Displaying the VP-X Page
The VP-X page is displayed on-demand by pressing MAIN MENU > ENGINE > VP-X. In addition to
bringing up the VP-X page alongside the Engine Page, this will also bring up the VP-X menu
along the bottom of the display. Once in the VP-X menu, pressing BACK will both close the VP-X
page and back out of the VP-X menu.
Because the VP-X page is part of the Engine Page, the Engine Page must be visible on the
display that you are trying to access the VP-X page on. The ENGINE page can be toggled on and
off on a display by pressing MAIN MENU > SCREEN > EMS PG.
The Engine Page dynamically resizes to accommodate the VP-X page alongside of it. If all of the
PFD, Engine, and Map Pages were being displayed when the VP-X page is toggled on, the Map
Page will automatically be removed to accommodate the VP-X page. When you turn the VP-X
page off, the Map Page will automatically be re-opened.

VP-X Page with Fault
Graphical Electrical System Diagram
The top portion of the VP-
X page depicts the following information about your aircraft’s
electrical system graphically:
•
Center, bottom (Vertical Power logo): Total current draw of all circuits in the system.
Yellow cautions and red warning levels are triggered at the values specified during
setup.
•
Upper left: Main and auxiliary (if installed) alternators. The status of the alternator,
as well as the amount of current (in Amps) it is producing is displayed. Current will
not be displayed if an amps shunt is not installed and connected to SkyView. Yellow
cautions and red warning levels are triggered at the values specified during setup.
Additionally, if SkyView detects airspeed but not an active alternator, a fault will be
generated.
