CHKLST23.LINE1,
CHKLST23.LINE2, LAST UPDATED 2016-01-12
CHKLST23.LINE3, (DATE MUST BE MANUALLY UPDATED)
This will appear on the last line of the Checklist as:
CHECKLIST INFO >
When you click the arrow:
LAST UPDATED 2016-01-12
(DATE MUST BE MANUALLY UPDATED)
Excel Checklist Generation Tool
Dynon Avionics has developed a SkyView Checklist Generation Tool based on Excel
for Mac or PC; this tool will not work in the versions of Excel accessible online or in
versions of Excel on tablet devices (these versions do not have “macro” capability.
Using this tool is easier than creating a Checklist manually in a text editor, allowing
you to focus on the contents of your particular Checklist. The tool ensures that the
formatting of the Checklist is correct. The tool requires that your computer have
Microsoft Excel installed as it uses Excel’s macro capability to perform the
formatting.
The tool is called “Excel-based Checklist Creator” and can be downloaded from
http://downloads.dynonavionics.com. Dynon Avionics has also released a video
tutorial for this tool, available on the Dynon Avionics Channel section of YouTube –
