Bil,
The SkyView fans are on a thermostat, since in most cases they are not needed. The fins on the back are designed to keep the display cool in normal conditions, and the fans just assist when things get hot. There are two fans only for redundancy. When you first power-on the SkyView display they will spin for a couple of seconds, as a test.

Skyview Communication Question
The orange wire on Pin 5, labeled as the EMS Auxiliary voltage for the 9 Pin D sub is missing from the Adahars Wire bundle as supplied by Vans
It is part of the Fuselage 046 bundle.
Is it needed, all of the other 9 Pin cables have it installed?

This is the reponse from Dynon Support.
"We're not experts on the wiring Vans created for the RV-12, but this wire does not need to make it's way to any module except the EMS, so it sounds lie it's fine. "

ES 9 PIN BACKSHELL 2

The plans say it has short screws, and long screw versions interfere with the magnetometer. It is not in the Skyview parts kits or on any of the bag lists. Not provided in any of the earlier kits.
Jerry - did you get this? If so in which bag is it listed on for you?
Plans Page 42D-13
Steps 3 and 4 require
PT 1/4 OD TUBE
to be cut in 15 inch and 33 inch lengths.
This tube is not included, but I had enough left over from previous parts of the build to make it.
No PANEL FUSES were supplied in my Skyview Kit nor were they on any parts list or bag lists.

Bill - What was the resolution to the ES 9 PIN BACKSHELL 2 omission?
For those of you getting ready to drill the new mounting holes - Add clecos as you drill because the template has a tendancy to drift slightly if there are only a couple of clecos installed. Not much but enough to get the holes a little bit out of alignment.

They are sending my backshell with the "intercom revision adapter harness." They received those harnesses last Thursday Mar 15th, and know to send them out to a bunch of us Skyview-converters. Now, I told them about my missing backshell but I do NOT know if they know that is a generic omission for all of us Skyview converters. They do know it is a "special" backshell (the screws are "slightly less magnetic" whatever that means.) I think they know it is a generic omission but it couldn't hurt to send them an email and ask.

Where (plans page) are you seeing a callout for an orange wire?
Lets be precise here - this reply (and most of the contents of this whole thread) is based on a CONVERSION harness applied to an RV-12 that had already installed the earlier harness supplied.
Vans is (I think) now shipping the finish kit with a DIFFERENT harness. I do not have the revised plans for the finish section nor know the details of that harness.
Page 42D-21 does not show an orange wire going into the ADAHRs DB9. My conversion harness DB9 wiring was exactly per page 42D-21.

We have installed the 046 Harness part of the subkit 5.
We have purchased a Sky View system for Stein Aviation. The Skyview communication harness's all have a Orange wire in the Bundle Specificaly allocated to the EMS system. It is not needed for the ADAHRs LRU as replied to by Dyanon.

In my d-shell connectors, I have one grey-colored, instead of the usual black-colored shell which does NOT have the long pins on it...is this the creature you might be looking for?

I do not know what it looks like. The label on the bag - it it was still in the bag - Would have "Backshell 2" rather than just "Backshell" on it. When I get mine I'll post it - good idea!
