Information about the operation of these instruments can be found in the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide.
If you are converting to SkyView from an earlier Dynon Avionics D10/D100 series system, we have written the D10/D100 Series to SkyView Conversion Guide, which details the changes required to convert between the two product families. It is available as a downloadable PDF document at http://docs.dynonavionics.com.
Warning
Dynon Avionics’ products incorporate a variety of precise, sensitive electronics. SkyView products do not contain any field/user-serviceable parts. Units found to have been taken apart may not be eligible for repair under warranty. Additionally, once a Dynon Avionics unit is opened up, it is not considered airworthy and must be serviced at the factory.

This icon denotes information that merits special attention.
This icon denotes a helpful installation tip.
Getting Started
This “getting started” section contains a very small amount of information that can be used to check out your SkyView system on the bench, or immediately after SkyView has been installed in the plane. This is not a substitute for reading the entire SkyView System Installation Guide, which provides instructions for wiring and configuring SkyView to the unique requirements of your particular airplane.
1.A SkyView display requires 10-30 VDC. You must connect BOTH of the (long) Red wires to POWER and BOTH of the (long) black wires to Ground. Current for each display can be up to 3.5A @ 12V (add 1.5A if the SV-BAT-320 battery is connected and being charged), so use a big battery or power supply.
2.To power on or power off a SkyView display manually, push and hold Button #1 (the leftmost button).
3.Any devices connected to SkyView that do not receive their power from the SkyView Network (such as SV-XPNDR-261/262 and Dynon Autopilot servos) must also be powered ON to communicate with SkyView.
4.To finish the installation of the SV-NET-10CP (10 foot) and longer cables, the diagram you need to insert the pins is SkyView Network Connection Pin-Out in Appendix C: Wiring and Electrical Connections.
1-2 |
SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision S |
5.The EMS 37-pin Main Sensor Harness includes a 9-pin connector that is wired to pins 11 (Orange wire), 12 (Yellow wire), and 30 (Black wire). This connector is used for other Dynon products, but is not used in SkyView installations. Thus, the 9-pin connector should be removed to use these wires for connecting sensors to the SV-EMS-220. Remove the connector by cutting the three wires close to the 9-pin connector.
6.SkyView SETUP MENU is accessed by pushing and holding Buttons 7+8 together for 2-3 seconds.
7.Setting the Tail Number is required for before you can configure your SkyView Network (described below): SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION > TAIL NUMBER. If Tail Number has not yet been issued for your plane, set TAIL NUMBER to something other than DYNON.
8.Many SkyView displays and modules communicate over a common set of wires – the SkyView Network that terminates at the D9 connectors on the back of your SkyView display(s). Getting all modules and displays “talking” on SkyView Network is done by going to SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > CONFIGURE > (click right one more time). If a module is noted as “requires update”, press the UPDATE button. Otherwise, press the FINISH button. Note that you will not see any flight instruments or engine instruments before a network configuration is performed, even if the SV-ADAHRS-200/201 and SV-EMS- 220/221 have been wired properly and are connected.
9.Devices that do not utilize SkyView Network are connected via serial port connections. Dynon devices that use serial ports include the SV-ADSB-470, SV-GPS-250, SV-XPNDR- 261/262, and various third-party devices. As serial devices are not part of the SkyView Network, they will not be seen on the list of devices seen as you configure SkyView Network above. Instead, configuring SkyView to communicate with SV-GPS-250 and SV-XPNDR- 261/262 is done via a more manual process in SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > SERIAL PORT SETUP.
10.If you have installed an SV-GPS-250, its SERIAL IN FUNCTION must be set to POS 1.
11.After you’ve configured SkyView Network, have properly configured any serial devices, exit the Setup Menu. Your SkyView display should now display EMS, PFD, and MAP. Map will not display without a GPS fix (the airplane symbol on the Map page will also flash with “?” if it does not have a GPS fix.
12.Your SkyView may require various updates such as system software, databases, and Sensor Definitions. See http://www.dynonavionics.com/docs/support_software_SkyView.html for more details on the updates available for SkyView. If you are a non-US customer, the display of aviation and obstacle data on your SkyView system requires a database purchase from Jeppesen or PocketFMS. Note that firmware on each SkyView display must be updated individually.
13.Common issues for setting up SkyView engine monitoring:
a.The configuration of sensors installed on SkyView at the factory is generic; therefore
“Red X’s” on the EMS for various sensors are normal until sensor configuration for your particular engine sensor configuration is complete.
b.The layout of which sensor “widgets” are shown on the screen, sizes, styles, etc. is completely configurable: SETUP > EMS SETUP > SCREEN LAYOUT EDITOR
14.Common issues for setting up SV-XPNDR-261/262:
a.Ensure that there is a valid tail number set (see above)
SkyView System Installation Guide – Revision S |
1-3 |
Introduction
b.Ensure that a valid HEX CODE is set: SETUP > TRANSPONDER SETUP > AIRCRAFT HEX CODE. A caution message – XPNDR HEX CODE NOT SET will appear if a transponder is configured in SkyView, but the HEX CODE is not set to a valid number.
c.Traffic will not be displayed unless you are in an area covered by an TIS radar site (US only)
15.Common issues for setting up Dynon Autopilot
a.Servos must be powered ON
b.Servos must be recognized on SkyView Network (above)
c.AIRSPEED LIMITATIONS must be set (at least one must be actively adjusted from the defaults) before the Autopilot can be configured: SETUP > PFD SETUP > AIRSPEED.
d.SERVO CALIBRATION must be performed: SETUP > HARDWARE CALIBRATION > SERVO CALIBRATION > CALIBRATION.
e.After SERVO CALIBRATION is successfully completed, AP status will now be displayed on the SkyView display top bar.

SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision S |
2. System Planning
Installers should read and understand this chapter before proceeding with physical installation. SkyView equipment installed contrary to the requirements outlined in this chapter may not operate within specifications.
The purpose of this chapter is to familiarize you with important SkyView system information and concepts including the following:
Operating specifications
Installation location requirements
SkyView systems
SkyView modules have environmental and location requirements that must be adhered to for specified operation. This chapter helps installers make informed decisions regarding suitable SkyView equipment locations in aircraft. It contains electrical, mechanical and environmental specifications, installation requirements, and other important guidelines and suggestions.
When SkyView components are used together, they are referred to as a SkyView system. This chapter also explains what a SkyView system is and how to build one.
SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision S |
2-1 |
System Planning
Power Consumption
Table 2 contains power specifications for typical SkyView systems. Note that SkyView displays (SV-D700, SV-D1000, SV-D1000T) provide power to SV-ADAHRS-200/201, SV-EMS-220/221, SV- ARINC-429, SV-KNOB-PANEL, the “control panel section” of SV-AP-PANEL, and the SV-GPS-250. Thus the individual power requirements of those units are not shown; their power requirements are included in the power requirements of the SkyView display(s). When there are two SkyView displays in a system, both displays “share the load” of powering SkyView
Network modules.

General System Installation Tips
Aircraft construction involves a variety of processes that create debris that can damage Dynon Avionics components. Metalwork, in particular, will produce metallic shavings and dust that may damage or destroy the electronics in Dynon Avionics products if they are contaminated with this debris. Care should be taken to ensure that Dynon Products are kept away from aircraft construction debris. Damaged caused by the introduction outside particulates will not be repaired under warranty.
Do not physically modify Dynon SkyView displays or modules in any way that is not specified in this manual. Damage caused to Dynon products due to physical modifications will not be repaired under warranty.
SkyView Can Be On During Engine Start
SkyView units incorporate robust power protection that allows them to be powered on during engine start for full engine monitoring. SkyView displays require a minimum of 10V, and during engine start, it’s common for the electrical system to temporarily drop below 10V. If an SV-BAT- 320 backup battery is not installed, SkyView may shut off / reboot. If you wish to monitor your engine prior to engine start, an SV-BAT-320 backup battery should be installed so that the SkyView display can switch to the SV-BAT-320 when its power inputs are not receiving at least 10V. The SkyView display will switch from SV-BAT-320 to ship’s power when its power inputs receive voltage above 10V.
Installing SkyView in an IFR-Equipped Aircraft
If you are equipping an aircraft that is capable of being flown in IFR/IMC conditions, Dynon Avionics makes the following recommendations:
The entirety of the instrument panel and supporting avionics systems and instrumentation should be designed so that the display of information essential for continued safe flight and landing will remain available to the pilot after any single failure or probable combination of failures. In other words, a usable "partial-panel" of primary flight instruments should be preserved in the event of the failure of a SkyView display, systems that support it, or other instruments in the aircraft.
