    Skyview Connected as Transponder Altitude Encoder

    This configuration is in the installation manual. Check there for exact settings. From memory any Skyview serial port out set to Icarus. This goes to an available serial (RS 232) port in on the GTX 327. Set baud rate on the Dynon to the same as is on the 327. Even 1200 will work fine but they do...

    Can Skyview send ADS-B to my GTN650?

    That update limiting data transfer in Garmin certified navigators does apply. Garmin does not want uncertified devices sending information in to their certified navigators. If your 650 is run through the ARINC adapter into the Skyview, any changes made on the 650 will flow to the Skyview which...

    Contact Setup for Canopy

    Dynon will send it to you if you email them through Support. I have attached it to this post. Mine is set for 1900 RPM as mentioned but it is just a text file so you can make it a different value if you choose by editing the file in any text editor. I put the value on the file name as a reminder.

    Syncing Flight plan build between SkyView and Garmin GPS

    I have a feature request in to do exactly what you are asking. I consider it a safety addition as well. I started a new thread describing it "Feature request: Copy flight plan". Take a look and if you think it meets your needs let Dynon know in the thread. If others read it and agree, we could...

    New feature request: Copy flight plan

    I have a certified WAAS IFR navigation receiver used with my Skyview system. The flight plan loaded in that unit flows over ARINC and is shown as a tab on the Skyview flight plans page. Like most modern navigation units it can load routes utilizing T routes, Jet airways, Victor routes, SIDs...

    Syncing Flight plan build between SkyView and Garmin GPS

    If your GNC 355 is connected through the ARINC interface you will have two tabs shown in the Flight Plan. The flight plans are independent of each other and the Skyview will fly either one. You direct which one is flown by choosing it with HSI Source on the PFD. The box to the right of the HSI...

    Contact Setup for Canopy

    You may want to consider adding the Canopy.dfg file to your system for that switch. I did that for mine. That allows you to have the canopy open a bit for taxi in the summer. The warning indication on the Skyview will show open (red in my case) but no warning audio will sound. If my RPM exceeds...

    Mode S "N" number not pinging. Says I'm Russian?

    You might want to try putting your N number in the "Tail" field. You have it in the "Flight ID" but not in tail. On some of the test sets, Flight ID is a callsign which can change whereas the tail number does not. Pretty simple to give it a try.

    Bearing needle?...

    Rotating course does not matter on localizer/ILS but will on VOR. If you center the needle in flight on the SL30, do you get the needle on the Dynon?

    Bearing needle?...

    No signal is shown and the aircraft is on the ground. Since it is a localizer, you would need to have the aircraft in the beam which is quite narrow and aligned with the runway. Try switching to VOR mode. If you can receive the VOR on the ground at your field you will be able to see the bearing...

    VAL NAV 2000 + Dynon Skyview

    Calling Dynon Support would yield the definitive answer but it seems to be a serial only connection. As such, it would be sent to an available serial input on the control harness. It may even use the Garmin SL30 control protocol so you would select that as the connection type and set the baud...

    VAL NAV 2000 + Dynon Skyview

    It is shown on the picture above immediately to the right of the HSI. The glideslope is green matching the localizer needle.

    VNAV

    I believe in VNAV mode it will continue through the MDA minimums you set so as to maintain a stable approach for you as you disconnect when you see the runway. The Go Around will be armed when VNAV is active so if you so not see the runway environment at minimums, you would activate the Go...

    Wiring connections

    You do not want to attach both Dynon screens to a single sensor. All the sensors should go to a single EMS module. The EMS module will connect to both screens through the Dynon network connection.

    VNAV

    If the vertical mode is VNAV it should continue to descend while warning you as you pass the minimums you set. In IAS Hold or Vertical Speed it will level off. Your final segment in the example above will be flown in VNAV.

    Direct To User Waypoint

    You should be able to enter it manually. That is what I do. Check the list of User Waypoints to see if all the ones you entered are there. Any chance you did not save the point you created initially? It needs to be saved and that is the time to name it something you remember. I recommend not...

    VNAV

    You can make the Classic (I have these just like you) do the entire approach on autopilot. Start in NAV mode and ALT hold. When you are level inbound to the first fix, set the next fix altitude restriction. When you reach the fix, use either Vertical Speed (500-700 FPM down) or IAS Hold mode to...

    Direct To User Waypoint

    Go to the Dynon flight plan, put cursor on your current point, select Insert Waypoint, move the point to the appropriate position, insert the point into the flight plan, then hit Direct.

    VNAV

    That feature is coming for the HDX systems in a firmware update. My understanding is they are trying to make it the next one coming out. I am told the Classic and Touch will not get it due to lack of processor speed.

    Rv6 fuel level calibration max at 14 gallons

    A gap of 6 gallons is excessive and likely your float is not reaching the top of the fuel tank when full. I normally see 2 or 3 gallons difference between maximum indicated and full when installing Skyview systems in RV's. While you could verify the float arm is bent correctly according to the...
