I've just updated my 2 D1000 to 6.0 and solved the traffic problem with ZAON PCAS but now I see that the traffic icon sais "ZAON PARTIAL" ( what does that mean? ). Made a few tests and I notice the while the visual TRAFFIC warning was on screen I didn't hear the audio warning. I went to audio settings and see that traffic alert in on.
Is there any other setting that I should look at?

Thanks!

That's normal. Any device that is passive or has limited capability (such as ADS-B when it's not including radar returns for one reason or another) is considered a "partial" traffic portrait. It just means "be careful, you might not have the whole picture".

As for the audio - do you hear other audio, particularly "DYNON AVIONICS" when you boot SkyView?

So, first make sure you're getting audio from both displays. You can confirm that by going into each display's setup menu individually and going to the audio setup > volume test. You should hear continuous looping audio. If you're not on one, then one of the display's audio wiring isn't hooked up, and that might be your culprit.

I had the chance to get a better look at the system today due to a maintenance.
I can hear sounds from both D1000's . The wiring is ok.
The pilot confirmed that even in flight when a yellow TRAFFIC text is displayed he didn't hear the audio warning.

You mentioned you have a Zaon. Do you also have our transponder and/or the ADS-B module?
