SkyView - Dynon Avionics

Autopilot Servo Installation, Configuration, and CalibrationWhile not required, you may install a 4.7 - 5.3k ohm resistor across the AP Disengage/CWSbutton. A future firmware update will allow SkyView to detect a break in this circuitry if thisresistor is present in the installation.Wire SizingWhile it is beyond the scope of this installation guide to advise on specific types of wiring for aparticular aircraft, choice of wiring should be sized to 1) minimize voltage drop over the lengthof the particular wiring run, and 2) conduct the amount of current required by the subsystemwithout the wiring becoming warm to the touch. Appendix C: Wiring and Electrical Connectionscontains information and suggested resources for wiring and electrical connections.Wiring InstallationCare should be taken such that aircraft wiring is not subjected to chafing, excessive flexing, orconnections/junctions subjected to excessive vibration which may cause theconnection/junction to fail or short-circuit.Autopilot Servo Calibration and Test ProceduresYou must calibrate, test, fine tune, and flight test the autopilot servos in order tocomplete the autopilot installation.Adjusting autopilot settings while the autopilot is engaged is not recommended, assome settings changes may cause the autopilot to react immediately and counterto the pilot’s immediate expectations.All servos must be properly networked into the SkyView system and IAS tape colors /v-speeds must be configured prior to any servo calibration, testing, or tuning.Reference the Network Setup and Status Section for instructions on how tonetwork the servos into the system and the Airspeed Limitations Section forinstructions on how to set IAS tape colors.Servo Calibration ProcedureThe servo calibration procedure identifies the orientation and range of motion of each servoand must be performed before the servo test procedure. SkyView uses this procedure toautomatically differentiate between the pitch and the roll servos.To calibrate the servos, enter the Servo Calibration Wizard (SETUP MENU > HARDWARECALIBRATION > SERVO CALIBRATION > CALIBRATION) and follow the onscreen instructions tocalibrate the servo(s). If the servo calibration procedure is successful, SkyView will automaticallyinstruct you to run the servo test procedure.10-12 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision J
