    Avoid placing the instrument near heater vents or any source of extremely hot or cold air. Keep in mind that the air surrounding the EFIS-D100 during operation may be no warmer than 50 C. Plan a panel location that allows convenient viewing of the instrument with no obstruction.

    If you purchased Dynon’s AOA pitot tube, note that it has pitot and AOA ports on it, but not static. You will need to provide your own source of static pressure for the EFIS-D100 and any other instrument in your panel which requires it.

  • Page 27: Efis Calibration And Configuration

    To account for your individual preferences and your aircraft’s particular setup, there are a few simple calibration and configuration steps that you must complete before using your EFIS-D100. This section takes you through these steps to make sure that you have properly installed and configured your EFIS-D100.
  • Page 28 EFIS Calibration and Configuration SETTING MAGNETIC INCLINATION ANGLE AND INTENSITY (REQUIRED) To calibrate your EFIS-D100 heading, you must input your location’s current magnetic inclination angle and intensity. Before doing this, you must obtain these two values for the geographic location where you will be performing the calibration. Note that this procedure only needs to be done once, prior to magnetic calibration.
  • Page 29 EFIS-D100 (i.e., you see the heading tape displayed on the EFIS main page), and have located a suitable place to perform the calibration, perform the following steps: 1. Turn on the EFIS-D100 and allow it to warm up for at least 15 minutes before performing the calibration.

    Another important concept is that of the Bus Master. A DSAB-connected network must have at least one EFIS-based product (EFIS-D10A, EFIS-D100, or FlightDEK-D180), and only an EFIS- based product can be assigned the Bus Master role. The Bus Master is the instrument which manages communication on the network.

    Dynon Avionics’ Autopilot (AP) system is a competitively priced product for the Experimental & Light Sport Aircraft (LSA) aircraft market. Unlike standalone AP systems, Dynon’s AP is an enhancement to the Dynon Avionics EFIS-D10A, EFIS-D100, and FlightDEK-D180 products (beginning with firmware version 5.0). The Dynon Avionics AP provides roll (aileron) and/or pitch (elevator) control, leveraging the proven sensors, algorithms, and display systems of Dynon’s modern EFIS products.
