFOX I have little use for many, or speedy, mode changes and will leave...

More planning ahead :) I would like to keep my panel incredibly clean and will be using the knobs on the HDX to control the autopilot. It's okay, I have tried the options but am very confident I can do what I want to do my using the inbuilt capabilities. I would like to avoid installing a LEVEL...

Thank you one and all for your replies. I thought the servos might be a 'no' because the signals from the MGL CAN bus are probably just a different collection of 1 and 0 to make the servo do the same thing. It's a shame because they're the same size etc, so it would have just been nice to keep...

It's a plan that's been jiggling around in the back of my head for some time but the same plan seems to come to the fore more often of late. The plan is to move from my current MGL iEFIS Explorer Lite to Dynon HDX. For obvious reasons I would like to limit the changes in infrastructure and...

Thanks Airguy. I had seen the tables in my research but didn't want to pre-empt anything. As I understand it, I can input those 12v on/off sources to any of the Enhanced General Purpose inputs (C & blue in the table). Although receiving 12v the EMS records them as 5v. I then set up a widget to...

My searches have helped educate me a little but I just wanted to confirm what I think I know by asking the question, without suggesting an answer.......this is my way of saying I have done some research :) I have two, separate, units that 'produce' 12V output when triggered. One is a low fuel...

It is perfectly feasible to run Pilot Aware to the Dynon SkyView and it has been done before. If you search the Pilot Aware Forum you can see that it is really quite a simple thing to do.

Thanks Ray. I managed to talk to Trig, yesterday, who basically said the same thing. It seems Trig make the kit for Dynon but Dynon use a different protocol for communicating between the EFIS and radio. Apparently you are able to have the Trig radio with its control head in the panel AND connect...

Thanks HFMan for the steer. I looked into the firmware version (11) where support for the radio was announced but there's not a great deal of detail. I'm very grateful that you managed to find an indication that the TY91 will work with SkyView but it would be great to hear if anyone can point to...

Hello knowledgable people. I'm looking at various kit to be installed in an RV7 but need an answer regarding the radio. Basically we'd prefer to use a remote-mounted transponder (Trig TT21) and radio (Trig TY91) with a SkyView Classic EFIS. I know the transponder can be used (because a friend of...

Thank you for the unequivocal answer :)

Thanks Kelly. I would hate for him to continue with the Trutrack installation (i.e. use the servos and panel controller) and lose the functionality of the SkyView but, then again, it does seem a bit daft buying a couple of Dynon servos when you already have two.

Hi, A friend of mine is finishing off the building of an RV7 kit that has been sitting around for a while. The RV is in great condition and, luckily, the panel has not yet been started. The wing has already had a Trutrack DSP B Digital Servo installed and the pitch servo is ready to be...

Thanks for your thought, Garrett. I believe these things are the type of device you're talking about. As fas as I can see they measure the head of fuel (pressure) and then output a signal between 0-5V accordingly. If access to the tank is possible that will certainly be the way to go. If not...
