I've been trying to decide on the merits of including an SL30 in my panel. I'm trying to figure out how it plays with a Skyview.
I've been searching through the installation Manuals & Pilots Guides of both Skyview and the SL30 and the Dynon wiki pages to try and gain a better understanding of the HSI Operation. I am particularly interested in how the Course is selected and what information is required for a bearing source to be valid. The HSI sections are a little vague on its operation. I think some HSI specific screen shots would help here.
I have these questions related to HSI Operation.
1/ How is Course (OBS) set using the Skyview controls?
2/ Are the Skyview ARINC 429 TX and RX labels all the same as an HS34? i.e TX 100G,203,204,210,211 & 320. RX 034G,100,173,174 & 222
3/ Is the Course (OBS) sent out over RS232 to an SL30?
4/ How do the Nav and Bearing Source functions work if previously connected sources are not outputting NAV data. i.e. SL30 or Nav section of GNS430W are not dialled in to an active VOR/ILS frequency. Are they simply not available for selection, greyed out or selectable
but no HSI data is displayed other than the basic DG.
5/ Can a valid standby frequency, say 'SBY1' the standby for 'NAV1' be selected as a Bearing Source?
