SV-COM-X83 Installation and Configuration
SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision AA 17-5
If you are installing two SV-COM-X83s, it is acceptable to co-locate the two SV-COM-T8
transceiver modules.
Select a position in the aircraft for the SV-COM-T8 that is not too close to any high external
heat source and where reasonable airflow is available. The SV-COM-T8 is not a significant
heat source itself and does not need to be kept away from other devices for this reason.
Avoid sharp bends and placing the cables too near to the aircraft control cables.
Secure the SV-COM-T8 to the aircraft via the three (3) mounting holes in the plate. The unit
should be mounted to a flat surface – it is important that the tray is supported at the
dimples as well as the three mounting points.
Put the SV-COM-T8 into the secured mounting tray by hooking the connector end under the
lip on the tray.
Lock the SV-COM-T8 into the mounting tray by clipping the retaining wire over the lugs on
the opposite end.
Additional items you will require for installation of SV-COM-X83, but which are not in the SV-
COM-X83 package, include:
Nutplates for mounting SV-COM-PANEL to the panel
To secure the SV-COM-X83 tray to the airframe you will need least 3 flat head screws and
three self-locking nuts. If the aircraft does not have existing mounting provisions you may
need to fabricate additional brackets to support the SV-COM-X83 tray.
Circuit breaker or fuse for power to SV-COM-T8 and SV-COM-PANEL
Power wires to SV-COM-T8
SV-COM-T8 to SV-COM-PANEL wiring
SkyView Network cables to connect the SV-COM-PANEL to SkyView Network
COM Antenna, coaxial cable, terminated to TNC Male connector or cable and TNC Male
connector is included with your COM antenna. The SV-COM-X83 is compatible with aircraft
COM antennas commonly available (may require a TNC Male to BNC Female adapter).
