Dedicated engine monitor screen?

I currently have dual SV1000T screens with a typical configuration of:

Left screen = PFD/MAP (50/50)
Right screen = EMS/PFD (50/50)

I've tried using 40/40/20 with EMS in the 20 but am not comfortable with the compact views and limited space (though I might get there some day). I would really like a dedicated EMS screen so both SV1000T screens could stay PFD/MAP full time.

What would be the best screen option for this configuration? D10, D100, SV700? Something else?


Thanks in advance for your thoughts.

Wasn't there an aftermarket App that shows the EMS on iPad ?  It was on this forum some time ago called Skyview Assist.

edit: found it here - https://skyviewassist.wordpress.com/

SkyView and D10/D100 series product don't connect to each other. An SV-D700 display would do the job, though.

More than likely not possible in an RV 7/9 panel, just not the real estate available normally in addition to the 2x SVD1000's.

Thanks for the feedback. As Jake mentioned, I probably don't have room for a 7" screen with my current layout but could move things around to make it happen.

Something to ponder after paint.

I fly with the 40/20/40 display all the time. Dynon built in a feature to set your mind at ease. Since you can program alarm values for virtually anything monitored by the EMS and get a flashing Warning/Caution light (many with Aural warning as well) you will get notice of an anomaly. This will likely occur before you notice it unless you spend more time monitoring your EMS Engine display than looking outside. Upon receiving such a Warning/Caution you could simply deselect the map and your display is instantly 50/50 PFD/EMS in the exact EMS layout you prefer since you are allowed to specify a layout for each of the 20, 40 and 100 percent screen sizes. A brilliant bit of ergonomic engineering from our friends at Dynon.
