Over the past 18 months I've been piecing together my Dynon system from Aircraft Spruce. One of the parts I ordered was the SV-NET-15CP, a 15 foot premade 9 pin cable that has pins only on one end that you can run through conduit holes, then put into the DSUB connector after its in place.
A few weeks ago as I was firing everything up for the first time I went to finish that cable, but I couldn't find the color code info as to which pin was which. The other end is in the rear of the plane and hard to reach, so I wasn't looking to Ohm it out if I could help it. I was unable to find any reference in the Dynon manual as to the wiring color code.
So, I called Dynon support, who pointed me to the manual, and a specific page. I told him the colors on my wires don't match the colors in the manual. He said if they didn't match, what I had wasn't a Dynon cable. That's shocking, because I still have the invoice right here from Spruce! And the cable says "Skyview Network 15'".
I forwarded pics upon request to Dynon Support, but didn't hear back. So yesterday I re-pinged them. The best I've gotten is that they don't make any cable with the colors of wires I have in the picture.
I was able to Ohm out the cable, and it works fine as part of my Skyview network, but...buyer beware if you've bought cables from Aircraft Spruce like I did.
