Basic Display Operation Procedures
This subsection covers basic operation procedures for displays. Detailed instructions for various
menus and individual menu items are described later in this guide.
How to Turn the System On or Off
Table 10 summarizes the procedures for toggling SkyView system power states.
Table 10 – How to Toggle SkyView System Power State
Loss of Aircraft Power with SV-BAT-320 Connected
If external power is lost to a display that is connected to a SV-BAT-320 Backup Battery, it will
either stay on for an additional 30 seconds or stay on indefinitely depending on whether or not
the aircraft is in flight. This feature minimizes SV-BAT-320 discharge when on the ground and
master/external power is shut off normally while simultaneously reducing pilot workload during
an actual in-flight power loss.
If the aircraft is not in flight, SkyView displays the message “POWERING DOWN IN xx SECONDS”
while counting down from 30 seconds. During this countdown, the menu displays the buttons
STAY ON and PWR OFF at the bottom of the screen. Press PWR OFF to turn off the SkyView
display immediately. Press STAY ON to keep the SkyView display on via the connected SV-BAT-
320. If STAY ON is pressed, the display will continue to use the SV-BAT-320 to power itself until
the battery’s charge is depleted or the display is turned off manually pressing and holding
button 1. Finally, if neither button is pressed before the countdown expires, the display will
automatically turn off after 30 seconds to conserve the SV-BAT-320 charge.
If the aircraft is in flight, SkyView displays the message “AIRCRAFT POWER LOST” with no
additional count down. This ensures that active pilot action is required to turn off a display
when power is lost in-flight and SV-BAT-320 power is available. The STAY ON and PWR OFF
buttons are still offered, but the display will stay on indefinitely unless PWR OFF is pressed.
