NOTE: There are three paths to choose from when upgrading the wiring: NOTE: This section will require crimping of several open barreled crimps. Please read chapter 5W Open Barrel Crimp before continuing. Conversion Harnesses) This update kit supplies the conversion harnesses necessary for an easy transition to SkyView. Simply plug the harnesses into the existing harnesses in your kit and after routing a few new wires included in these harnesses your wiring will be updated. ES HST-3/16X1' shall be referred to as heat shrink for the remainder of this document. Pin Swaps) Use the PDF posted at www.vansaircraft.com/..... to convert your own harnesses pin by pin. Van's Aircraft does not recommend this option as there are many chances of error. Van's Aircraft will not be held responsible for any errors made using this method and also reserves the right to provide limited or no technical support for this method...you are on your own! Harness Equivalents Harness Replacement) As a more expensive and time consuming option the wiring harnesses and plans from Section 31B may be purchased from the Finish Kit. This option would replace all the wiring in the fuselage of the aircraft. Q: Will I lose any functionality with the conversion harnesses or pin swaps versus harness replacement? A: Your functionality will be slightly different, read below. 1) The headphone jack was grounded to the seat pan. In the new SkyView system both headphone and mic jacks have been isolated with their grounds going back to the AV-50000A RV-12 Control Module. This change will have no affect on system performance if your system was working correctly already using the old configuration. For the remainder of this section figures may not always be given in conjunction with the text. Use other sections in your manual such as Sections 31,40,42,43,44 and 45 for figures to help understand the text. The following list lists equivalents to new updated SkyView harnesses. This reference information will be useful when completing Section 42C. WH-RV12-TUNNEL + WH-00036 = WH-00046 WH-RV12-OPTIONAL + WH-00026 = WH-00045 & WH-00025 (SEE BELOW) WH-RV12-FLIGHTCOM403 + WH-00042 = WH-00027 WH-RV12-TX-ANT + WH-00055 = WH-00050 WH-RV12-SL40-ANT = WH-00051 WH-RV12-OAT + WH-00008 = WH-00060 AV AV-17 = AV-00008 The WH-00026 Option Conversion Harness combines both the WH-00045 Options Harness and WH-00025 SkyView AutoPilot Harnesses into one harness that make the same two connections to the AV-50000A RV-12 Control Module. When asked in Section 42C to install either the options or autopilot harnesses simply install the appropriately labeled harness on the WH-00025 instead. 2) The Aux Music Jack (see Page 31-10) will not be upgraded from a TRS jack to a TRRS jack. The letters stand for tip, ring and sleeve. The extra ring on the new jack may be used to remotely control devices connected to the jack such as a compatible smart phone or music player. For further information see Section 42C and 31B.

NOTE: Steps on this page are for builders who have completed the powerplant kit installation ahead of the avionics kit and builders with flying aircraft. Step 1: Leave the WH-P149 (WHT) Battery Ground Cable disconnected from the negative battery ground cable until section 42C is complete then reinstall the cable as shown on Page 45-03, Figure 3. Step 2: Re-install the Choke Cable, Throttle Cable and Cabin Heat Cable in the reverse order that they were removed. See Page 42D-02, Steps 18 through 25. AV-50000A Step 3: Rebalance the carburetors on the Rotax engine. Step 4: Update the hobbs time on the SkyView EFIS system to match the hobbs time from the D-180. CAUTION: Do not un-plug or plug in any connector in the aircraft electrical system with the electrical system turned on or any avionics component running off a backup battery! Only adjust potentiometers using the TOOL-00000 Trimmer Adjustment Tool. If necessary carefully sand down the tip diameter of the trimmer adjustment tool to fit within the adjustment holes in the case of the AV-50000A Control Module. When adjusting the potentiometers it is possible to run off the end of the adjustment range. The item being adjusted will then be completely turned off. If this happens turn the pot back into the normal adjustment range. The potentiometer has a built in clutch system which prevents damage if the potentiometer is turned past the end of its travel. The four screws that attach the AV-50000A Control Module to the F-1202B Panel Base provide a ground connection. Do not power up the electrical system without the control module attached to the panel base! Step 5: Make the potentiometers easily accessible. Remove the SkyView display then temporarily remove the four mounting screws that retain the AV-50000A Control Module. Gently pull the control module through the display opening in the panel leaving all the harnesses attached. If the routing of your harnesses prevent this remove the F-1240 Upper Forward Fuselage Skin to grant easy access to the control module. LOUDER (CCW) SOFTER (CW) CAUTION: Only use a battery charger compatible with your battery's specifications. NOTE: If the SkyView AP-Knob Panels kit Section 58 has been installed, skip Step 2. When using the knobs modules the trim rate will be controlled by the SV-AP-PANEL module which is pre-set with factory settings when the latest firmware-settings file is installed from the Van's Aircraft web site. FASTER (CCW) SLOWER (CW) Step 6: Double check that trim tab motion properly corresponds to trim switch