cases, updating SkyView’s Software. If you have an S-LSA, it is recommended that you consult
your aircraft’s Pilot Operating Handbook and aircraft’s Maintenance Manual. These will guide
you in what modifications, including whether Software updates, are permitted. Please consult
your authorized dealer, or your manufacturer, if you have questions.
Some aircraft manufacturers, notably Van’s Aircraft (the RV-12), and Flight Design, provide
customized versions of SkyView Software in “packages”. Such customized packages provide
Software updates and settings specific to those aircraft, and is available from the aircraft
manufacturer’s website (not Dynon Avionics). Some manufacturers choose to “lock” certain
SkyView settings, including not being able to update a SkyView system using “generic” SkyView
Software. Such restrictions are at the discretion of the aircraft manufacturer, and Dynon
Avionics cannot “override” such restrictions.
SkyView documentation, including this guide, generally does not address specific aircraft types,
options, and specific SkyView configurations.
Generally, we recommend that you update your SkyView system to the latest available
Software as released by Dynon Avionics several times per year, available at
http://downloads.dynonavionics.com. This revision of the SkyView System Installation Guide
includes features, functions, improvements, and new products coinciding with the Software
version stated on the cover page. Updating your system Software ensures that you have access
to the latest features, functions, improvements, and new products to make your SkyView
system…

Getting Started
This “getting started” section contains a minimal information that can be used to check out
your SkyView system on the bench, or immediately after SkyView has been installed in the
plane. This section is not a substitute for reading this entire guide, which provides instructions
for wiring and configuring SkyView to the unique requirements of your particular airplane.
1. A SkyView display requires 10-30 VDC. You must connect BOTH of the (long) Red wires to
POWER and BOTH of the (long) black wires to Ground. Current for each display can be up to
3.5A @ 12V (add 1.5A if the SV-BAT-320 battery is connected and being charged), so use a
big battery or power supply.
2. To power on or power off a SkyView display manually, push and hold Button #1 (the left-
most button).
3. Any devices connected to SkyView that do not receive their power from the SkyView
Network (such as SV-XPNDR-261/262 and Dynon Avionics Autopilot servos) must also be
powered ON to communicate with SkyView.
4. To finish the installation of the SV-NET-10CP (10 foot) and longer cables, the diagram you
need to insert the pins is SkyView Network in Appendix C: Wiring and Electrical
Connections.
