CO Indictor

[whctcomm]

Does Dynon have it in the future to have a CO warning indicator on the screen?

That would be MUCH valued...

I think a full time monitor with alarm is better than a sticker that tells someone u died from CO poisoning.

No promises (it's not real until it ships), but it's on the shorter list of features to implement soon.

Excellent! Would that include Dynon hardware, or support for 3rd party monitors? or both?

I was just going to suggest this when I saw this thread so let me strongly second this request.
While one can get false alarms such as when taxiing close behind another aircraft that is unusual and being aware of the build up of CO would be very valuable and potentially lifesaving. I use a portable CO monitor but am concerned I would not hear the alert in the cockpit with noise cancelling headphones.

I installed the Flight Data Systems GD-40 CO detector and hooked up the alert line to Skyview. I have a round button on the screen that glows green normally and alerts when it turns red.

I did the exact same thing with a CO2 Guardian detector.

Connecting to a Skyview contact to get an alarm is nice, but having a CO2 ppm gauge would be more useful.

What RS-232 settings did you use for the CO Guardian 353P? Thanks!

 

[dynonsupport]

SkyView does not currently support the Guardian CO detector other than monitoring a contact closure. Better support in SkyView for these types of devices have been requested a number of times previously, but to date, it has not been implemented.

Which ones does Skyview support?

 

[dynonsupport]

SkyView does not currently support any CO detector, other than monitoring and displaying the status of a contact input.
