I installed mine last year, in the tail, just under the fiberglass fairing, at the base of the front of the vertical stab. It's furthest from any magnetic anomalies or electronic interference and the wiring length is more than enough. However, you have to run your pitot and static lines aft...

No need for another screen shot. BLUF (bottom line up front): System suffered catastrophic failure the day after software upgrade (ver 3.3) upon first boot-up Tuesday evening, March 13, 2012 when about to launch for an evening of watching the FL sun setting over the Gulf of Mexico. Called...

Software updated to 3.3. I powered up the unit, then powered up the Zaon and the top-down GPS map view continues to "x" over the bogey symbol and indicate "fail". I've checked continuity of the wire from the point where I am butt-splicing the Zaon wire to the SV wire harness (blue wire with...

WHEW! You had me worried for a moment there. Thanks for clarifying. :o Actually, the ONLY thing working on any serial port, as advertised, that's integrated with the SV-1000 is the Dynon GPS. Neither the Garmin SL-30, nor the Garmin 496 Nav info shows up. My main concern is traffic...

Hold the presses! Are you saying that if I connect the Zaon XRX (TX wire) to Serial Port 4 (RX), the TX counter in the SV-1000 will advance?  Wouldn't the TX in the SV-1000 account for signals it is transmitting OUT?  :-? According to Document 101320[ch8208]006, Revision G, page 16-6, Table...

Update: Conducted a continuity check on circuit #9 of the SV-1000 harness, also known as the blue wire with the violet stripe for Serial Input Channel #4 and it comes up good. Re-installed and powered up everything. The little icon indicating a failure of traffic warning still lights up, I...

No, I have not gone that route, not expecting there to be a QA issue with the wiring harness. However, with three separate pieces of hardware: GPS-496 ZAON XRX SL-30 ...all three unable to integrate with the SV-1000, I am beginning suspect the wiring harness. The SV-1000 was sent back for some...

I have to add that having "TCAS" is particularly useful in my area since our private airpark is surrounded by MOAs and Restricted airspace. We often get MH-60s and F/A-18s conducting low passes around us and having TCAS is not just a nice-to-have tool. The "lawn-darts" move fast :o and if I...

Zaon is wired correctly.  Checked once, twice, thrice, and again a fourth time.  I even changed the physical connection to another serial channel, Serial Port 4 (blue wire with violet stripe) RX channel, on the SV-1000. Yes, Zaon is set to "Garmin".  Traffic comes up on the Garmin 496, so that...

Still no joy! See picture attached, showing my settings for the Zaon.

BUMP to top. Still no resolution. Changed to Serial Port 4 (blue wire with violet stripe) RX channel. Still no joy! Garmin 496 is getting signal, SV-1000 is not. Please assist. Taking bird for a 3000 mile trip this weekend and would have liked to have had this resolved by now. R/

Tech support did, in fact, return my call very quickly! Problem too complex to handle over the phone, therefore an RMA was issued. To be continued...(hopefully with positive ending). ;)

Finally got the SV-1000 up, started loading the firmware v3.2, but the the console crashed while doing the network update. I fails to come up, whether on ship's battery power, or an external 12v DC power supply. There is no b/u battery (fyi for understanding configuration). I'm down to...

Dynon Support, any thoughts?

In awe over the beautiful wx in North Central Florida this morning, with confidence in my wonderfully running SV1000, I powered up and started taxiing down the well-manucured grass runway for a departure in the opposite direction.  I turned around to begin my runup and behold, my SV1000 was dark...

Sadly, no. I bought a Becker Mode-S transponder to replace my Microair Mode-C...only to learn two months later that your transponder was available. Yeah, bummer. Okay, so I have my GPS-496 on port 1, SL-30 NAV/COM on port 2 and the Zaon on port 3 (green wire with purple stripe). In the port...

You see...THAT is why you guys get paid the big bucks! AND, that is why I have no problem paying for a good product...GOOD product support! I'll double/triple/quadriple check the probes. All I know is that I am almost certain that they are J-type thermocouplers, BUT...I'll check and get back...

Port 3 function definition set to Zaon XRX: Check. Port 3 green wire with violet stripe (SV-RX) hooked to data-out from Zaon: Check Data-out from Zaon hooked to GPS-496 (yellow wire data-in): Check SV TIS: FAIL GPS-496: Successful

Wire harness from Dynon is labeled and installed correctly. EGTs are hooked up to EGT leads from Dynon harness. CHTs are hooked up to CHT leads from Dynon harness. CHTs/EGTs are thermocoupler J-Type/K-type, respectively. Not purchased from Dynon, but were perfectly fine with BMA and was told...

Re: Westach Tach/Oil/Fuel Tranducers - UPDATE Okay, I ordered the Dynon 25-pin wire harness and hooked directly to the CHT thermocouple wires coming through the firewall. After a 20-minute runup, the CHTs were STILL reading only about 84 degrees F. Which wire of the harness (Red/Yellow/White)...
