Connected SkyView and GTN 635

I connected all of the unswitched audio inputs from the audio panel to the interconnect bus along with the GTN serial output lines to the ELT and transponder.  I also connected the ARINC-429 TX/RX lines from the GTN to the SkyView ARINC converter box (along with the #1 GTN serial line).  The only harness wires left to connect are the dimming wires and headset jacks.

I spent a little time configuring the ARINC and serial connections on both the GTN and SkyView.  Now, with a simple flight plan entered into the GTN from KLVK on the right to KSNS on the lower left…

The HSI on the SkyView correctly shows that the course is behind me and that I need to turn left to head toward the destination.  Using the graphical flight plan editor on the GTN, I can drag the course line to a new location and the HSI on the SkyView updates immediately.
