ROLL/PITCH

SERVO

 Roll Servo and Pitch Servo functions are automatically detected and

assigned during Autopilot Servo Calibration process. See: EFIS > SETUP

> AP > SERVO CALIB.

 More than two SV32s or SV42s is not a supported configuration.

If the configuration process could not automatically assign the EMS and OAT roles (because

there are 2 or more of either type found on the network), it prompts you to assign each of them to

the instrument of your choice. It then presents a list of all instruments on the network capable of

being assigned each role. Use the DOWN▼ and UP▲ buttons to select the preferred instrument

to provide the given role. The serial number for each unit is displayed next to its product type.

Additionally, with an instrument type selected, pressing IDENT changes that instrument’s

display to a black screen with the text DSAB IDENT shown. If the instrument you wish to

identify is the one which you are currently interacting with, the line changes to read THIS UNIT.

When you have selected the preferred provider for the role, press SELECT to continue in the

process. If necessary, repeat with the next manually assigned role.

At this point, a screen is displayed, stating:

(X) DEVICES FOUND

NETWORK CONFIGURATION IS COMPLETE

Press FINISH to end the configuration. Press UP▲ and SEL► to view the status of all

connected DSAB devices. Press UP▲ or DOWN▼ to scroll through all the devices. Cross-

check the displayed devices against what you actually have installed and connected. Ensure that

the STATUS for each device is listed as ACTIVE.

You may repeat the configuration process as many times as you wish. Whenever you add or

remove an instrument from your network, you must redo the DSAB configuration process.

Note that the following DSAB configurations are not supported:

 More than 1 FlightDEK-D180 in the network

 More than 1 HS34 in the network

 More than 1 AP74 in the network

 More than 2 servos in the network

Brightness Configuration

In a DSAB network, changing the brightness level of one instrument affects all connected

instruments. Dynon Avionics sells D100-series instruments with both regular and bright screens.

Each instrument connected to your DSAB network must have its display type configured to

ensure that perceived brightness matches across all screens. To do this, enter the SETUP >

DSAB > BRIGHTNESS menu on each product in the system. If you purchased the bright screen

option for your FlightDEK-D180, press TOGGLE to change the BRIGHT SCREEN status to

YES. Otherwise, ensure this is set to NO.

If the DIM setting of one of the screens in a DSAB network gets “out of sync” (some

dim, some bright), this can be corrected by adjusting the DSAB Bus Master screen to the

desired DIM and then performing a DSAB CONFIGURE.
