    In other words, a usable "partial-panel" of primary flight instruments should be preserved in the event of the failure of a SkyView display, systems that support it, or other instruments in the aircraft.
  • Page 20: Location Requirements

     Displays require about 2.4” of free space behind the panel, depending on mounting surface thickness.  The SkyView Display Harness (SV-HARNESS-D37) extends about 3” from the back of the display.  Add one inch beyond the physically required volume for the display’s heat sinks and fans to operate.
  • Page 21 System Planning SV-ADAHRS-200 and SV-ADAHRS-201 Proper installation of the SkyView ADAHRS module(s) is critical. PFD performance is significantly linked to a proper ADAHRS installation. The installation location must meet all of the mechanical, magnetic, orientation, and environmental requirements detailed below.
  • Page 22 The label must be on the top. Figure 2 shows the correct orientation of the ADAHRS as it would appear if you were above the aircraft, looking down at it. The module will not operate properly if it is rotated or inverted in any other orientation. SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision K...
  • Page 23  Avoid antenna shadows (i.e., obstructions that block the antenna’s view of the sky).  Do not locate the receiver within 3 feet of transmitting antennas.  All four of the SV-GPS-250 module’s wires should all be connected to each SkyView system display for redundancy.
  • Page 24  Avoid locations that are subject to severe vibration.  Avoid locations that are subject to extended temperature ranges. The battery module has a narrower operating temperature range than other SkyView modules.  Avoid locations that are subject to extreme humidity.
  • Page 25: Mounting Requirements

    A SkyView system consists of displays, modules, and connection hardware. Displays manage power for modules (not servos) and control communication between devices. Modules provide data to the displays. The connection between displays and modules is referred to as a SkyView network.
  • Page 26 The connector is installed after the cable has been run. The servo cabling kit (SV-NET-SERVO: one kit per servo) makes it easy to connect the SkyView system to servos and includes 20 feet of pre-twisted wire (twisted pair 22 AWG wire for data;...

    The only difference is in the size and resolution of the screen. Screen Synchronization SkyView is designed to operate as an integrated system. SkyView configurations with more than one networked display automatically share and synchronize settings on all displays. In-flight settings such as baro and bugs are synchronized in real time as they are adjusted.

    The set of button labels displayed immediately after the display turns on is referred to as the Main Menu. Each SkyView display has an integrated light sensor in the bezel. This light sensor can be used for automatic backlight level management. Reference the Display Setup Section of this guide for instructions on how to configure the display for automatic backlight level management.

    Code Converter Installation and Configuration Section of this guide for more information. If you have more than one SkyView display, each external serial device’s serial TX wire needs to be connected to each screen so that it can send information to each display individually.
  • Page 60 The basic order for installing an external serial device is as follows. 1. Specify a serial port for the device. 2. Make the serial port electrical connection. If you have multiple SkyView displays, each serial port transmit and/or receive wire to or from a serial device should be connected to each display in parallel.
  • Page 61 SkyView outputs its altitude measurements in two different formats. You can use either format on any of the serial ports. These formats are described in Table 11 and Table 12. SkyView will function properly whether or not this altitude encoder functionality is used.
  • Page 62 SkyView’s own ADAHRS-generated pressure altitude. However, the altitude displayed by SkyView on the PFD page is ALWAYS sourced from SkyView ADAHRS data. To have SkyView use an external altitude serial encoder as the pressure altitude source for the SV-XPNDR-26X: 1.

    Read and understand the System Planning Chapter before installing the ADAHRS. If you have more than one ADAHR in your SkyView system, all ADAHRS calibrations are applied to all ADAHRS simultaneously. In other words, you generally only need to go these steps once per system, provided all ADAHRS are calibrated, installed and are connected via SkyView Network.

    This calibration routine samples pitot and static pressures in a windless environment to allow SkyView to provide the best indicated airspeed readings that are possible at very low airspeeds. It is not a required calibration step, but performing this calibration may improve airspeed accuracy at very low indicated airspeeds.

    Dynon SkyView can interface with the Vertical Power VP-X System to provide robust monitoring and control of your electrical system via your SkyView system. In order to use this feature, a Vertical Power VP-X system is required, along with a software license for the VP-X features within SkyView.
  • Page 210: Physical And Electrical Installation

    AOA/pitot probe can have their power monitored by the VP-X by routing the power connections for those components via the VP-X A Dynon SkyView D37 harnesses for a single display contains a pair of power and ground wires. These pairs of wires are a SINGLE power input, and should be connected to a single VP-X input when using the VP-X to provide power to SkyView displays.
  • Page 211: Vp-X Skyview Display Settings

    This lets you configure each display’s serial ports identically.  Connect the VP-X serial TX wire from VP-X connector J1, pin 20 to the SkyView serial RX of your choosing. If you have multiple displays, the VP-X TX wire must be connected to a serial RX wire on each display.

    If set to VP-X, the engine page trim widget will be automatically sourced from the VP-X data.  FLAP POSITION: Set to SkyView EMS if your flaps position signal input is routed to your SV-EMS-220 module, or to VP-X if it is connected to your VP-X system instead. If set to VP-X, the engine page flaps widget will be automatically sourced from the VP-X data.

    The second pressure port is located on an angled surface just under the pitot port and is designed to be very sensitive to AOA. The SkyView system then uses the difference between these two pressures to calculate the current angle of attack.

    This section guides you through the installation of Dynon’s Encoder Converter (Dynon P/N 100362-000). The Encoder Converter is an electronic device that receives the serial encoder data from a SkyView display and outputs standard Mode-C parallel Gray code into your Mode-C transponder.
  • Page 225 Customizing the wire length will facilitate an installation that is both cleaner and more secure. If you have more than one SkyView display, note that like all other serial devices, the encoder converter module needs to be connected to a serial TX from each display simultaneously. See the Serial Devices section for more information about this requirement.