This level of redundancy can be obtained in different ways. For example, one could utilize multiple SkyView displays (with SV-BAT-320 backup batteries attached) including multiple ADAHRS units connected to protect against the failure of any single display, ADAHRS, or the electrical system. Flight instrument redundancy could also be preserved by using other separate and independent systems such as the Dynon EFIS-D6. Some builders may elect to combine SkyView with other more conventional “steam” gauges such as mechanical airspeed, altitude, and attitude indicators.

SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision S |
System Planning
To protect against aircraft electrical failures and anomalies, Dynon Avionics STRONGLY RECOMMENDS that each SkyView display has an SV-BAT-320 Backup Battery connected to it.
SkyView’s attitude algorithm normally uses airspeed to provide superior accuracy. If a problem develops with your airspeed reading due to mechanical blockage of pitot, disconnection of pitot, or other pitot/static issues, a properly connected and configured GPS source acts as a substitute. Dynon SkyView systems typically have one or more GPS sources connected to enable Synthetic Vision and Mapping capabilities, but a primary and backup GPS connection is especially important to preserve the attitude indication in the event of loss of airspeed information in IFR aircraft.
In order to provide the most reliable airspeed (and therefore attitude) performance, Dynon Avionics STRONGLY RECOMMENDS the installation of a heated pitot probe in aircraft equipped for IFR to prevent loss of airspeed data due to icing.
Location Requirements
SV-D1000 and SV-D700
Observe the following guidelines when choosing a location for a SkyView display:
Displays require about 2.4” (61mm) of free space behind the panel, depending on mounting surface thickness.
The SkyView Display Harness (SV-HARNESS-D37) extends about 3” (76mm) from the back of the display.
Add one inch beyond the physically required volume for the display’s heat sinks and fans to operate.
Avoid placing the display near heater vents or any source of extremely hot air.
The display should be easily viewable without any obstructions.
Displays have no internal inertial sensors and do not need to be mounted in the same orientation as the ADAHRS or other modules.
Displays only support a landscape viewing orientation; do not mount in portrait orientation.
A SkyView system can include as many as three SkyView displays in any combination of SVD700, SV-D1000, or SV-D1000T.
Many customers choose to allow room for and install a “panel mount USB extension cable for each SkyView display. USB is used for installing firmware, databases, and electronic charts (for which the USB flash drive is semi-permanently connected). Thus if space allows, a panelmounted USB connector can be more convenient than accessing a harness tucked behind the panel. Such cables plug into the USB jacks on the back of the SkyView display.
Suitable cables can be found by searching on the Internet for “panel mount USB”.

System Planning
SV-ADAHRS-200 and SV-ADAHRS-201
Proper installation of the SV-ADAHRS-200/201 module(s) is critical. PFD performance is significantly linked to a proper ADAHRS installation. The installation location must meet all of the mechanical, magnetic, orientation, and environmental requirements detailed below.
An SV-ADAHRS-200/201 installation location should be a rigid surface within 12 feet longitudinally and 6 feet laterally of the aircraft's center-of-gravity. Figure 1 illustrates this criterion.
Figure 1 – SV-ADAHRS-200/201 with Respect to Center-of-Gravity
The location should also be magnetically benign. Given that it may be difficult or impossible to avoid all sources of magnetic interference, it is possible to characterize and compensate for small, static magnetic fields with calibration. Calibration cannot, however, compensate for
