I reviewed the product guide, and this forum, please forgive me if this has been covered.  Missed it.

The Intercom is capable of two Comms - How do you switch between Com 1 and Com 2?

You install a simple switch on the panel that selects which radio you transmit on.

What options do I have if I want to intall the Dynon intercom in a four place aircraft? Is there a way to support 4 headsets?

You'd probably be best served with a Non-Dynon product. There are plenty of good 4 place intercoms and audio panels on the market that will work with SkyView just fine. We have a PMA5000EX in the 4 place airplane some of the employees own and like it.

Newbie here planning my Skyview panel, now with the dual Dynon comm radios and your intercom module.  I understand that a switch is used to know which radio to transmit from, however, how does Skyview send frequencies to each radio?  Can you select which radio to send the frequencies?

If you have two radios in the plane, only COM 1 is tuned by SkyView. You can't choose to send a frequency from SkyView to COM 2.

If the second radio is a Dynon COM, all the neat features like tuning it direct with one button and choosing airports right on the radio work on both COM1 and COM2, but only COM1 is displayed on the top of SkyView, and the TUNE button in the menus only sends to COM1.

The goal with the Dynon radio's specific buttons and features is that you will hardly ever use the TUNE function in SkyView since the radio itself has such quick access to frequencies.

You say a switch is required to select com1 or com 2. Can it be a momentary pushbutton switch like I have on my grip, or must it be a toggle switch with com 1 on one side and com 2 on the other? If momentary works, does it require 2 pushbuttons, one for com 1 and one for com 2? Or is it a flip-flop with one pushbutton?
