    (most of the time) as an encompassing term for “Firmware”, “OS”, and “app” functions. SkyView Classic, SkyView Touch, SkyView SE, and SkyView HDX SkyView SE is a streamlined, simplified edition of SkyView. Although the two editions are within the same family of products, the two editions cannot interoperate. For example, you cannot install a SkyView SE display (SV-D600 or SV-D900) into an existing SkyView (non-SE) system and vice versa.

This connector is used for other Dynon Avionics products, but is not used in SkyView installations. Thus, the 9-pin connector should be removed to use these wires for connecting sensors to the SV-EMS-220.

    System Planning A SkyView HDX system can include as many as three SkyView displays in any combination of SV- HDX800s and SV-HDX1100s. Power Specifications Table 3 contains SkyView displays and devices that are powered by SkyView displays. 5A circuit protection is recommended for SkyView displays in common configurations; 5A is the smallest circuit breaker that is commonly available in certified versions.
  • Page 27 It is important that circuit protection devices be appropriately sized to protect the wiring connected to them. 5A circuit protection is recommend in most cases because that is the smallest circuit breaker that is commonly available in certified versions, and Dynon Avionics wiring harnesses specify wire of at least 22 AWG.

  • Page 293 If the AP is engaged and the Maximum Airspeed limit is changed to a value that is lower than the current airspeed, the AP will immediately act to reduce the airspeed to the new maximum airspeed setting, and may do so aggressively. Dynon Avionics recommends that this setting only be adjusted with the AP disengaged.

  • Page 542 • SENSOR ID – The type of sensor selected in SENSOR INPUT MAPPING for this sensor / input / pin. • RAW – Raw number from the Analog to Digital converter; Dynon Avionics internal use only. • CAL(V) – The exact voltage that is present on this pin. The output of many sensors are converted to a voltage in the SV-EMS-220/221 for processing.
  • Page 543 Appendix H: Sensor Debug Data Similarly, as Pin 14, in Figure 250 above, the displayed RAW value is shown as “5AD” (not 00000000). This value is displayed as a hexadecimal number (Base 16), and increments by 1 for each pulse. Succeeding pulses would change this value to 5AE, then 5AF, then 5B0, etc. If the engine is on (fuel is flowing from the engine back to the tank), the RAW value should be incrementing.
  • Page 544 Appendix H: Sensor Debug Data Thermocouples Thermocouples (CHTs, EGTs) display as voltage in millivolts. .0084 is 84 millivolts, and which converts to 383 degrees F in a J type thermocouple. Vref+ is an internal calibration voltage. If it's not near 5.00V in CAL(V) something in the voltage regulator circuitry is not operating correctly and will likely not read correctly.
