All AF-5000 systems are now shipping with support for the Dynon Skyview network. We replaced the original CAN Buss interface with the dual path Skyview Network. Unlike the single path CAN Buss the Skyview network has two separate data and power paths. The Skyview Network is constantly switching data between Buss1 and Buss2 and will automatically switch all data to the working Buss in the case of a wire or network failure. The Skyview Network also continuously checks for shorts and breaks in the Network power path. If a power short is detected the power output will be turned off leaving the second power source to power the network devices.
We are also now shipping all three AF-5000 EFIS screen sizes (8.4", 10.4", 12.1") with the optional touch screen. We have been flying our RV-10 for over 200 hours with the new AF-5000T touch screens and they are really awesome. The touch screen makes our already superior user interface even better. When it is really bumpy you still have all the standard buttons and knobs that can be used to do anything that the touch interface is used for. For most flights the touch screen provides a superior interface for quick access to the Transponder, Radio, Bugs, and Map screens.
