Selecting and Arranging Pages on your SkyView SE Screen
1. Press LAYOUT on the Main Menu Button 7.
2. Each press of the LAYOUT button will rotate to the next screen configuration in
sequence, as follows:
a. 100% PFD
b. 80% PFD / 20% EMS
c. 50% PFD / 50% EMS
d. 100% EMS
3. After sequencing through the 4 available screen configurations, additional presses of the
LAYOUT button will repeat the sequence in rotary fashion.
4. From any screen configuration, at most 3 presses of the LAYOUT button are required to
select any other desired configuration.
Backup Battery Charging and Testing
In the event of an electrical failure that causes SkyView SE to run on the SV-BAT-320, the SV-
BAT-320 supplies power to the SkyView SE display it is connected to, along with any connected
SV-ADAHRS-26X, SV-EMS-220, and SV-GPS-250 or -2020 modules. Because of higher power
requirements, the SV-BAT-320 does not power Autopilot servos, the SV-XPNDR-261/262, SV-
SV-COM-760, -T25/T8, -425, devices connected via a serial connection, or any other third party
devices. SkyView’s maximum display brightness is reduced very slightly when operating on
backup battery power to reduce power consumption.
When connected, the battery's charge level is automatically managed by the SkyView SE display
it is physically connected to. This ensures that the display has a fully charged backup battery in
case of emergency. Charging a completely discharged battery may take up to 4 hours. To
conserve your aircraft battery, the SV‐BAT‐320 is only charged when SkyView detects that your
alternator or generator is online. Specifically:
• If SkyView system voltage is above 12.25V: SkyView runs on master power and charges
the SV-BAT-320.
• If SkyView system voltage is above 10V, but below 12.25V: SkyView runs on master
power but does not charge the SV-BAT-320.
• If SkyView system voltage is below 10V: SkyView runs on the SV-BAT-320. This
discharges the SV-BAT-320.
Reference the SkyView Classic / SE / HDX System Installation Guide for more details regarding
current consumption while charging a backup battery.
A battery is fully charged when it reaches 12.25 volts and should power a typical
SkyView system for at least 60 minutes. If SkyView has switched to the backup
battery due to a power loss in your aircraft, it is advised that you land as soon as
possible.
