1 Introduction

Advanced Flight Systems manufactures different size EFIS Displays. The AF-6600 and AF-5600 use a 10.4" display, the

AF-5700 and AF-5800 use a 12.1" display and the AF-5400 and AF-5500 use an 8.4” LCD display. All models are high

resolution LED backlit screens that provide the high intensity brightness during the day and very low intensity brightness

at night. All EFIS Displays have a Touch Screen

that adds flexibility, capability, and a more intuitive

user experience. Synthetic Vision is a standard

feature on the EFIS screens. The AF-6600 has a

flush mount LCD with a dual concentric encoder and

light sensor for automatic dimming. Each EFIS

display has five (5) RS-232 serial ports used for

interfacing to external devices, two (2) USB ports,

Ethernet port, and a SV Network connection.

All EFIS screens have a built in Dynon SV-

Network connection and are compatible with all

the Dynon remote components.

Options include: Advanced Control Module (ACM)

with plug-and-play features to vastly simplify an

aircraft’s electrical system and wiring, AOA,

Autopilot, backup GPS, ARINC adapter, Com

1 INSTALLATION PLANNING

This section will provide an overview of the electrical interconnect wiring and mechanical components needed to install

an AF-6600 or AF-5000 based system. It is recommended that you become familiar with this section before starting the

actual installation in the aircraft.

1.1 System Architecture

A complete AF-6600 / AF-5000 based avionics system will have multiple components that are all connected together to

share data and in some cases electrical power. Some of the components will be mounted in the instrument panel and

some will be remote mounted,in some cases AFS offers a remote or panel mounted version. The PMA450 Audio Panel

or SV-COM-T25 radio have a remote or panel mounted option. When you install avionics in an aircraft you will need to

wire to an avionics power bus with circuit protection and connect to different types of data buses so all the equipment can

talk with each other. There are five different data buses that are commonly used in aircraft. Properly planning and wiring

all the equipment can be time consuming and complicated.

1.2 Avionics Power Bus

Most aircraft have an Avionics Power Bus that is connected to the aircraft Main Power Bus with a high current relay. The

avionics bus relay is controlled by a panel mounted AVIONICS switch. The Pilot side EFIS PFD should be wired to the

aircraft Main Power Bus so it can display engine data during an engine start. Once the engine and alternator are running

switching on the panel mounted AVIONICS switch will power the rest of the avionics.

1.3 Avionics Data Buses

Depending on the components you are planning to install in the aircraft you will need to wire two to five different avionics

data buses. The AF-6600 / AF-5000 has five RS-232 serial ports, a Dynon SV-Network connection and Ethernet

connection. If you are installing a GPS Navigator (IFD440,IFD540, IFD-550, GTN-650or GTN-750) you will need to use

an ARINC-429 to SV-Network converter so the EFIS can send and receive data from the Navigator. The Dynon SV-

ARINC-429 module or Advanced Control Module (ACM-ECB) is designed to interface to a Navigator’s ARINC-429 data

buses. The following is a brief description of each of the Data Buses and their uses:

Dynon Advanced SV-Network

The Dynon proprietary SV-Network is a parallel multidrop differential pair network with +8 volt power wires. The SV-

Network is designed to support up to 12 components using a 9-conductor cable with standard dsub 9 pin connectors.

The SV-Network was designed for redundancy and has two separate power, ground, and twisted pair data lines. The

spare 9th wire is used to provide power to the SV-EMS-220 module for a connected fuel flow transducer. Most of the

Dynon components connect to the SV-Network to talk to the EFIS screens.

RS-232 Serial Data

Many aviation components use a RS-232 serial connection to share data. A RS-232 connection has a single transmit

wire (labeled TX or TXD) and a single receive wire (labeled RX or RXD). RS-232 was really designed for only two

devices to share data between them. You can have a limited number of devices receive data from a single transmitter,

you should never have two transmitters on the same connection. One thing that seems to confuse people new to wiring

is you need to connect the TX wire on one component to the RX wire on the other component.

ARINC-429

ARINC-429 is a data transfer standard for aircraft avionics. The physical connection wires are on twisted pairs (Tx and

Rx are on separate ports). A single wire pair is limited to one transmitter and no more than 20 receivers. If you are

installing a certified NAV-COM-GPS (IFD-440, IFD540, IFD-550, GTN-650, GTN-750, GPS-175, GNS-430W) you will

need to wire ARINC-429 data connections. Just like RS-232 you need to connect the TX wires on one component to the

RX wires on the other component.

