    Skyview Boot Problem

    The next time you do get booted up, when you have this problem, check the state of charge on your Dynon back up battery. I think there has been acknowledgment that when the backup battery is low, this will happen sometimes.

    Tach Install w/ Resistors

    Craig, Here is what worked fine for me with a Lyc IO-360. Solder or butt splice a very short piece of stranded mil wire to one end of the resistor. Solder or butt splice the other end of the resistor to the DB37 wire. Put a length of shrink wrap over the whole resistor assembly, put a ring...

    Skyview Display Visability at Night

    Finally renewed my night currency after flying Skyview during the day for the last 20 hours or so. Have a 10" and 7" screen. The dimming configuration is AUTO and the knobs for that are all factory defaults. The screen is generally very readable at night except for the Flight Path Marker and...

    Pitch axis trim indicator

    Not trying to be silly, but what did the aircraft do in the pitch axis while this was going on? Did it change altitude? If you had the altitude bug set to something other than the current altitude, the aircraft would try to go to that altitude and might not have had enough "authority" without...

    GNS-430 Data on Two Skyviews Simultaneously?

    Tim, Absolutely the two SV screens can both receive the G-430 serial data at the same time. That is working fine in my A/C. Not familiar with the Approach Stack System. For this purpose though, all it has to do is connect the serial TX line from the G-430 to the serial RX lines of both of...

    GNS-430 Data on Two Skyviews Simultaneously?

    Tim, You say that "TX and RX are working". If you mean that SV to 430 TX is working, that does not sound right. The 430 serial RX should be turned off and the SV TX on both screens (for the Serial Ports connected to the 430) should be turned off. Only one screen should have serial TX even...

    Revisions to Manuals

    Dynon Support, Now we are on Rev D of the Installation Manual and Pilot's Guide. Should have brought this up before, but the manuals were going through major changes the first few times. Now they should be more stable, so here goes. What if, for Rev E. and beyond, there is a stronger way of...

    Jumpy RPM-indication

    Here is a suggestion that might cut down on chatter that keeps reporting the same issues over and over. I presume that you have a formal S/W Trouble Report system. How about letting us have access to it. Other companies do this. For example Flight Prep lets users originate trouble tickets...

    July Aviation Data

    Looked again at this. Some of the file names for the downloads SEEM to have the Skyview Firmware version as a part of the name. This includes the main firmware, the aviation and the obstacle data. All three of these have had "2.0." in the name for Skyview Version 2.0. The latest aviation...

    Skyview startup screens, interfacing with TXP/GPS

    Re: Skyview startup screens, interfacing with TXP/ The change in power down behavior that you discussed would mean that while you were flying, anytime the input power was removed, the system would immediately shut down. The backup battery would only power the system if you then turned it back...

    GPS install?

    Steve, Be sure you are always using the latest Installation Manual. The latest is Rev C. since Firmware 2.0 came out in May. In this case both manuals read the same and you are right that they do say different things on the same page for this topic. Logic brings us the right answer however...

    Jumpy RPM-indication

    I have also seen and reported this here on the forum. Only response I got back was, "hmm, haven't seen that before".

    skyview dirty rf ...testing... resolved.

    Yes, I have tried the squelch on the Garmin 430 with no affect before the filters. Haven't done it again since the filters because I thought all was good from the ground test. Will try that once more. BTW my hand held ICOM breaks squelch when the antenna is anywhere inside the cockpit (with...

    skyview dirty rf ...testing... resolved.

    Have now flown Tucson to LA since putting in the 6 L-Com filters and all the bad noise symptoms returned. The noise started immediately on takeoff and, on most frequencies used during the next two hours. it was continuous. This is most frustrating.

    July Aviation Data

    Did anyone have trouble with the new aviation data? System says the file is invalid. Loaded a new copy from the web site and it is identical to the one I tried before. Systems takes last months data just fine.

    Skyview remains off at startup

    There is no USB drive on the D37. The new 3' cable is plugged in to one of the backside USB ports. No drive on it either. I saw a black box at the top of the splash screen, but it looked like it was empty. I will look again.
