    Stadium TFRs

    With every database download my Skyview display persists in showing "stadium" TRSs, even when none exist. Today my other aviation software and even FSS's also  say these TRF's do not currently exist. Per my FSS and FDC catchall notam 4/3621 stadium TFS are defined as 3 sm and 3000'AGL for 1 hour...

    v14.0 - 14.2.1 warning

    So, running v14.0 - 14.2.1,  I will download the latest obstacle and databases. Then, per your warning, I will restart each display to ensure proper operation. Question: if operation is NOT proper, then what?

    Skyview v14.1

    Does the v14.1 technical service bulletin  imply that v14.1 must be installed after v14.0 is installed  (note #3 in the affected equipment paragraph)? Or is v14.1 merely a correction to v14.0?  I am now running v13.0.3 on a SV-D700 unit, SN 1597. Can I now safely install v14.1 over v13.0.3? Thanks.

    Backup Battery 320

    Today shortly after takeoff my aircraft battery failed to power my Skyview. The Skyview700  responded with the proper warnings: operating on backup battery, and battery voltage low. The planned flight was very short anyway, so I continued for another 10 minutes on backup battery power. On the...

    V 12.2

    If I don't have a Dynon transponder or electric fuel probes, or ADSB connectivity, do I need to bother with v12.2?

    "?" symbol

    I just successfully uploaded v12.0, but noticed a flashing red "?" positioned over the aircraft icon. It was flashing before upload over the default icon and even after changing it to my pusher icon. I have not yet flown with v12.0. Any thoughts?

    Backup battery

    My Skyview backup battery is fully charged and works just fine when I check its operation. But I don't want to do a full 60 minutes battery load test - at least for now. How can I delete the "battery test required" message without waiting for 60 minutes. Yes, I know, this is probably the most...

    Great Support!

    I want to document the outstanding help given to me by Steve. I had a glitch installing Skyview v10.0 and called tech support. Steve stayed on the phone with me continuously for nearly 1/2 hour while we - really, he - solved the problem. Dynon customer support by itself could almost be the sole...

    Zaon XRX serial port(s)

    I've discussed my problem with Dynon tech, but perhaps also a forum visitor could chime in too. My Zaon PRCS XRX was wired professionally and worked fine with my Skyview 700 for almost a year. But in the last couple of months I get the caution message saying Zaon not connected. While trouble...

    Skyview 5.1 Map data

    When downloading the latest Map databases (1302, 1303) I noticed that the note said for 5.0 and higher, but in the next box it said for 5.0 only. The downloads and installation in my Skyview went fine, and I no longer got a "database out of date" message. AFTER those downloads I installed 5.1...

    De-cluttering

    I'll putz around my Skyview displays when I fly tomorrow, but I haven't been able to find anything written about the new ability to declutter manually as the latest Dynon newsletter suggests version 4.0 has. Can you help?

    Map Panning

    I can enable the Map panning feature in 3.2. But is there a way, aside from rebooting, to DEactivate the panning feature? For me, in some instances the lat/long dispaly is a distraction. Thanks.

    Base Map

    Before I install the new Base Map file for 3.2  I'd like to know from someone who already has it whether or not you find it useful. Or does it clutter the screen too much for you, i.e. that feature's usefulness at various ranges, etc? Anything else? Thanks.

    3.2

    The Skyview downloads page already discuss version 3.2 as if it is ready to go, but the page has only 3.1 available. Are we close to getting 3.2? Thx

    Skyview 3.0 & Jeppesen data for Canada as example

    Re: Skyview 3.0 & Jeppesen data for Canada as exam Calvin/Dynon, I understand the data for <3900' Canada runways is missing. However, are the runways/airports themselves still displayed graphically on Skyview? I'm headed north this summer.

    Skyview 3.0 & Jeppesen data for Canada as example

    Re: Skyview 3.0 & Jeppesen data for Canada as exam In prepartion for flying way into Canada this summer I installed the North America data from Jeppeson after also upgrading to Skyview V3.0. Reading about the problems others are having with Jeppeson, I wonder if perhaps the 3.0 terrain display...

    Really an old topic: MAC

    Having read all the old posts about using a MAC in the download process to Skyview, I still don't have a definitive answer. So again, can I in fact use my MacBook for firmware/software downloads and product installations? Yes or No, please. I'm not a techy, just plug and play. Thanks to all.

    NavMap

    Will the upcoming NavMap software include the ability to "customize" the Skyview by selecting or de-selecting certain features, such as airways or not,  airports or not, airspace or not, etc? The intent would be to de-clutter the screen at the user's will, just as the screen is now automatically...
