5. DSAB CONFIGURATION<br />

This section introduces some concepts that are central to understanding and configuring a<br />

network of DSAB-capable <strong>Dynon</strong> products. It then takes you through a series of simple steps to<br />

configure your network, enabling data sharing and HS34 functionality. Do not proceed with<br />

DSAB configuration until you perform all installation, calibration, and configuration steps for<br />

each instrument with a display. Display-less instruments – such as the HS34 – cannot be fully<br />

configured until DSAB is active, although their physical and electrical installation should be<br />

complete.<br />

Network Concepts<br />

A few concepts must be<br />

understood before<br />

configuring a DSABconnected<br />

system. The<br />

most important is that of<br />

<strong>Dynon</strong> products as<br />

providers of functions to<br />

the network. These<br />

various functions are<br />

called roles. Some<br />

products, such as the<br />

HS34, only have one role<br />

on the network; other<br />

products can provide<br />

multiple roles at a time.<br />

When a device has been<br />

assigned to provide a role<br />

to the network, no other<br />

device on the network can<br />

provide that role at the<br />

same time.<br />

Assignable<br />

roles by<br />

product<br />

The table at right lists all available roles and the products which they can be assigned to. Again,<br />

each role can be assigned to no more than one device on the network.<br />

Another important concept is that of the Bus Master. A DSAB-connected network must have at<br />

least one <strong>EFIS</strong>-based product (<strong>EFIS</strong>-D10A, <strong>EFIS</strong>-<strong>D100</strong>, or FlightDEK-D180), and only an <strong>EFIS</strong>based<br />

product can be assigned the Bus Master role. The Bus Master is the instrument which<br />

manages communication on the network. Additionally, if Autopilot servos are installed, the Bus<br />

Master is the Autopilot. While the Autopilot can be controlled from slave devices, if the Bus<br />

Master is not present, the Autopilot will not function. If the Bus Master is turned off or fails, all<br />

data sharing ceases, causing units to display internally-derived data only. When you first perform<br />

DSAB network configuration on an <strong>EFIS</strong>-based instrument, that device is automatically assigned<br />

the Bus Master role. Perform DSAB configuration on your primary <strong>EFIS</strong>-based instrument, as<br />

the Bus Master is also the default provider for both the <strong>EFIS</strong> and Compass roles.<br />
