    GPS failover

    So I just tore my panel apart for paint last night before I tried it. It isn't a real big deal to plug everything back in and try it, so I will tomorrow night. Like you said I have a 696, a GX60, and a Dynon gps all in the system. I'll try them all tomorrow night and let you know. -Mike Kraus

    Seperate power switch

    I too have my SkyViews on seperate switches. I also added a switch for the autopilot, so I can shut power down to the servos. Just in case I need to.

    Rebooting

    Dynon, You may want to look into the trim system wiring. It looks like a shorted trim input can bring down the system. Maybe all shorts can? It just happened to me by mistake so it may be worth looking in to. -Mike

    Digital transponder compatability

    I have hooked up my SL70 and I am getting density altitude showing up on the SL70 once the SkyView is booted, so they are communicating. I have the SL70 hooked up on serial #1 and the serial 1 TX on the SkyView needs to be set to 'Dynon Converter'. Make sure both baud rates match and you...

    Rebooting

    Make sure you have the flap sensors wired correctly and no shorts. When I was installing my flap sensor, I had wired the roll and pitch trim at the same time. The roll trim wire was disconnected as the wings are not installed. When I powered up, the EMS went literally crazy and all the...

    USB connector on main wiring harness

    There is the wired USB and 2 USB ports on the back of the SkyView. Any can be used for updates. The USB wire does not have any panel mounting capabilities, therefore I actually removed mine and purchased a panel mount version that I plugged into one of the hard ports on the back. I believe...

    EMS Sensor Bug?

    So I am setting my parameters on my EMS sensors for pitot heat. I was setting it for 0-5 volts it shows black, then 5-20 volts it shows red. The default screen said 0.0-30.0. Once I set it to 0.0-5.0, I lost the first numeric digit, and now I can't change the voltage to anything over 9.9...

    GPS install?

    So what about other devices, like the SL30? With two displays, and when full functionallity is available, would we hook both the SkyView TX wires to the RX on the SL30? If so, then only one SkyView would Be able to TX at a time or there would be this collision. My thought would be that only...

    GPS install?

    So how will the dual systems operate then? I thought the master display would be the only system transmitting data, and the slave would not transmit data. Then if the master fails, the slave would become master and start transmitting data. Kinda like the backup ADHARS. It sits there until...

    Floscan 201B Wiring

    I'm trying to wire up my floscan 201. The wiring schematic says to use pin 14 (input 1), pin 15 (+12v), pin 19 (input2). On my floscan, the wiring is red=+12v, black=ground, and white=signal. I'm guessing pin 15=red, but how do I hook up the other 2 wires? Black to ground and white to...

    ADAHRS mounting

    Thanks for the post. I too have SS bolts mounting my dual ADHARS. I am not in a position to calibrate yet, but had a question. It you boot up the system and wave your SS bolts near the ADHARS, does the heading change? I had 6 extra SS bolts like I used, I did this test and the heading was...

    Lightspeed tach hookup? (and ems settings typo)

    Re: Lightspeed tach hookup? (and ems settings typo I'm looking at the Rev A manual, pages 6-4 and 6-10. Both show pins 32 and 33 for STD hook up, and pins 34 and 35 for low voltage inputs (ie Lightspeed). I have an IO540 with a left mag and right Lightspeed. I hooked up the mag inputs into...
