SD-Link now also for Dynon SV-COM radios.

SD-Link Dynon SV-COM Adapter

We are pleased to be able to close another gap in the SD-Link portfolio:

The SD-SV-COM is now available as a suitable Bluetooth Low Energy adapter for Dynon SV-COM radios .

The adapter connects your Dynon SV-COM radio to navigation apps such as SkyDemon , Sky-Map , VFRnav , or easyVFR . Frequencies can then be transferred directly from the navigation app to the radio – conveniently, quickly, and without manual input on the radio.

Practical test in flight: Frequency transmission to Dynon SV-COM

The following video shows the frequency transfer in flight: A frequency is selected in SkyDemon and then transferred to the Dynon SV-COM system. Another frequency change demonstrates the successful takeover.

Installation is carried out with the usual SD-Link plug-and-play quality: The adapter is simply plugged in between the existing cabling and the Dynon SV-COM system. No additional power supply is required.

The adapter requires the use of a Dynon™ SV-COM-PANEL to operate the radio. It is designed for use with Dynon SV-COM systems such as the SV-COM-425 , SV-COM-760 , SV-COM- T83 , SV-COM-T25 , SV-COM-X25 , and SV-COM-X83 , provided they are controlled via an SV-COM-PANEL.

An existing Dynon SkyView™ HDX system is seamlessly integrated. No additional electrical or mechanical work is required.

The “GENERIC” adapter is now called “SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter for SkyDemon”

We are often asked what the current SkyDemon Bluetooth “GENERIC” adapter thought is.
After receiving a lot of feedback, we realized that the name “GENERIC” was not the best choice. Therefore, we decided to rename the adapter to SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter for SkyDemon to rename.

The new name better describes what the adapter can do: a universal solution for various applications – flexible, compact and reliable.

What is the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter?

The SkyDemon Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter is comparable to other SkyDemon Bluetooth adapters on the market, but it is not designed for a specific radio . Instead, it offers a universal solution for a wide variety of radios and avionics systems.

Basic functions of the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 adapter:

  • Bidirectional Bluetooth V4.0 BLE module
  • V24 level adjustment
  • Power Supply: 5-28V

What the adapter does not offer:

  • No specific adaptation to the radio connector layout
  • No forwarding of internal radio connections
  • No input or output of additional RS232 data

Comparison of the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter

The SD-UNIVERSAL-E is comparable in functionality to the IRXON BT578 (or derivatives) – but with a more compact design and an extended operating voltage range.

You can use the adapter for all supported SkyDemon radios and autopilots – with manual wiring.

Attention: For the Becker AR620X is the adapter not suitable!

For this purpose, we have the specially developed SD-AR620X-E.

The best for last:

The pin assignment of the SD-UNIVERSAL-E corresponds to the remote connector of the funke ATR833S, ATR833-II and ATR833A-II.

Even the old ATR833 with +12 V on the remote connector works.

This means: Plug-and-Play-Solution for these devices!

The remote connector is available in the following Funke wiring harnesses include:

  • BSKS833S-S
  • BSKS833D-S
  • BSKS833OE-S
  • BSKS833GLS-S
  • BSKS833GLD-S

And if you choose the version with Conec Snap-Lock, the module fits exactly into the prepared socket – without the use of screws.
