Some good news. I can see that the GNS 430W is communicating with the SV-ARINC-429 and the SV-ARINC-429 is communicating with the Skyview system. I did as Steve W. stated and results were good.

I then went into PFD on the Skyview and on the HSI selection I can go through "Skyview" and "GPS 1 GARMN".

On the GNS 430W I did a direct to an airport. I then when back to the Skyview/autopilot and was able to select the HSI for GPS 1 GARMN. I was able to hear the autopilot servos kick in.

Now I just need a nice day to go try this during a flight, but may be a while due to business travel.

I also went into the ARINC-429 settings and set Input 2 as NAV 1. With this setting Input 2 Labels Received is now incrementing as it does with Input 1 Labels Received.

I do have a question since this is all new to me. I am assuming that Input 1 set as GPS 1 is the GPS source from the GNS 430W and Input 2 set as NAV 1 is the VOR/Glideslope source from the GNS 430W. Is this a correct assumption?

Again, thank you so much for all your help. Just glad to see that all my connections that were may a couple of years back are correct and if I end up making any changes it will be to split channel 1 on the GNS 430W since I need Aviation Mode for the Skyview connection and I also need Aviation Mode for the Garmin 327 transponder.

Sin agad e! Good news...glad it's all working.

Couple of things to check...read through the installation manuals and make sure you have things set to autoswitch from GPS navigation to VOR/LOC automatically. That way the system will switch when appropriate and fly you right on down the glideslope!

Enjoy, and let us know how things go...

I am sure that I have it set up for "autoswitch", bit will check.

Thank you and love my Dynon Skyview system.
