System Overview
SkyView HDX System Installation Manual - Revision E 2-19
2.11.4 Test SkyView Network Cable
SkyView displays are supplied with a test SkyView network cable that is intended for
bench top testing only. The test network cable is not built with aircraft-grade Tefzel®
wiring and should not be permanently installed in an aircraft.
2.11.5 Ethernet Connection
SkyView systems that have more than one display should have their Ethernet ports
permanently connected together. Though not a required connection, it allows aviation and
obstacle databases to be transferred to all displays in a SkyView system when they are
loaded on any one of them. If Ethernet is not connected, aviation and obstacle databases
will need to be loaded on each display in the system individually.
Future SkyView functionality may require Ethernet to be connected as
described in this section. Dynon Avionics strongly recommends connecting
all Ethernet ports together at this time.
The Ethernet connection between SkyView displays is in addition to the SkyView Network
connections, and should be connected on a permanent basis like other SkyView wiring.
Dynon Avionics requires “Low Smoke Zero Halogen” Ethernet cables for use in aircraft.
Low Smoke Zero Halogen Ethernet cables are available from Dynon Avionics (SV-
ETHERNET-3CC). Aircraft containing more than two SkyView displays will need an
Ethernet switch with enough ports to connect all SkyView displays together. Contact
Dynon Avionics for Ethernet switch recommendations if your aircraft has more than two
displays.
Lights on the Ethernet port usually indicate data transfer on traditional
Ethernet devices. In SkyView, they are used instead for display
troubleshooting purposes. See the Maintenance and Troubleshooting section
for more information about what these lights indicate.
2.11.6 Available Cables and Harnesses
Table 7 contains Dynon Avionics part numbers and descriptions for the components that
will typically be used to test and build a SkyView system. Note: network cables with the
“CP” suffix include the second connector – it just is not installed on the cable to facilitate
easy routing through tight areas of an aircraft.