input. Use a battery charger to bring the bus voltage to approximately 13.6 volts. Verify the time to run the trim motor stop to stop is approximately 25 seconds. The potentiometer is a 25 turn device. Turning the potentiometer clockwise will slow the motor travel, conversely turning it counter clockwise will speed the motor travel. After the first flight this setting may be fine tuned to builder preference. FIGURE 1: CONTROL MODULE SETTINGS DATE: 04/03/14 REVISION: 2 RV-12 PAGE 42D-29 VAN'S AIRCRAFT, INC. NOTE: This page describes how to make final adjustments to obtain the best performance from the audio mixer. Before starting remove any outside voltage sources such as a battery charger. What is an audio mixer? The design intent of an audio mixer is to combine audio signals together from many different sources into one balanced signal that then will be fed into an intercom. The potentiometers over which you have control first reduce each audio signal, the signals are combined then amplified back to a useable output level for the intercom. The following is a list of the factory preset levels for the audio mixer. Levels are preset at the factory and should work well "out of the box". Levels are included here for future reference. Volume max = 25 turns counter clockwise (CCW) Volume off = 25 turns clockwise (CW) Turning more than 25 turns will ensure the max or off condition. Stall Com 2 Xpndr AutoP Com 1 Nav EFIS (R) EFIS (L) Aux 2 (R) Aux 2 (L) Aux 1 (R) Aux 1 (L) Volume max Volume off Volume off Volume off Volume max Volume off Volume 3 turns CCW from off Volume 3 turns CCW from off Volume off Volume off Volume max Volume max Step 1: Plug in and turn on a music device such as an iPod to the auxiliary music jack. Set the output volume of the device to 75% of full. Practice turning the potentiometers that control the Aux 1 (L) and Aux 1 (R) levels. Become familiar with the feel when tool is actually engaging the potentiometers and changing the output volume. Notice that a very small range (possibly 6 depending on the music device you are using) of the pots 25 available turns are useful. Going back to the description of an audio mixer this means that some audio signals may need large reductions (more turns of the potentiometer) to match the strength of a weak audio signal. Step 2: When you are comfortable adjusting the potentiometers make the following changes to the EFIS (L) and EFIS (R) levels. The goal is to maximize the EFIS alert output level while minimizing the background noise. There are background "noises" inherent to SkyView. By turning the EFIS (L) and (R) levels down as far as possible the "noise" is reduced as much as possible. To make the EFIS audio alerts loud enough to hear, turn the volume output up within the SkyView itself. Note the SkyView volume control only affects the volume of the alerts not the "noise". We have then minimized the noise while maximizing the audio alert volume. Enter the Audio Setup menu within the SkyView display and set the Volume Control / Test to 100%. See Figure 1. If the audio from the display sounds distorted the audio mixer potentiometers in the control module are now set too high. Slowly turn both the EFIS (L) and (R) levels down 1/2 turn at a time until the distortion disappears. Note that if the volume disappears altogether you have turned the potentiometer completely off. Turn the potentiometer back CCW until the volume comes back. It may not be possible to obtain the perfect level setting. In this case turn down the volume within the display to remove the last hint of distortion. This should result in a sound level of 80% - 100% within the screen. The closer to 100% the quieter the "noise" will be. Now that the setup has been maximized and distortion removed turn the screen volume level down even further if the maximized level is too loud for your combination of hearing health and headset quality. PAGE 42D-30 RV-12 REVISION: 2 DATE: 04/03/14 FIGURE 1: SKYVIEW VOLUME CONTROL Step 3: Plug a headset into the pilot headset jacks. If the headset has volume control adjust the volume to the middle of the range. Turn on all audio devices connected to the board. Use a local ATIS or AWOS for radio input. Step 4: Adjust the radio volume knob to full volume. Adjust the Com 1 sound level potentiometer on the AV-50000A Control Module until the radio is too loud and slightly distorted. Step 5: Install the AV-50000A back onto the F-1202B Panel Base as shown in Section 42M. VAN'S AIRCRAFT, INC. NOTE: Some labels are integrated into the parts themselves. Fuse labels, and instrument panel switch markings are integrated as shown in Figure 1. If not installing the corresponding option for the switches shown in Figure 1, the switches must be labeled as inoperable. F-1200 Interior Label Sheet labels are printed on a thin sheet of metal. Bending the interior label sheet labels may cause creasing or even break the label. To make removal of the labels from the label sheet easier, cut the label sheet with scissors then peel the paper backing off the back of the label. Take care when placing the labels that the surface is clean and dry (denatured alcohol works well) and that the labels are properly aligned. Press labels firmly to adhere. Step 1: Install the F-1200 Interior Label Sheet labels on the left, center, and right instrument panel sections as shown in Figure 1. A piece of narrow masking tape placed below the transponder makes alignment of the throttle, choke, and cabin heat labels easier. See Figure 1.
