SV-D1000 / SV-D700 Display Scenario 3: When other display is part of a multi-display
system in the aircraft, and the documentation furnished with the repaired unit
indicates that the display was shipped “like new”
1. Your repaired display will have the latest version of SkyView software on it. All displays
in the aircraft must be on the same SkyView software version. Therefore, before doing
anything with the repaired display, confirm that your OTHER (still installed) SkyView
displays are running the latest system software by comparing the version available at
with the version that is listed in SETUP MENU >
LOCAL DISPLAY SETUP > DISPLAY HARDWARE INFORMATION. If the version displayed
here does not match what is available on the web site, update these displays to the
most current version of firmware before proceeding further. Instructions for updating
your displays can be found in the Firmware Updates and File Operations section of this
manual.
a. If you have to update SkyView System Software, look through all the settings in
the SETUP MENU after the update, as there may be some new options. Use the
Revision History at the beginning of the SkyView System Installation Guide to
help determine what has changed between versions.
2. Reinstall the repaired display, reconnecting all harnesses and connections as originally
installed.
3. Power up the entire SkyView System (all displays, modules, servos, etc.).
4. From the display that never left the airplane, save your settings files to a USB flash drive
by using SETUP MENU > EXPORT SETTINGS …
5. Move this USB flash drive to the repaired display, and load both the .dfg and .sfg files
that were created on the USB flash drive by using SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SOFTWARE >
LOAD FILES…
6. Set the tail number of the repaired display (SYSTEM SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION)
to DYNON.
7. Going back to a display that never left the aircraft, which is configured properly and
working correctly:
It is important that the following steps are done from a display which has
remained in the aircraft, and NEVER the newly repaired display. If network
configuration is done from the repaired display, it is possible for it to overwrite the
correct settings that are stored in your good display with the Dynon default
factory settings.
a. On the display that stayed in the plane, confirm that the tail number under
SYSTEM SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION is set to the actual aircraft tail
number, not DYNON.
b. On the display that stayed in the plane, reconfigure SkyView Network under
SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > NETWORK SETUP > CONFIGURE…
c. Confirm all SkyView Network components are found, including ALL displays that
are in the aircraft.
d. Exit Setup mode.
