Encoder Serial-to-Gray Code Converter Installation and Configuration
This section guides you through the installation of Dynon’s Encoder Converter (Dynon P/N
100362-000). The Encoder Converter is an electronic device that receives the serial encoder
data from a SkyView display and outputs standard Mode-C parallel Gray code into your Mode-C
transponder.
This Encoder Converter requires data from a SkyView display and is not to be
confused with other standalone encoders available on the market. The Encoder
Converter does not output an encoder strobe signal.
The Encoder Converter is designed to be powered off voltages between 10 and 30 volts DC.
Tools and Equipment
The following parts are not included with your Encoder Converter purchase but may be
necessary to complete the installation.

Wire cutters

Connector crimp tool

Crimp pins

SkyView Display Harness (SV-HARNESS-D37)

Connector to mate with Gray code transponder
Electrical Installation
The following sections describe the wiring requirements for using the Encoder Converter. Please
follow these instructions explicitly as improper wiring can result in permanent damage to your unit.
Recommended Wire Practices
Use correct splicing techniques for all electrical connections, taking care to properly
insulate any exposed wire. A short circuit between any of the wires may cause
damage to the Encoder.
The wire used in construction of your Encoder Converter is 22 AWG avionics grade Tefzel wire,
which meets Mil Standard MIL-W-22759/16.
Make sure all connections are secure and all wires are routed and strain relieved
to ensure that the wires will not chafe against any other object in the aircraft.
Transponder Wiring
Wire the Encoder Converter signals to their respective connections on your Mode-C
transponder according to Table 54. Mode-C transponder pin-outs vary from device to device. To
find the correct pin-out, look at the manual for your transponder or contact its manufacturer.
The table below details which color wire should be connected to each Transponder pin. All of
