o Improved: More robust failure handling on SkyView network. Should
module(s) or screen(s) fails, the remaining available devices will continue
working normally with no action or setup steps required. This also means
that unlike in the D10/D100 series, SkyView systems have no specific
“master” screen that needs special consideration.
o Added: HSI and related textual info items around it. Requires a compatible
serial NAV or GPS. Includes SL30 NAV radio and NMEA/Aviation format GPS
units.
o Added: Wind vector on PFD
o Added: OEM screen display configuration lockdown with single screen
failure mode. Contact Dynon Avionics directly for details.
o Improved: Fuel flow damped to smooth out readings / eliminate jumpiness.
Software changes in SkyView Software v2.5.1 released July, 2010 (no documentation

screen failure mode. This release adds no new customer features, and does

Software changes in SkyView Software v2.6:
o Added: Requirement for both TX and RX lines from serial devices to be
connected to all SkyView Displays to ensure devices remain available in the
event of display failure. Will require minimal wiring changes in some
existing SkyView systems.

o Added: Support for SV-ARINC-429 module which adds ARINC-429 transmit

receiving data from a compatible device. Current device support includes
TIS from SV-XPNDR-26X and TIS from devices that output Garmin format
serial data. This currently includes the Garmin GTX330, Zaon XRX, and
NavWorx ADS-B receivers.

power issues.
