    Firmware 5.6.1

    Thanks, I'll check the pin crimp and change out the Red Cube if needed.

    Firmware 5.6.1

    Is there any reason this SW version could cause the Red Cube flow sensor to be more sensitive? Following the update the flow reading bounces in a range of 0.5 GPH where before it was steady. The K factor is unchanged at 68,000 and the engine is a Rotax 912ULS. It may just be time for a new...

    D100/120 5.6.1 software update

    "Improved: Factory default settings provide a better out-of-the-box experience for new users." Will our settings in 5.6.0 be changed in any way by updating to 5.6.1? Will, for example, our display choices and autopilot settings be altered by making the update? Nice to see support continue for...

    5.5 to 5.6?

    Thanks for the prompt reply. If it ain't broke .... don't do the software update. :)

    5.5 to 5.6?

    Are there any general improvements to the operation of the EFIS, EMS or autopilot in the 5.6 version? If my compass is accurate and I'm not changing engine senders, is there any benefit to making the upgrade? Everything is currently working very well and very stable.

    D100 fully coupled approaches.... when? (if ever)

    Thanks for the straight up answer. I think we all understand the business case and are realistic about the choices you need to make. You certainly need to sustain a competitive edge and that's with the Skyview program not the D series.

    D100 fully coupled approaches.... when? (if ever)

    Normally Dynon is very responsive but this silence is disrespectful of customers who have bought and enjoy the fine legacey products. If it's 100% Skyview from here on out and no further resources to the D series, please just say so. If on the other hand, we just maybe get one more autopilot...

    SportCruiser servo's

    Hi, My PiperSport, P1001073, has the SV32's on both roll and pitch and I have no slippage issues. If you still have this problem, I'll take a look at which hole the linkage is attached to and advise. I'm also running the AP from the D100 which is less agressive than the Skyview setup with the...

    Garmin 696 software Ver. 6.8 Bug?

    Garmin agrees, just released 6.9 system software to fix it. Garmin says of the release: "Correct serial data format selection at power up." Seems like the 695/696 system software is mature and it would be wise to pass up any new release unless it adds a feature you really need. Many of the...

    Garmin 696 software Ver. 6.8 Bug?

    NEMA output is set normal not fast. Yes, I have to flip between two Garmin options on every restart to get the TIS and NEMA data flowing. Once it's going, it's fine, so it seems to be an initial timing routine issue. I also opened a Garmin service record as I think it's something they introduced...

    Garmin 696 software Ver. 6.8 Bug?

    Running Dynon 5.5 on my D100. Updated the Garmin 696 to system ver. 6.8. Headed off and no TIS from the GTX-330 and no nav feed to the auto pilot. There was a nice magenta line on the 696 but no feed to the AP.  Landed and checked the 696 settings, confirmed as correct. I was able to restore the...

    Lost NAVSRC worse after upgrade to 5.4

    How close is Dynon to releasing the D100 auto pilot software upgrade? Are we days, weeks or months out? I'd rather not install the betaware if we are close to a production release.

    Lost NAVSRC worse after upgrade to 5.4

    Just to add additional reports: I flew a 600 mile, near 7 hour trip yesterday with no drop outs. Garmin 696, AP74, HS34 and D100. 6.5 on the Garmin and 5.4.3 on the D100. Longest leg with the AP in command was at least 2 hours; total AP time was close to 6 hours. I have seen rare drop outs in...

    Lost NAVSRC worse after upgrade to 5.4

    Seems like there would be a sales market for current D100 owners who would like the full features of the new Skyview AP. The AP76 could replace ones current AP74 and fit in the same panel space. The features gained are well worth the $1,500 cost of the new control head. The software work is...

    SkyView 6.0 Autopilot-IFR Capable w/VFR Simplicity

    Any hope the D100 community could get some benefits from these software refinements? We are still waiting for the final release of the GPS dropout fix software. You have a large base of customers who would really be grateful for improvements with the D100 autopilot while understanding your...

    Lost Nav Source with Garmin 696 ver 6.0

    Flew 5 hours with 6.20 software on my Garmin 696 feeding the EFIS D100 AP; no drop outs, perfect function restored.

    Troubleshooting Oil Pressure - D120 & Honeywell

    I had very unreliable pressure readings. Eventually ran a new signal wire with a new metal 200 ohm resistor to good ground and then into pin 6. Solved the problem. You might also have a bad crimp in the connector, I cut out the connector and soldered the 12v and signal wires directly to the...

    Lost Nav Source with Garmin 696 ver 6.0

    This from Garmin on Aug 4: Yes, an issue has been identified with the new software that was recently released to support the GDL39. A couple of clarifications. The GPSMAP 69X and GDL39 work just fine with no problems. The GPSMAP 69X does not lose navigation. The issue is only experienced by...
