The Universal adapter SD-GENERIC-E V1.2 is the first SD-Link product with Bluetooth® 5.0 Low EnergyThe new technology not only enables fast transmission of frequencies to radio devices, but also the stable and uninterrupted transmission of navigation data to autopilots.
Previously, earlier Bluetooth versions could crash because the limited data packet length was not sufficient to fully transmit larger navigation information. With Bluetooth 5.0 this problem is eliminated - thanks to unlimited data packet lengths and an significantly improved signal stability.
The advantages of Bluetooth® 5.0 for SD-Link adapters:
Stable connection without interruptions – no limit on data packet length, ideal for navigation information to autopilots
Doubled range – reliable communication even in demanding environments
Higher data rate - up to 2 MBit / s for fast frequency and navigation transmission
Lower energy consumption – more efficient power management for longer operating times
More reliable signal transmission – improved immunity to other radio signals
Our other products will follow soon.
Important note: The mechanical dimensions, installation process and handling remain unchangedThe proven SD-Link quality remains – now with more powerful and stable communication technology.
We are often asked what the current SkyDemon Bluetooth “GENERIC” adapter thought is. After receiving a lot of feedback, we realized that the name “GENERIC” was not the best choice. Therefore, we decided to rename the adapter to SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter for SkyDemon to rename.
The new name better describes what the adapter can do: a universal solution for various applications – flexible, compact and reliable.
What is the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter?
The Skydemon Universal Bluetooth to RS232 adapter is comparable to other SkyDemon Bluetooth adapters on the market, however not for a specific radio Instead, it offers a universal solution for a variety of radios and avionics systems.
Basic functions of the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 adapter:
Bidirectional Bluetooth V4.0 BLE module
V24 level adjustment
Power Supply: 5-28V
What the adapter does not offer:
No specific adaptation to the radio connector layout
No forwarding of internal radio connections
No input or output of additional RS232 data
Comparison of the SD-Link Universal Bluetooth-to-RS232 Adapter
The SD-UNIVERSAL-E is comparable in functionality to the IRXON BT578 (or derivatives) – but with a more compact design and an extended operating voltage range.
SD-GENERIC_E vs IRXON BT578_V2
You can use the adapter for all supported SkyDemon radios and autopilots – with manual wiring.
Attention: For the Becker AR620X is the adapter not suitable!
For this purpose we have developed the speciallySD-AR620X-E.
The best for last:
The Pin assignment of the SD-UNIVERSAL-E corresponds to that Remote connector of the funke ATR833S, ATR833-II and ATR833A-II.
Even the old ATR833 with +12 V on the remote connector works.
This means: Plug-and-Play-Solution for these devices! The remote connector is available in the following Funke wiring harnesses include:
BSKS833S-S
BSKS833D-S
BSKS833OE-S
BSKS833GLS-S
BSKS833GLD-S
And if you choose the version with Conec Snap-Lock, the module fits exactly into the prepared socket – without the use of screws.
Since version 4.0.0 (August 2024), SkyDemon (SD) offers the ability to set COM frequencies of selected radios (standby and active) directly from the app. The list of supported radios is continuously growing. On the homepage of SkyDemon you can find an interestingVideoUntil now, this involved a bit of tinkering, as you had to power the BLE receiver and adjust the signals to the correct level. You also need a housing… so soldering, tinkering, and screwing.
Our TQ KRT2 PnP adapter is here to change that. Simply plug it in and you're done!
And if you still want to tinker, the adapter offers the possibility of supplying additional devices with V24 data.
Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) adapter for TQ KRT2 VHF radios. Enables connection to SkyDemon navigation software. Easy installation, 12V and 24V power supply. For experimental use only!
Like in Aviation Magazine 08/2024 reported, SkyDemon (SD) will support sending radio frequencies directly to radio devices. Since December 2024, the Becker protocol has also been supported, but so far only in the Android beta version ofSD 4.0.2The iOS version with Becker AR620X support will be released in the next SD card release. We are taking advantage of this exciting development at SD Link and are pleased to present our new Becker AR620X Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE) adapter – an experimental prototype that optimally supports this function!
