Dynon SkyView HDX - EMS Sensor Input Mapping

SV-EMS-220 Engine Monitoring System Installation and Configuration
10-24 SkyView HDX System Installation Manual - Revision E
10.7.2 EMS Sensor Input Mapping
In order to save installers time, Dynon Avionics provides preconfigured
sensor mapping and settings files which support four- and six-cylinder engine
installations, providing the airplane has been wired according to 103488-000

Settings for SV-EMS-220 pin mapping, ranges, widget graphical properties,
etc. are automatically shared between multiple SkyView displays.
Dynon recommends that you install the correct sensor mapping and settings file for your
engine onto the SkyView display using the instructions found in the How to Load and
Delete Files Section. Then update or modify the sensor settings according to the Airplane
Flight Manual for your airplane..
Note that it is critical that you should check every setting before operating your engine
with them as these files are only a starting point. While efforts were made to set up
temperature, pressure, and other ranges to reasonable starting points, Dynon Avionics
makes no claim that they are correct for your engine, as slightly different engines may
have different limits.
Use this section as a guide when you review and update the sensor map and settings
that were sourced from the preconfigured file. Also use this section if you are creating a
sensor map and settings from scratch.
10.7.2.1 EMS Sensor Mapping Explanation
The SkyView system must be configured to map SV-EMS-220 pin numbers to physical
sensors. This section contains an explanation of what it means to define a sensor for
mapping purposes and also contains instructions on how to map sensors mentioned in
this section to pins on the SV-EMS-220. Mapping can be accomplished using two (2)
methods: you can use a premade file as mentioned above or you can manually map
engine sensors to EMS module pins.
All sensors and transducers are mapped in the Sensor Input Mapping Wizard. As
mentioned earlier, some pins are compatible with a variety of sensors, while other pins
have fixed functionality. A sensor is defined in the Sensor Input Mapping Wizard by the
following parameters:
• Pin #–the pin or set of pins the sensor is connected to.
• Function–the phenomenon the sensor measures (e.g., pressure and
temperature).
• Sensor–the physical part used, for example 150 PSI Fluid Pressure (503388-
000).
• Name–a six (6)-character field that names the sensor for use by the pilot in
flight.
