SV-EMS-220/221 Installation and Configuration

SkyView System Installation Guide – Revision S

7-63

SkyView display using the instruction found the How to Load and Delete Files Section. Then
update or modify the sensor map and settings based on your installation.

Note that it is critical that you should check every setting before operating your engine with
them as these files are only a starting point.
While efforts were made to set up temperature,
pressure, and other ranges to reasonable starting points, Dynon makes no claim that they are
correct for your engine, as slightly different engines may have different limits.

Use this section as a guide when you review and update the sensor map and settings that were
sourced from the preconfigured file. Also use this section if you are creating a sensor map and
settings from scratch.

EMS Sensor Mapping Explanation

The SkyView system must be configured to map SV-EMS-220/221 pin numbers to physical
sensors. This section contains an explanation of what it means to define a sensor for mapping
purposes and also contains instructions on how to map sensors mentioned in this chapter to
pins on the SV-EMS-220/221. Mapping can be accomplished using two methods: you can use a
premade file as mentioned above or you can manually map engine sensors to EMS module pins.

All sensors and transducers are mapped in the Sensor Input Mapping Wizard. As mentioned
earlier, some pins are compatible with a variety of sensors, while other pins have fixed
functionality. A sensor is defined in the Sensor Input Mapping Wizard by the following
parameters:

Pin #–the pin or set of pins the sensor is connected to

Function–the phenomenon the sensor measures (e.g., pressure and temperature)

Sensor–the physical part used, for example 0-80 PSI Fluid Pressure (100411-001)

Name–a six character field that names the sensor for use by the pilot in flight.

Loading a premade sensor mapping file onto SkyView can save installation time.
These files define sensors with the four parameters mentioned.

Table 44 shows an example oil pressure sensor map on pin 6 of the SV-EMS-220/221 D37
connector.

Manual Sensor Mapping

Appendix D: SV-EMS-220/221 Sensor Input Mapping Worksheet is a useful tool
during sensor mapping. This section is intended for use only if the premade sensor
mapping file does not contain the sensor definitions needed for your installation.

Go to the Sensor Input Mapping Wizard (SETUP MENU > EMS SETUP > SENSOR INPUT
MAPPING…) and use the following procedure to manually map a sensor or transducer:
