    ADS-B Performance report

    Phil Just a Thought. When testing the GPS-2020 did you change the transponder setting from Garmin ADS-B/ADS-B+ to SV-GPS-2020? Jim

    ADS-B Performance report

    Jack The SV250-2020 and the GTN 650 are position sources that send information to your transponder. The transponder determines the frequency and Dynon's transponder is a 1090 unit. The Dynon ADSB-470 only receives on 978 (UAT) and the Dynon ADSB-472 receives on 978 and 1090. Jim

    ADSB 472

    I wanted to add another data point. I have been seeing traffic disappear and and then a short time later reappear ,all while ADS-B OK displayed on local flights. At the same time stratux and FlyQ on the ipad was showing the traffic most of which were mode C so I was getting the data from the...

    What Is The Best iPad App For SV

    I use Fly Q but since you have a GTN 650 I would lean toward Foreflight as it is capable of transferring flight plans bidirectionally, dynamic pitch and bank, and GPS information  with the GTN 650 as well as Dynon Skyview. If one of the devices is equipped with ADS-B that info is transferred...

    Swapping out GTX327 for XPNDR-261

    Russ If you use the 430W as your position source instead of the SV-GPS-2020 then you need a serial connection from the 430W to the SV-XPNDR-261 see page 11-7 of the latest install manual. Jim

    v15 bug(?) - HSI no longer circular

    My preference if for round HSI and a toggle button to go to ARC. Do not like current display of HSI.

    Flap sensor voltage issue on Skyview

    I am not sure what you mean by sharing connection with trim servo. The position sensor does not share connections with the servo drive wires. The White/Blue should go to ground The white/orange should go to +5V (Supplied by EMS-220) The White/Green  should still go to Violet/Yellow (Pin #22) Jimmie

    Problem with accessing multiple USB drives

    Page 24 of Pilots Guide Note that only one USB flash drive memory stick can be connected to a SkyView display at a time. However, the Video Input and Wi-Fi Adapters can be plugged in simultaneously and at the same time as a USB flash drive.

    I am SO sick of the SA app

    Jeff On my 6 year old desktop with a usb 3.0 card installed and usb 3.0 thumb drives it typically takes about 17 to 20 minutes to update each thumb drive. I have the SA app running in the background so the data is already downloaded to my desktop. When it is time to update I normally leave the...

    Problems pushing frequency from SV to SL30

    I see nothing in your post to indicate you configured the Skyview to talk to the SL30. It is not the same as the SL40. Installation manual page 88 for SL30 and page 89 for SL40

    SA Data Manager

    I had long update times 3.5 to 5 hours depending on the number of files being updated. I bought a $19 usb 3 card and two SanDisk Ultra Fit usb 3 flash drives. Copying the complete data set to the usb drive took 23 minutes. I have not done a update yet but I expect it to be 15 minutes or less...

    SkyView Battery Charging before first flight.

    I just did a G3X system for a friend and used a TCW backup battery so I am familiar with the system. TCW does not recommend charging from your main battery. Their older Ni-mh based systems recommend a trickle charge hookup to keep the battery topped off because Ni-mh batteries self discharge...

    SkyView Battery Charging before first flight.

    It would appear the RV-7A pilot did not read the manual. There is pretty good documentation already but adding more will not help if you do not read it. Page 9-4 Initial/Recurrent Backup Battery Test Perform this test to ensure each backup battery in the SkyView system is fully functional upon...

    Attitude display

    Referring to Figure 15 in the pilots manual. Are you asking about the 2 minute turn turn triangles and or the water line symbology ? The 2 minute turn is calculated and will only be shown if you are moving. Back to Figure 9 the item labeled flight path marker will also only be shown if you are...

    Map flight plan missing

    Look in the Flight Plan Menu when in map mode and you will find find a selection for FPL SHOWN ON MAP. The selection is at the bottom of the list just above EXIT. If you selected the 430 in the past then it will stay there until you switch it back to skyview. Pilots Manual Page 7-50.
