SkyView - Dynon Avionics

SV-D700 / SV-D1000 Installation and ConfigurationIf you see a screen similar to the one in Figure 18, simply press UPDATE to synchronize thefirmware running on the equipment in the SkyView network.To check on SkyView network status, enter the NETWORK STATUS… Menu in the NetworkSetup Menu (SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > NETWORK STATUS…).The Network Status Page shows all displays, modules, servos, and other Dynon Avionicsproducts installed on the SkyView network via the D9 SkyView Network connectors. Thisincludes the following devices: SV-D1000 and SV-D700 DISPLAYS, SV-ADAHRS-20X modules, SV-EMS-220 modules, SV-ARINC-429 modules, and Dynon Autopilot Servos. It does NOT includeany non-Dynon devices or any of the following Dynon devices that connect via a method otherthan SkyView Network: SV-XPNDR-26X transponder, OAT or individual engine sensors, SV-GPS-250.Ethernet ConnectionSkyView systems that have more than one display should ideally have their Ethernet portsconnected together for best operation. See the SkyView System Construction section in thismanual for further information about Ethernet.Internal Time KeepingZulu/GMT time is initially obtained from a GPS source. Time is displayed as “--:--:--“ until asource is found. When a display is turned off, a connected SV-BAT-320 enables the display tokeep track of time. Displays that are not connected to a battery must obtain current time froma GPS source whenever they are turned on.Serial DevicesSerial communication to non-Dynon devices and interfacing of other devices in general can beinvolved and detailed. This installation guide is intended to provide general installation advicefor the most common devices and situations. Dynon’s Documentation Wiki provides enhanced,extended, frequently updated online documentation contributed by Dynon employees andcustomers at wiki.dynonavionics.com.There are five general purpose RS-232 serial ports available for use with compatible equipmenton a SkyView display. Serial port transmit (TX) and receive (RX) wire sets are twisted togetherand connected serial devices must share a common power ground with the SkyView display(s).Typically connected serial devices include the SV-GPS-250, transponders, NAV radio (e.g.,Garmin SL30), and other GPS devices (e.g., Garmin X96). Reference the SV-GPS-250 Installationand Configuration Section of this guide for detailed installation and configuration instructionsfor Dynon’s SV-GPS-250. Additionally, an external serial device (such as a PC) can be connectedand used to record real-time EMS module data that can be output by SkyView.Serial port 5 is recommended for the SV-GPS-250 connection. Its wire bundleincludes serial transmit, receive, ground, and power, and its wires are colormatchedto the wire colors on the SV-GPS-250.4-10 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision J
