SkyView
HDX System
General Maintenance Manual, Revision F
8.14.1
Location
The ADS-B IN Receiver is typically located behind the SkyView HDX Display on the avionics
tray. For specific location, see the
Equipment Installation Record
document associated with the
airplane.
8.14.2
Removal
1. Shut down airplane power and disconnect the battery.
2. Remove rear DB9 connector from ADS-B IN Receiver.
3. Remove BNC connector from ADS-B IN Receiver.
4. Remove screws that secure ADS-B IN Receiver to avionics tray, and then remove it. Keep
screws for re-installation.
8.14.3
Installation
1. Install GPS ADS-B IN Receiver in same location using same screws (see
if screws need to be replaced).
2. Connect ADS-B Antenna to BNC connector on back of ADS-B IN Receiver.
3. Connect DB9 connector to ADS-B IN Receiver.
4. Restore power to airplane
5. Turn SkyView system
ON
.
6. Go to SETUP MENU > ADS-B STATUS.
7. Confirm that the DEVICE line reads SV-ADSB-472.
8. Use the STATUS line to determine whether the SV-ADSB-472 is successfully
communicating with SkyView HDX. It can also be used to determine if it is able to see
any ADS-B ground stations. The status line can display any of the following states:
•
NOT FOUND: The device is not communicating with SkyView HDX. This usually
means a connectivity/wiring problem between the ADS-B IN Receiver and SkyView
HDX, or that the ADS-B IN Receiver is not receiving power.
•
NO SIGNAL: The device is communicating with SkyView HDX Display, 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 mean 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.
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. See Section 7.10 for more information.
•
RECEIVING: The device is communicating with SkyView HDX Display and data is
being received from an ADS-B ground station.
