Won't Boot Up

[Steve Best]

HELP!
My Skyview will not boot until it has gone through at least 10 attempts. The screen shows vertical lines. It eventually boots sometime on battery power and from the mains. I've tried 1,2,5 reboot keys but to no avail. It's very frustrating and takes about 10-15 mins. I can share a what's app link video. Thanks

Several threads on this issue, which is now known as the rainbow screen of death (RSOD). I just sent my right screen in for repair after it did the same and was getting worse (happening more often). Unfortunately mine was about a year outside the warranty window. It won't get better on its own. Contact support for a return authorization (RMA).

Thanks Raymo.
I'm based in the UK which makes even more inconvenient. I've commenced online discussion with Dynon.

Are you using any USB memory stick in your Dynon? There seem to be a correlation between people using USB memory and this failure mode.

This thread might be giving you a bit more insight:

USB size?

I am installing my first HDX system in a Cessna 182P. My customer is wondering what size USB memory stick to get? Thank you in advance!

Guys
After communicating with Dynon they advised that it was a suspect hardware failure. Dynon were excellent in sorting a service exchange unit. Promptly refunded on receipt of my old unit.

All fired and back to what it should be.

Thanks to Dynon again.
