SV-MAG-236 Remote Magnetometer Installation and Configuration
8-4 SkyView HDX System Installation Manual - Revision E
As with the SV-ADAHRS-200, an SV-MAG-236 should be mounted within one (1) degree
of parallel to all three (3) aircraft axes. The SV-MAG-236 should be oriented such that:
• The SV-MAG-236’s mounting tabs must be oriented towards the bottom of the
aircraft.
• The label on the SV-MAG-236’s must be oriented towards the top of the aircraft.
• The side of the SV-MAG-236 where the cable exists must be oriented towards
the nose of the aircraft (as noted on the label of the unit – CABLE END
FORWARD).
• The side of the SV-MAG-236 with the LED indicator must be oriented towards
the rear of the aircraft.
The SV-MAG-236 will not be able to indicate correct heading if it is rotated or
inverted in any other orientation.
The SV-MAG-236 must be installed in the same orientation as the SV-
ADAHRS-200. The SV-ADAHRS-200 is required to be level, and the SV-
MAG-236 is also. If the SV-ADAHRS-200 is installed with a pitch other than
0°, the SV-MAG-236 must be installed with the same pitch. As with the SV-
ADAHRS-200, it may be necessary to use an electronic level as a “spirit” or
“bubble” level may not be able to display an accurate enough degree of level.
Dynon Avionics does not provide mounting hardware with SV-MAG-236. The mounting
tabs on each side of the module have holes sized for #10 fasteners, but it is up to the
installer to decide how the SV-MAG-236 will be secured to the aircraft.
For best performance, it is recommended that button-head style non-ferrous (brass
recommended) fasteners be used to install the SV-MAG-236 in this location. Follow
recommended torque practices when tightening the mounting hardware. Do not rivet the
SV-MAG-236 to the aircraft as this will hinder future removal if necessary.
Do not use a magnetic driver when installing the SV-MAG-236. Doing so has
the potential to affect the factory magnetic calibration.
8.2 SV-OAT-340 Connected to SV-MAG-236
The SV-ADAHRS-200 includes an SV-OAT-340 and can be used with the SV-MAG-236.
Only one (1) SV-OAT-340 is required in a SkyView system. The SV-OAT-340 can be
connected to an SV-ADAHRS-200, or an SV-MAG-236. In a SkyView System which has
an SV-ADAHRS-200, and an SV-MAG-236, it is possible to have a total of three (2) SV-
OAT-340s, but only one (1) SV-OAT-340 is used by the system at one (1) time. If more
than one (1) SV-OAT-340 is installed, the system “chooses” which of the three (2) to use
for OAT.
