Dynon Skyview Battery Test

[Tom Clary]

Hi All,

 

I have tried to get 43TC's Dynon to go into battery test for a couple of years now.

What I learn from Jim was that I needed to fly for an hour and a half that then try.  No luck. 

Finally, I ask our mechanic (Scott Zumwalt) to look into it. 

He first tried to charge both batteries and then run the test.  No luck. 

At that point he called Dynon.  Dynon told him that they had just discovered another reason why the unit would not go into test.

Apparently the unit will not go into test if it thinks the plane is moving. The solution was to go into setup and recalibrate the airspeed to zero.  It worked!

Not sure if anyone else has run into this, it was a new one on Scott.
