1. Scroll through the different parameters using a combination of joystick turns and
movements in the up, down, left, and right motions. The selected parameter is
highlighted and its text is enlarged.
2. Press SELECT to open the parameter for editing.
3. Edit the parameter using a series of joystick turns and movements.
4. Save the parameter edit by pressing ACCEPT or by moving either joystick to the right or
the left. Press CANCEL to back out of the parameter edit mode without saving.
EMS Sensor Settings
Mapped sensors that are displayed on the Engine Page should have their alert and graphical
properties appropriately configured. This section explains the settings that are required for EMS
sensors, contains instructions for manually configuring sensor settings, and uses several sensor
settings examples to further explain sensor settings.
SkyView EMS sensor settings are defined by the following parameters in the Sensor Setup
Menu:

ALARM

MAXIMUM GRAPHICAL DISPLAY

MINIMUM GRAPHICAL DISPLAY

SHOW SENSOR UNITS

RANGE (1-5)
EMS Sensor Alarms
EMS alerts (audio, EMS indicator light) are triggered when a sensor goes into a RED range, and
set to SELF-CLEAR or LATCHING below. There are three alarm options for EMS sensors:

OFF – no alarm for the sensor.

SELF-CLEAR – When an alert is triggered, it is annunciated both on the engine page and in
the messaging system. When the alert condition ceases, all of these annunciations cease,
even if the precise alert message was not acknowledged by pressing the rightmost button
on the display to bring up the message window.

LATCHING – When an alert is triggered, it is annunciated both on the engine page and in the
messaging system. However, when the alert condition ceases, the message notification area
above the rightmost button will continue to show the unacknowledged alert state until the
alert message is viewed in the message window, even though the offending parameter has
returned to within limits. This behavior ensures that the pilot is aware that an alert was
triggered, even though the condition no longer exists.
Reference the SkyView Pilot’s User Guide for information regarding how sensor alarms show up
onscreen during operation.
EMS Sensor Graphical Display Limits
The settings here define the minimum and maximum values that will be shown graphically on
the sensor’s gauge. Effectively, this is the start and stop point of the gauge. If the indicator you
choose for this value shows digital numbers for the value, they will not be limited by this
