    Slingshot not connecting

    That isn't the issue, I had a fully configured thumb drive with SA charts already stored on the drive, still said Looking for device. Something got changed and pretty sure it wasn't on our side. 16.2.4 has been locked down for a couple of months and I had it working previously.

    Slingshot not connecting

    I am looking into this, I am seeing the same thing on mine and have been unable to get it to connect. It did work previously, but something has changed. My IOS was the same as was software on the SkyView, which only leaves Seattle Avionics. I have reached out to them to see if they could help...

    Fuel Calibration

    To expand further, SkyView is looking at 5 decimal places during the calibration. Often the displayed voltage doesn't change(2 decimal places) even though it did change by an amount too small to be seen on the calibration page. This is most common with capacitive level sensors. Resistive...

    12V On/Off Inputs

    The Dynon heated pitot status is a different case and does not need the resistor installed. It does not put out voltage from our pitot heat control, it only grounds the 5 volts sent by the EMS. The resistor is only needed when connecting a GP input to something that puts out aircraft voltage.

    The one thing all of these reports had in common were different pulse per revolution settings in the tach calibration settings. I could not make it happen if both are the same ie: two magnetos, two Pmags, what ever. SkyView uses the highest RPM reading of the two inputs and it looks like it was...

    I have isolated this bug. It is caused by the difference in pulse per revolution settings between one standard mag and another ignition system that is using a different pulse per revolution. I have the case written up for engineering to fix, but they won't resolve it until version 16.3 which is...

    Seattle Avionics price increase

    Aviation / Obstacle databases get you airport info, airspace info, frequencies and obstacles. These are what drive the SkyView base map and airport information. Seattle Avionics gets you sectional charts, IFR enroute charts and approach plates

    Seattle Avionics price increase

    John, So you know, Jepp charts do not work on SkyView We can use Jepp airport and obstacle data outside the USA (or in the USA for that matter), but we don't support their chart format.

    Latest update erased Aithre CO sensor data

    Yes, it is the .sfg file. Had a guy the other day added three sensors to the file and 2 were not available until he deleted a couple of unused sensors from the file.

    12V On/Off Inputs

    Just a note here, any 14 volt contact inputs into the EMS should have 10K resistors installed. We found that if you have several contacts that all go to 12+ volts at the same time, it will X out all of the widgets on the EMS screens. Not exciting when you take off and retract the gear to lose...

    Latest update erased Aithre CO sensor data

    The latest version is using the 10K pull up resistor. I had to redo the file as Van's was using the Aithre device and did not have any enhanced GP inputs available. I keep pushing to add them to the file, but it is maxed out in it's size and going to take some software work to allow it to be...

    Adding second voltage widget to HDX.

    Did you configure pin 2 in sensor input mapping? EMS SETUP > SENSOR INPUT MAPPING

    HDX update 16.0.8 dtd 2 Dec 2021 failed. HDX display will not boot up any more.

    I would like to hear more about this to see if I can get to the bottom of what transpired. Email me at support@dynonavionics.com so I can gather some information.

    Erratic EMS voltage sensor

    One of the EMS grounds must be tied to the battery ground bus. They are connected to each other internally and the remainder are used to ground various sensors as needed. Grounds are often the causes of weird behaviors such as this.

    Issues with Aithre Shield CO meter

    Jim from Aithre contacted me earlier in the week and they had made a small change to new modules that is causing issues with the reading on the SkyView. You might want to talk to him about it before spending much time with it.

    Loading Edited Config file

    That is normal, there is lots of things in the config file that are not importable. Should be no problem as the important parts do get imported.

    ADSB 472 Traffic Not Showing or Erratic?

    No reason that everyone should not load the patch. It doesn't have the potential of breaking anything, so feel free to load it when updating to 16.0.4 After 12-9-2021 the issue goes away on it's own, but in the meantime.
