xii SkyView Pilot’s User Guide
Revision Revision Date Description
S (cont.) January 2015
Improved: When starting navigation via the "direct-to" feature, SkyView now anticipates
the initial turn (if ones is required) and starts navigating from the end of that initial turn.
This eliminates s-turning after the initial turn towards the "direct-to" destination.
Improved: Video input can be flipped horizontally and/or vertically.
Improved: Since "ON" mode is almost never used in mode-S operations, and pilots using
that mode likely intend to be in ALT, a XPNDR NOT IN ALT MODE alert is presented
whenever the SV-XPNDR-26X has been in "ON" mode for >5 seconds.
Improved: Notification when SV-BAT-320 is severely discharged upon boot. This is most
likely to occur immediately after performing the yearly battery rundown test.
Improved: GPS location now sent to GNC 255 and GTR 225 radios to enable their ability to
look up aviation features from their self-contained databases.
Improved: XPNDR HEX CODE NOT SET alert now provided whenever an ADS-B receiver is
installed but a valid HEX code is not set.
Improved: MAP joystick/knob function can be set to either the left of right joystick/knob
when MAP is full-screen (100% Page).
Improved: Map zoom/range feature can be reversed so that clockwise rotation "zooms
in" to the map (decreases range) to suit user preference.
Improved: IAS bug now shown on six-pack PFD page.
Improved: EGTs and CHTs that are displaying a "red X" due to probe failure no longer
show a railed pictorial value on the analog graph graphical display.
Improved: When a GTN or GNS series ARINC navigator is in GPS OBS mode, the selected
inbound course to the waypoint being navigated to is depicted on SkyView's map when
that navigator's flight plan the displayed map.
Improved: Display auto-dimming improved to improve behavior during light changes such
as when a flashlight is used at night.
Improved: Runways with unknown length are not shown when NRST list is being filtered
by runway length.
Improved: Automatic switching of AIR and GROUND modes for the SV-26X-XPNDR when
flying at low airspeed.
Improved: "GAMI"-style fuel flow spread is now always displayed in GPH to follow usage
convention.
Improved: PFD pitch ladder clipping adjusted to avoid visual conflicts with turn rate and
heading elements above the DG/HSI.
Fixed: ADS-B Density Altitude calculation.
Fixed: SkyView would take longer (up to 2 minutes) to boot one time after high resolution
terrain was loaded. This bug was introduced in 11.1.
Improved: Knob debouncing algorithm to eliminate extra or erratic value changes when
turning knobs. This affects both SkyView display knobs and those one SkyView control
panels.
Fixed: Airport icons in the NRST and INFO lists were erroneously being displayed as
weather icons instead of the chart-style icons.
Fixed: PAL mode now works with Video Input Adapter.
Fixed: NO HI-RES TERRAIN message no longer annunciated due to GPS data loss.
Fixed: incorrect error message when trying to load .duc packages a second time.
Fixed: Upcoming TFRs received via ADS-B were incorrectly color-coded by local time
instead of UTC time.
