    Dynon 180 altitude error

    What makes you think this is the D180's issue? Altitude in ADS-B comes from GPS as well, which is internal to the Skyguard. Have you sent your report to Skyguard and asked them what the root cause of the issue is? Are you using the Dynon altitude encoder converter, with 15 wires hooked to the...

    Turbine N1 and N2

    Depending on your RPM, the sensor output from the turbine, and if you want it displayed as RPM or %, it doesn't "just work" but can generally be made to by manually editing the config file.

    External Dimmer Question

    I just tried this on a 15.1 system. The values are linearly interpolated between points. It doesn't only change at the points you have defined. A few things that might make it feel that way though: 1) It samples at 1Hz, so it only updates the brightness once a second. Move the knob too fast...

    Looking for feedback on Skyview and audio options

    I don't think anyone is discussing using the Dynon COM without SkyView. Just using two COMs in a plane with a SkyView. SkyView can talk to two COM units at once so the TWR, ATIS, GND, ATC buttons work on both.

    VAL INS-429 Connection

    The install manual claims to be SL-30 compatible, so that's what you'd use on the SkyView serial port. We haven't tried one though.

    Map North Up - Plane symbol centered- wasted space

    Any examples of other systems working the way you would like with north up? It's always helpful to see how others do it in considering how we'd do it on SkyView. Are you expecting it to hop and re-draw the whole map and aircraft location as you transition from 44 to 45 degrees or did you have...

    Taildragger AOA issue

    You need to do a zero airspeed calibration. Page 9-5 of the install manual.

    External Dimmer Question

    It should smoothly interpolate between those values.

    External Dimmer Question

    Are you using the default voltage curve in SkyView for an external dimmer, or did you adjust it? Is your potentiometer 0-5V, 0-12V, or ??? Is it a linear pot or a log/audio taper?

    VOR problem with GTN-650 and Skyview

    This is as designed. From page 12-8 of the install guide: So, if you have AUTO SWITCH on YES, SkyView obeys the CDI button on the GTN. The advantage to this is that if you load an ILS approach in the GTN, the GPS will give you guidance to the FAF, and then will auto switch the HSI to the VLOC...

    uAvionix ADSB Solution

    It is not possible to build a Mode-S transponder that switches Mode to Mode-C or Mode-A, and a Mode-S must always emit your ICAO ID. These are different TSO's so you can't just write software that flops between the modes and still be compliant with the "meets the TSO" legal requirements. Also...

    CHT cooldown alarm

    Page 5-12 of the D120 install guide covers configuring shock cooling as well as turning it on and off.

    Flightdek 180 reporting lower voltage than battery

    Also, on the D180, are you reading the voltage on the EMS or on the PFD? These come in on different pins. The one the system actually runs off of is on the PFD as part of the "M,E,I" list of voltages.

    "limited" EGT and CHT temperatures

    There are two thermocouple inputs on the D37 connector as well. So an accidental connection here could cause an issue with all thermocouples. This is why checking with the D37 disconnected would be helpful.

    "limited" EGT and CHT temperatures

    The min and max graphical range won't limit the digital range. That's not the issue.

    "limited" EGT and CHT temperatures

    Alain, Given the reasonable values from your sensor debug page, it's not likely that the EMS has failed, but it will be interesting to see if that does fix it. Your limits of CHT and EGT say that the system can no longer read above 20mV. 375F on a J type is 20mV and 475F on a K type is 20mV. So...

    I need rotor RPM added to my display

    Yes, it does mean that you will lose the custom Rotax RPM ranges on the oil temp. SkyView doesn't currently support Rotax limits with dual RPM inputs if both are not for Rotax engines.

    uAvionix ADSB Solution

    The EchoUAT's ADS-B data output format is not compatible with SkyView.

    "limited" EGT and CHT temperatures

    Can you please send a screen shot of the debug screen scrolled down a bit? There's a section with a bunch of elements like "ColdJ" and "vref+" that would be helpful.

    I need rotor RPM added to my display

    You haven't answered the most important question: Did you load the .DFG from the other referenced thread? There is a file in there "dual_ff_sep_RPM.dfg" which will configure SkyView to show two RPM inputs. Once loaded, I don't see any other issues with your configuration, it should work fine...
