SkyView System Installation Guide - Dynon Avionics

SV-EMS-220/221 Installation and ConfigurationEMS Sensor DefinitionsAll EMS sensor installations require a SkyView Sensor Definitions file. This file is preloaded ontoeach display prior to shipment and contains all of the sensor types that SkyView supports. Itmay be updated in the future to include more sensors. This file is downloadable atdownloads.dynonavionics.com.If you need to update the SkyView Sensor Definitions file, download the file and use theinstructions found in the How to Load and Delete Files Section.The EMS sensor definition file has a .sfg file extension. This file is not automaticallyshared between displays. It must be loaded onto each display in the system.EMS Sensor Input MappingIn order to save installers time, Dynon provides preconfigured sensor mapping andsettings files which support popular four and six-cylinder engine installations. All ofthe installations mentioned in the Example Engine Sensor and TransducerInstallations Section have preconfigured mapping and settings files that areavailable for download at downloads.dynonavionics.com.The file that contains sensor mapping, settings, and widget graphical propertiesinformation has a .dfg file extension and is automatically shared between displays.Installers do not need to transfer files between displays.If your engine installation is listed in the Example Engine Sensor and Transducer InstallationsSection, we recommend you install one of the sensor mapping and settings files onto theSkyView display using the instruction found the How to Load and Delete Files Section. Thenupdate or modify the sensor map and settings based on your installation.Note that it is critical that you should check every setting before operating your engine withthem as these files are only a starting point. While efforts were made to set up temperature,pressure, and other ranges to reasonable starting points, Dynon makes no claim that they arecorrect for your engine, as slightly different engines may have different limits.Use this section as a guide when you review and update the sensor map and settings that weresourced from the preconfigured file. Also use this section if you are creating a sensor map andsettings from scratch.EMS Sensor Mapping ExplanationThe SkyView system must be configured to map SV-EMS-220/221 pin numbers to physicalsensors. This section contains an explanation of what it means to define a sensor for mappingpurposes and also contains instructions on how to map sensors mentioned in this chapter topins on the SV-EMS-220/221. Mapping can be accomplished using two methods: you can use apremade file as mentioned above or you can manually map engine sensors to EMS module pins.7-54 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision O
