4 SkyView HDX Display Installation and Configuration
This section contains information and diagrams that specifically apply to the installation
of SkyView HDX System per STC SA02594SE. After reading this section, you should be
able to determine how to prepare a panel for display installation, how to mount a display,
how to make all necessary electrical connections, and how to generally configure the
display. Airplane specific configuration will be described in the SkyView System
Configuration Manual for your airplane.
• Consider the ease, or difficulty of disconnecting multiple connectors when
removing a SkyView display from the panel. Plan for either:
o Providing sufficient slack in the cables so that the SkyView display can be
removed from the panel and then the cables disconnected, or
o Disconnecting (and reconnecting) the cables from behind the panel prior to
removing the SkyView display from the panel.
• The SkyView Display Harness (SV-HARNESS-D37) extends about 3” (76mm)
from the back of the display.
• Add a 1.0” (25.4 mm), minimum, beyond the physically required volume for the
SkyView display’s heat sinks and fans to operate.
• Avoid placing the display near heater vents or any source of extremely hot air.
While SkyView displays do not normally require a forced cooling air, if the
aircraft is to be operated in hot climates, the builder should ensure that the
stated operating temperature range for SkyView displays is not exceeded.
• The display should be easily viewable without any obstructions.
• SkyView displays have no internal inertial sensors and do not need to be
mounted in the same orientation as the ADAHRS or other modules.
• Displays only support a landscape viewing orientation; do not mount in portrait
orientation.
Figure 27 and Figure 28 show the mechanical dimensions of the SkyView displays. Use
the dimensions (in inches) in the diagrams to plan for the space required by the display.
To mount a SkyView display, cut an appropriately sized rectangular opening in your
panel, drill out the mounting holes, and use the included mounting screws to fasten the
display to the panel.
