Glacially, as in progress is being made but it seems undetectable.

Sensor is attached on the injection spider, exactly as if it were a Comanche twin (IO-320). Phantom, There is a problem with using the port on the flow divider. It normally has a small G stamped there. A friend installed a D120 in a Pitts and used the same port. He had the same problems you...

The fact that it correctly answers FAA requirements meets the needs I was concerned with. Fortunately, my kit already has a squat switch. I will just need to add another function.

In that same vein, while I know you do not have release details are you planning the VHF radios to also be remote such that all controls and frequency display will be through the Skyview?

What is the function of the squat switch? If this is what starts the transmission in air mode, I have a question. Larger airports with ASDE-X ground radar require transponders active with altitude reporting for all aircraft taxiing. Does the transponder send out the appropriate signal without...

Planning on a Skyview now but it sounds like the system is going to have to get the time from the 396 since he said above no time output from the 480 or any unit in aviation mode.

When the new Dynon transponder is released, will it eventually be able to interface with the D180 or will it only work with Skyview?

I should have asked if this applied to the Skyview. Thanks for the clarification. Nice to know both the battery and 396 will make sure the clock is correct.

So, can I get time from a 396 (not sure if that is aviation output) or only through the Dynon GPS puck? If the 396 will not output time, will the Keep Alive function of the Skyview be repaired so the system will keep time between flights saving resetting the clock at each power up?

Does the 480 output time?

Would it be acceptable to route the Skyview audio output to an unused input on the audio panel? I was planning to roue mine to the ADF or DME input on a KMA 24. This would give me the ability to select when to listen to audio from the Skyview but give me the option to not listen. I see there is...

I know the transponder is not out yet but I was trying to do a little planning. Will the new Dynon transponder work with the legacy units (D180 etc) or only the Skyview series?

I believe the D100 and D180 have a split system in that the attitude reference is inside the instrument so they do have experience with it. Both of those units are still sold and supported so it may not be a huge amount of design to alter the Skyview. The two modules (attitude & heading) could...

Can we expect that it will be in the future? I consider it much safer as I do not need a conductor with a direct connection to the high power of both the battery and alternator. I had hoped to use them with my D1000.

Russ, The 327 serial In will just need to be connected to one of the EFIS serial Out lines. It will take the altitude information from the data stream. I believe the 327 will be set to Icarus but someone who has done this should be along to confirm this shortly. In any case, you do not need a...

Fair enough! My method would have been effective but yours is much more thorough and a better choice down the road.

If the keep alive is fused the easy solution is simply to remove the fuse. Just make sure to make a note on your wiring diagrams that the fuse is removed and that there is no power on that line.

But it sure beats the alternative!

I know I can buy a fuel flow transducer to add to the EMS with the sensor kit. I have a transducer from a Shadin Digiflow system. Can I use that? Will I need to build a sensor file or will the Skyview know what it is?

I do not have the manuals for the D100 but the procedure seems wrong. Is he supposed to wait until accelerating back to 100 knots before pressing finish? It just seems the exact sequence of events might be a problem here.