Version 16.10 AF-6600 AF-5000 Series Install Manual 13

Ethernet

The AF-6600 / AF-5000 EFIS screens have an 8 Pin RJ45 female Ethernet connector. The Ethernet network is used to

share high speed data between the EFIS screens and to also get data from the optional XM weather module. The EFIS

is designed to use a standard non-crossover Ethernet cable. If you only have two EFIS screens in the aircraft panel you

can use a single Ethernet cable to connect the screens together. If you have a three EFIS screen panel or have the XM

Weather module you will need to use an Ethernet Switch/Hub.

CAN Bus

The Controller Area Network (CAN bus) is designed to allow devices to communicate over a twisted pair of 120 ohm

wires. The Dynon SV-EMS-221 engine module is designed to interface the AF-6600 / AF-5000 EFIS to an engine

FADEC controller that uses a CAN bus interface.

Version 16.10 AF-6600 AF-5000 Series Install Manual 15

1.4 EFIS Display Mounting and Connections

The EFIS Display should be mounted from the front of the instrument panel with four 6-32 screws in the

bezel corners. For ease of service the panel should have 6-32 PEM nuts or plate nuts installed for mounting

the EFIS screens.

1.5 System Block Diagram

The following tasks/steps should be followed to successfully install an AF-6600 / AF-5000

based system in the aircraft. Detailed information of installation, calibration, component

wiring… is found in sections of this manual.

1. System Block Diagram

The first thing you should do is make a block diagram of all the components that will be connected in

the aircraft. The block diagram should include all the EFIS screens, Radios, GPS units, Transponder,

AP, and ADS-B Receiver. The block diagram should clearly indicate where each EFIS screen’s serial

ports will be connected to each piece of equipment.

EFIS RS-232 Serial Port Planning

Each AF-6600 or AF-5000 EFIS has Qty (5) RS-232 serial ports.

Serial Port #4

GPS-250

The following requirements should be followed:

•A GPS Navigator (IFD540, IFD440, GTN650, GTN750) will need an SV-ARINC-429 module

•The Transponder should be wired to a PFD RV-232 Serial Port

•If the aircraft has two Nav radios each one should be wired to a different screen for backup

reliability.

•If the aircraft has two GPS units each one should be wired to a different screen for backup

reliability.

•You can’t have XM and ADS-B weather with a single screen system.

2. Advanced Skyview Network Planning

Most of the AFS - Dynon components communicate using our proprietary SV-Network. The SV-Network

provides a primary and backup +8 Volt power source and a primary (A) and backup (B) two wire network

for the remote devices. The SV-Network is designed to use 9 pin DSUB connectors and a special 9

conductor cable. The AFS-Dynon components all use a 9 Pin DSUB connector with male pins. The SV-

NET harnesses all use a 9 pin DSUB connector with female pins. The SV-Network is designed to be a

parallel network that does not require any special terminations. As long as all components are

connected together in a single network they should communicate. Some of the Dynon components

have two SV-Network connectors so you can continue the network connection to the next device. You

can use multiple Dynon 5 port hubs connected if you need more ports.

SV-NET CABLE

•The following devices should be connected to the SV-Network using the standard SV-NET

cables: AF-6600, AF-5000 , SV-ADAHRS-200, SV-ADAHRS-221, SV-AP-PANEL, SV-KNOB-

PANEL, ACM-ECB, SV-COM-RADIO, SV-ARINC-429

Version 16.10 AF-6600 AF-5000 Series Install Manual 18

•The SV-EMS-220 or SV-EMS-221 require a special SV-NET cable with a jumper on the SV-

EMS end of the cable to power the fuel flow transducer.

•The Dynon Autopilot servos connect to only the SV-Network data pins and will use a dedicated

fused +12V power connection.

3. Component Locating and Mounting

Find convenient mounting locations for all the components: EFIS Screens, ADAHRS, Transponder,

ADS-B… keeping in mind that they might need to be removed for service after the aircraft is finished.

The EFIS screens should be mounted from the front of the panel using the supplied 6-32 screws. It is

highly recommended that you use 6-32 PEM or Nut Plates for screen mounting to the instrument panel.

4. Component Power and Ground Wiring

Connect each EFIS screen and component to a separate properly sized fuse or circuit breaker. Each

EFIS screen MUST have the backup power wired to a backup battery or fused direct aircraft battery

connection. All EFIS screens and components should be wired to a good ground connection.

5. Screen RS-232 Serial Port Wiring

Using your block diagram wire the EFIS Screen(s) serial ports to the external equipment.

6. Screen Digital Inputs and Output wiring
