14.4 SV-ADSB-472 Related SkyView Display Settings
Before the ADS-B STATUS menu can be accessed, the SV-ADSB-472 needs to be
configured on the SkyView system:
SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > SERIAL PORT SETUP > SERIAL PORT x SETUP
(the serial port you wired the SV-ADSB-472 to) > SERIAL IN DEVICE > SV-ADSB-472 >
ACCEPT (button).
SETUP MENU > TRAFFIC SETUP > SHOW TAIL NUMBERS > YES > ACCEPT (button).
14.5 Post Installation Checks
After the SV-ADSB-472 has been configured, confirmation that communication has been
established with the module by performing the following procedure:
• Go to SETUP MENU > ADS-B STATUS.
• Confirm that the DEVICE line reads SV-ADSB-472.
• Use the STATUS line to determine whether the SV-ADSB-472 is successfully
communicating with SkyView. It can also be used to determine whether the as
well as if it is able to see any ADS-B ground stations. The status line can display
any of the following states:
o NOT FOUND: The device is not communicating with SkyView. This usually
implies a connectivity/wiring problem between the SV-ADSB-472 and
SkyView, or that the SV-ADSB-472 is not receiving power.
o NO SIGNAL: The device is communicating with SkyView, but data is not
being received from an ADS-B ground station. This may occur when you
are on the ground and do not have line-of-sight reception of an ADS-B
ground station, or if you are in the air and are out of range of all ADS-B
ground stations. If there is an ADS-B ground station in range, and NO
SIGNAL is persistently displayed, it may imply a connectivity problem with
your ADS-B antenna or an installation issue that is preventing the ADS-B
antenna from receiving ADS-B ground station broadcasts. Note that when
in flight, the Map Page displays a status widget in its lower left corner that
contains the same information as this menu status item. That widget will be
more useful for ascertaining proper operation once you are in the air and
are most likely to be receiving data from ADS-B ground stations.
o RECEIVING: The device is communicating with SkyView AND data is being
received from an ADS-B ground station.
