Transponder Operation
6-10 SkyView HDX Pilot’s User Guide – Revision B
will periodically annunciate a “Switch Fuel Tank” alert message and audio alert. There is no
visible counter for this timer. See the SkyView Classic / SE / HDX System Installation Guide for
details on configuring this reminder.
FAULTS (Rotax 912iS only)
A detailed list of faults reported by the Rotax 912iS engine computer is shown under MENU >
ENGINE MENU > FAULTS. Normally, it should say NONE. Consult your Rotax service organization
for details of what to do if a fault is shown.
VP-X Operation
Dynon SkyView can interface with the Vertical Power VP-X System to provide robust monitoring
and control of your electrical system via your SkyView system. In order to use this feature, a
Vertical Power VP-X system is required, along with software license for the VP-X features within
SkyView.
VP-X License Information
The VP-X software features are enabled on Dynon SkyView by purchasing a VP-X license code
from Dynon Avionics and entering it into your SkyView system. Only one VP-X license is needed
in a SkyView system, no matter how many displays are attached. That license is applied to only
one display, but that display stores the license information for the entire system. In normal use,
license information is shared with all displays connected via SkyView Network to allow the VP-X
features to be operated on any display in the system.
Information about purchasing a license, installing a VP-X license on a SkyView system, and
configuring SkyView to properly interface with the VP-X can be found by referencing BOTH the
Dynon SkyView System Installation Guide and the Vertical Power VP-X manuals.
