3-12 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision AA
EXPORT DYNON DIAGNOSTIC FILE... – This specialized data log can only be interpreted by
Dynon Avionics personnel; there is no data in it that can be interpreted by SkyView pilots.
Dynon Avionics Technical Support may request this log in the course of troubleshooting,
especially for issues related to AP performance. Note that this log is very big – over 500 MB
– and takes minutes to save to a USB flash drive. Unless directed to export this log by Dynon
Avionics, there is no reason to do so.
If you have more than one SkyView display in your system, you may be requested to save
the Dynon Avionics Diagnostic File from each of your SkyView displays as each display can
sometimes contain different diagnostic data. If you save the Dynon Avionics Diagnostic File
from multiple displays onto the same USB flash drive, use the 33-character name field to
distinguish the two files, such as naming one “LEFT” and the other one “RIGHT”.
SYSTEM SETUP Menu
This menu contains menus and pages related to the entire SkyView system. When a setting is
changed in one of these menus, it is synchronized to other SkyView displays.
SKYVIEW NETWORK SETUP – Enter this menu to configure your SkyView network or to
check on network status (i.e., display important SkyView module information).
WI-FI SETUP – Enter this menu to configure the Wi-Fi system – password, etc.
SERIAL PORT SETUP – Enter this menu to configure the five general purpose serial ports on
all displays.
AUDIO SETUP – Enter this menu to configure the options and volume for SkyView’s audio
output capability.
AIRCRAFT INFORMATION – Enter this page to record important information regarding your
aircraft. Specifically, enter the tail number of your aircraft–it is used to create unique
SkyView configuration files. It is also used for other purposes. Note that for US planes, the
leading N is a required part of the TAIL NUMBER. TAIL NUMBER should not include dashes
(-) or spaces. Examples:
Correct: N12AB
Incorrect: N-42SV or N 42SV
MEASUREMENT UNITS – Enter this page to configure displayed units (e.g., feet or meters).
TIME – First, configure the Top Bar to display time in SETUP MENU > LOCAL DISPLAY SETUP
> TOP BAR SETUP > TIME: ZULU | LOCAL. Then, in this menu, adjust your preferred offset
from the time currently displayed on the Top Bar.
ARINC-429 – Enter this page to set up ARINC-429 devices connected to SV-ARINC-429
modules.
SCREEN LAYOUT SETUP – Enter this page to configure the availability of the PDF Page,
Engine Page, and Map Page on this display and throughout the system (when more than
one display is installed).
PRIMARY COM – Selects the COM radio to be displayed on the Top Bar and receive a
frequency setting when the APT→COM button is pushed in the MAP MENU. If only one
COM radio is installed, this must be set. If two COM radios are installed, only one can be
displayed on the Top Bar and receive a frequency setting when the APT→COM button is
pushed in the MAP MENU.
