When I upgraded my dual networked Skyview D700 systems from version 4.01 to 5.1, just as I did from 3.2 to 4.01,  both my ADAHR & Transponder failed to come up after reboot. The system reported a warning of their not being current. When I look at the network status,  it showed that the Dynon is at Ver 5.1 and both the ADAHR & the Transponder are reporting yellow with version 5.0. My attempt to force a network  upgrade failed to upgrade either to Ver 5.1.

The only thing my Internet T/S research turned up was a general forum thread "ADAHRS not current".  But it ended with a suggestion to call the support desk.

Any recommendations on how to update the ADAHRS & Transponder  OR roll back my two D700s to ver 5.0 or earlier?  Or do I need to call the support desk?

MY AIRCRAFT SETUP
* A SeaRey LSX with a ROTAX 914
* Network pair of Skyview D700s
* single ADAHRS
* a single transponder
* A Garmin 696 serving as its GPS feed.

This is a real bummer, because I was upgrading to Ver 5.X to 1) more thoroughly capture my airplane's stall flight parameters and to calibrate the system to make use of the Dynon AOA feature (i have a Dynon AOA pitot tube). Now I am grounded until fixed. and 2) to see if would resolve a loss of ACARS reporting when it loss its Garmin GPS lock.

The transponder doesn't show up on the network status page at all, so do you mean the SV-ARINC-429 module? Something's not adding up here. You might give our support team a call at 425-402-0433 when you're at the aircraft so that they can walk you through some of the troubleshooting steps.

As a first step, try performing a network configuration, and see if that prompts you to update the two modules that aren't on 5.1.

To closeout this thread. I did contact the support team. They had me go into the setup of my primary DYNON and force an update of the network attached modules. That worked for all but the other DYNON SV-D700. So I went to the setup for the the out of version DYNON SV-D700 and reinstalled the update and that did the trick. Al units were on the same version and good to go. :)

As aside note that let me avail myself of Version 5.0 system logging feature to capture an details data set of my homebuilt stall profile. Very handy test flight tool :D
