12.2.6 Dynon SkyView system
Dynon SkyView system is the next generation of glass panel avionics for light sport aircraft.
The system architecture is shown on Fig. 12-23.
The SV-D1000 and SV-HDX1100 displays are very bright, high-resolution screens and contain
the main control CPU, graphics processor, and terrain data-base. Displays can act as a
Primary Flight Display (PFD) with Synthetic Vision, an Engine Monitoring System (EMS), and
a Moving Map in a variety of customizable screen layouts.
The most used functions are accessed via two rotary/multi-direction joysticks. Almost all other
in flight commands are all available via eight buttons. SV-HDX1100 also have touchscreen
display.
Every SkyView system display and module is connected by two independent power and data
buses. The failure of any bus connection or module results in automatic fail-over to a working
bus or module.
Two SV-BAT-320 Backup Batteries provides over an hour of backup power to displays and
modules.
