Altitude Display Mode

The name of the selected altitude display 

mode (ABV: look up, NRM: normal, BLW: look 

down, or UNR: unrestricted) is displayed 

in the upper left-hand corner of the Traffic 

Screen. The SKY 497 continues to track up 

to 30 intruder aircraft within its maximum 

surveillance range, regardless of the altitude 

display mode selected. 

To change the Altitude Display Mode: 

1.   From  the Traffic  Page,  turn  the 

cursor

  on, 

highlight the current mode and turn the 

small 

right 

knob to cycle through the options. 

2.   With each turn of the knob, the screen changes 

to display the traffic detected within the selected 
altitude display range. The 400W/500W Series 
screen also displays unrestricted traffic (UNR) 
having a range of maximum specified by the 
SKYWATCH Pilot’s Guide. Please refer to the 
SKYWATCH  Pilot’s  Guide  for  information 
regarding altitude display ranges. 

3.   Note  that  confirmation  is  not  required. The 

mode is changed immediately when using the 

small right 

knob. Turn the cursor off when 

selection is made. 

Traffic Page

Traffic can be displayed both on the Map Page 

(only if heading is available) and on the Traffic Page.
