SV-EMS-220 Engine Monitoring System Installation and Configuration
SkyView HDX System Installation Manual - Revision E 10-29
There are three (3) fuel computer options, found under SYSTEM SETUP > SYSTEM
SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION. They are only applicable if you have a fuel flow
sensor installed:
• TOTAL FUEL CAPACITY – set this to the total usable fuel on board when the
tanks are full. Once this is set, the pilot is prevented from accidentally setting
more than this amount of fuel on board.
• PRESET FUEL CAPACITY – this can be used to quickly recall a second, non-
full starting fuel state. For example, if your tanks have tabs so that you can
easily fill to ¾ of your normal full fuel load, you would enter this number here
so that you can quickly set your fuel computer to this second preset when you
fill to the tabs.
• FUEL ADDED DETECT – When set to yes, SkyView will check for
discrepancies between the physical fuel quantity sensors and the fuel
computer’s calculated fuel load on boot-up. If one (1) is found, SkyView will
prompt the user to adjust the fuel computer’s fuel state.
• FUEL TANK REMINDER – SkyView can be configured to alert the pilot to
switch their fuel tanks at a set time or fuel usage interval (based on the fuel
computer’s fuel calculations). When enabled, it will periodically annunciate a
“Switch Fuel Tank” alert message and audio alert. There is no visible counter
for this timer. To configure this feature, set FUEL TANK REMINDER to either
TIME or QUANTITY. Then, set the resulting FUEL REMINDER TIME or FUEL
REMINDER AMOUNT setting to the desired reminder interval.
10.7.3.6 Manual EMS Sensor Settings Configuration
Go to the Sensor Setup Menu (SETUP MENU > EMS SETUP > SENSOR SETUP) to
manually configure the settings of an EMS sensor. Once there, a list of every mapped
sensor is displayed.
Follow this basic procedure to configure sensor settings:
1. Choose a sensor. Scroll through the menu to a sensor and move the joystick right
to enter to the sensor configuration menu.
2. Set the alarm. Scroll to the ALARM configuration line, move the joystick right to
enter the Alarm Adjust Menu, choose the appropriate alarm for the sensor, and
then press ACCEPT. Press BACK to return to the sensor configuration menu.
3. Set the graphical display limits. Scroll to the MAXIMUM and MINIMUM
GRAPHICAL DISPLAY lines, move the joystick right to enter the respective
menus, adjust the values appropriately - and then press ACCEPT. Press BACK to
return to the sensor configuration menu.
4. Set the ranges. Scroll the menu and configure enable, color, and top and bottom.
5. Save the settings. Press BACK to return to the Sensor Setup Menu. Press EXIT
to return to the Main Menu.
The examples on the following pages show four (4) configured sensors: a voltmeter, a
contact, RPM, and an oil temperature sensor.
