    SV-ARINC-429 Help

    Sorry for a bit of bad information before- but the 430 CANNOT have two output set to the same format. If you need AVIATION to go to two devices, you have to split the wire.

    Transponder fail during firmware update

    The transponder is powered direct by the aircraft bus. SkyView can't prevent it from being turned off. SkyView itself will not turn off during an upgrade if it has a backup battery.

    SV-ARINC-429 Help

    1.) SkyView is only receiving information from the GPS 430 on RS232, that is why we have the Chan X (1 or 2) OUTPUT set to: Aviation and no mention of the INPUT. 2.) The Garmin 430 should be able to have 2 OUTPUTS set to Aviation. If the Garmin 430 is wired and configured per Fig. 153 on pg...

    Transponder fail during firmware update

    Yes,  if this happens unfortunately there is no way to reset the transponder while in the airplane. You need to send it back to be reset. If you are in France, please contact FinesseMax. We will contact them and see if we can set them up to perform the reset.

    RV-6 pitch servo over center

    The dimensions shown on the installation guide are a starting point, but every airplane can be different. You should extend the pushrod so that over-center cannot occur.

    Directional traffic audio alerts

    Louis, Thanks for the input. We'll add it to the list. As a note, the TRAFFIC alert is given at least 20 seconds before a collision is possible, so you do have quite a bit of time to resolve it.

    D10A blank display with temperature of 1 degree F

    Valerie, The D10A is tested operationally down to -30C, and should work down there. The only issue can be that the screen is dimmer when starting at those temperatures, and can take some time to warm up. I don't have a solid answer for you on exactly what temp full brightness can be expected...

    Updating to v15.0.3

    You can plug in the USB drive anytime. It does not need to be present at boot.

    Updating to v15.0.3

    If the place you are plugging in the stick works for databases, it should work for firmware. It is important to make sure only one USB stick is plugged in at a time, but it sounds like you already have that. All we can suggest is to make sure the file is actually on that USB stick. It needs to...

    HDX Screen Layout

    No, there is no 20% window in HDX. The bottom engine display replaces most of the need for it, and helps keep the user interface more straightforward.

    Trim Switch

    Even more, unless your emergency switch disconnects the trim from the SV-AP-PANEL, you're actually shorting out things with that backup switch. The outputs of the SV-AP-PANEL are not "open" when not running the motor, they are connected to ground. This is common with many electronic motor...

    No Amps Showing on Skyview Screen

    Either is fine and won't smoke anything. But I meant between the two leads ;)

    No Amps Showing on Skyview Screen

    Your screenshot shows zero, but your engine is not running, and from what we gather, your shunt is on the alternator output? So zero is expected here. Everything looks fine in the screen shots. A quick test is to take one of the EMS wires off the shunt. This should cause huge readings on the...

    Inaccurate wind information and heading.

    Given that you describe that it works sometimes, and not others, this sounds like your compass is accurate at times, and not at others. Generally if this happens it's due to aircraft configuration, either mechanical or electrical. Your best bet is to park the plane on the ground, and move...

    EMS General Purpose Pin 9 and Canopy Contact

    The light you have must be something like an LED? The EMS will look like about a 6K ohm resistor to ground if you put 12V on the pin, which won't show up at all on an incandescent bulb. Three options: 1) Use a diode on the wire to the EMS. Point the cathode (ground band) of the diode away from...

    SV-AP-Panel missing on network

    Did you do a network configuration and it was not recognized in there? If that's true, try plugging just the AP panel into the screen using the test cable that comes with the system and doing a config to make sure nothing else is interfering. You don't need to cal the AP first to see the AP...
