Technical Support / Re: help connecting to Dynon skyview

« on: September 05, 2017, 09:51:00 am »

Ive given up with the PA - Dyon connectivity.  Even when working the display is no where near as readable as the ipad Skydemon setup.

I run my ipad connected to the PA and i share the flight plan with my iphone over airdrop and then have the iphone connected to the Dynon systema nd sent it over the Dynin wifi. that way i have 2 independent GPS crosschecking location.

Only issue is the SD shows loss of internet connectivity pop ups unless i set connectivity to offline.

I flew 6 legs yeardays, 5 there were no issues, on one leg the old behaviour occurred. It seemed to be bearingless targets that caused the hiccup.

Still seemed a big improvement. that said, there wasnt a lot of traffic about.

Thanks Lee for attempting to resolve this.

Great news on the update, thxs for sorting Lee.

I'Ve updated my PA this morning via USB, no glitches in the process. I will hopefully fly tomorrow and will report back.

Ive flown another 15 hours since last posting including a trip around Paris. Most of the time the PA is stable although every few flights i'm getting the PA dropping the serial feed to the PA. the Pa is stil lworkign as im getting audio alerts. It seems to never be the first flight of the day, could it be a heating issue affecting the serial out? > Its also not related to traffic density. It appears to drop out at times when there is no traffic around. And a few seconds later it re establishes the data link.

Technical Support / Serial Link drops when no traffic

I am confident that the issue is unrelated to skydemon, but would like this confirmed

Thx
Lee

Lee im having a similar issue with PA dropping out through the serial link to my Dynon Skyview. The PA is still working as im getting  audio alerts. I did post a few weeks back about this issue and we thought it was traffic saturation. Having flown a few more weeks, it drops out when there is no traffic around.

Actually, I'm pretty unimpressed with the SV traffic display.  It shows them in the EFIS irrespective of their range.  So I get ADSB targets showing that are 30 miles away.  As much use as a chocolate fireguard.  And no bearingless targets when that is the majority of the threat out there.  So I'm a bit down on my SV traffic display...

I agree 100% - im using mainly the audio alerts

may get a second ipad to show the radar view although i think the next version of SD may have a pop up display

Lee

im running the latest version - 15.0

Now i think of it I wonder if the behaviour started after the upgrade which was only a couple of weeks ago?

+1 on the ground loop isolator

Had some noise from the strobes and the isolator cured it

Here is Dynon's reply:

Currently, it does not. We are looking into adding it in a future release.

Further update

some flights the PA works through the SV perfectly, other flights it acts up and as soon as the SV announces Traffic, the SV then alerts traffic failure and then a moment later picks up the signal again and works and repeats this each time a traffic alter is announced.

Seems like the first flight of the day is fine then the second return flight to base does this - could it be a heat issue?

Thanks Lee -so lowering the baud rate will make matters even worse?

What you say makes sense, i think when it was a bearingless target it didn't drop out, when the data contained more info, the PA gave the full audio alert with distance and direction and  the SV cutout

Can you send the fix or shall i wait for the next update?

First time i flew with PA working through the SV, everything worked fine.

Second and third flights, each time a traffic alert was announced via the SV, the SV then announced it had lost the FLARM signal and all contacts would vanish.  A few seconds later the system would reconnect to the serial data, and then again the moment it announced "traffic" the same thing would happen.

The PA is still working fine as i was receiving audio alerts and I checked the PA via the wifi webpage and all was good.

I thought it may be a loose contact so rechecked these on landing - and they were fine.

Ive changed the baud settings on both the PA and the SV from 56,000 to 9,600. Ive yet to test this configuration.

any other suggestions?
