shunt. Slide the ring terminals onto them and screw them back into the base. Connect the
“Amps High” lead to the side of the shunt marked by “H” in Figure 43; connect the “Amps Low”
lead to the side marked by “L”.
If you find that the current reading on the SkyView is the opposite polarity of what you want,
swap the two signal inputs (Amps High and Amps Low) to obtain the desired result.
It is extremely important that you secure all loose wires and ensure that exposed
terminals cannot touch or short out to other objects in the plane. All metal on the
shunt is at the same voltage as–and carries the same risks as–the positive terminal
on the battery. Improperly installing the ammeter shunt can result in high current
flow, electrical system failure, or fire.
GRT CS-01 Hall Effect Current Sensor
Dynon does not supply this sensor. It is available from GRT Avionics, and can be used as an
alternative to the Dynon-supplied amps shunt for measuring current
Note: The GRT CS-01 sensor does not connect to Pin 24/25 (Amps Shunt +/- Input). If you are
converting from a Dynon EMS, you will have to change your wiring per the instructions below).
Route the main power cable through the CS-01 "donut". Connect the three CS-01 Wires to the
SV-EMS-220/221 37-pin connector:

The CS-01 has some special considerations during setup. Configure the CS-01 using the
following instructions:
Go to SETUP MENU >EMS SETUP > SENSOR INPUT MAPPING. Choose one of Pins 8, 22, 23,
or 31, as is physically connected above.
For the “FUNCTION” column selection, choose “AMP”
For the “SENSOR” column selection, choose one of the AMMETER HALL EFF (offset value)
(GRT CS-01), where offset value is chosen per the following:
