    Same here, no joy.

    Starter / master switch

    Why not use a standard master and a pushbutton switch for the starter?

    Screen reboots constantly

    Dynon - any news on this? I have received no contact from anyone at tech support.

    Second EFIS will not wake up

    What software version? I have a pair of 10" screens, and previous to 14.0 I had no problems at all with them - but since loading 14.0 my right hand screen reboots after about 30 seconds of normal display, continuously in a loop.

    Screen reboots constantly

    I have a dual-SV-10" with software 14.0, just prior to first flight doing taxi testing in my 9A. Today my second (right side) screen started something new - it boots completely and comes up with it's normal screen, stays that way about 30-40 seconds, and then reboots. The reboot starts all the...

    More GPS 2020 Questions

    Pretty much, yes. I have a 430W in my 9A and had it connected to the transponder for the certified GPS location, and then last night I installed the GPS 2020 and simply changed the position source in the transponder menu and it works fine.

    Installing GPS-2020

    I received my GPS 2020 on Friday and installed it today, spliced the wires about 8" from the GPS puck and everything works great. Life is good! This is with my antenna in the FWF area looking up through my fiberglass cowl, inside a closed hangar. No problem getting a good satellite lock.

    News: SV-GPS-2020 Shipping & SkyView 14.0 Released

    With the GPS-250 original receiver, I believe that is correct.

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    I can't disagree entirely, though I would love to see some competition in the market. I was quite happy being able to link the 430W to my autopilot via the Dynon Airinc box, and it does give me a fully capable IFR receiver that is immune to a software problem in the Dynon. Developing a certified...

    Switching calibration sets?

    That's a good idea, I'll consider that. I just received my airworthiness certificate yesterday afternoon, and first flight is still a few weeks away, so I'm realistically a couple months from recalibrating for both fuels. I'll respond back to this thread when I've got it figured out if nobody...

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    I tried it yesterday morning, it did not work for me - but it downloaded just fine this morning.

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    I installed the ARINC-429 interface in mine and put a Garmin 430W in the panel connected to the ARINC box, that will allow me to couple the autopilot to the VNAV coming from the certified Garmin receiver. You'll need some form of certified GPS receiver that will output to the ARINC device to be...

    What CAN you do with autopilot and no certifiedGPS

    It is a little crazy, but you'll need a "certified" receiver to give vertical navigation information to the autopilot and have it follow that. This goes for both ILS and GPS VNAV. Without a certified receiver, I believe you can still see it on the screen, but the autopilot won't couple to it...

    Heated pitot installation question

    I cut my aluminum tube short enough that it doesn't need to bend, and made the switch to plastic tubing there. Make sure you leave several inches of aluminum to dissipate the heat from the heated pitot though, so it won't soften the plastic. I would advise to measure it carefully and cut it...

    Trim potentiometer problem

    To close the circle on this for Dynon Support - I was able to diagnose a double failure, both a potentiometer problem in the trim servo and a bad wire crimp at the EMS for the 5V power to the potentiometer. I needed to know what the pullup resistance was to make sense of the readings I was...

    Trim potentiometer problem

    (sigh)... I guess the impedance of your EMS voltage inputs is a state secret or something, since I've clearly stated my question twice and you've still not answered it.

    Trim potentiometer problem

    Your instruction in the manual were actually just fine, and I have it installed as it needs to be. The problem I'm seeing is that I am getting erratic readings on the Skyview trim widget from the potentiometer wiper. They wiper voltage does indeed vary as it should, but it has about 11k-ohm of...

    Trim potentiometer problem

    I'm trying to diagnose a problem I'm having with my elevator trim position indicator, I'm using a Ray Allen servo and feeding +5 volts and ground to the potentiometer on the servo, and returning the wiper signal back to the EMS. I've pulled the servo apart and confirmed that it's working...
