External Brightness Management
To set the backlight level so that it is controlled by an external variable voltage input (0-30V
DC), set BRIGHTNESS SOURCE to EXTERNAL. When this option is selected, dimming is controlled
automatically via an external signal. If backlight control is set to external, you must configure
the brightness settings on the BRIGHTNESS SETUP Menu. This menu displays several
parameters, which are listed and briefly explained below.

EXTERNAL BRIGHTNESS VOLTAGE – This is the voltage level of the external control signal.
Use this value to characterize the ambient light levels in your installation during
characterization.

BRIGHTNESS TARGET – This is a percentage ranging from 0% to 100% that represents the
calculated target backlight level based on the sensed ambient light level and the percent
brightness voltage map. Note that this is a calculated value and is not set by the user. The
actual brightness never drops below 20% when the Brightness Setup Page is displayed, even
though the target value may be below 20%.

xx% Brightness Voltage – There are four percent brightness values: 25%, 50%, 75% and
100%. These percentages are correlated to a brightness voltage, which are to the right of
the percent value. These percentages along with the minimum brightness voltage
(explained below) form the calibration points for the backlight management profile. When
the current brightness voltage matches one of these points, the target backlight level is
adjusted to that percentage. When the current brightness voltage is in between these
points, the display interpolates between the points and calculates an appropriate target
backlight level. These voltages must be set by the user.

MINIMUM BRIGHTNESS VOLTAGE – This is a voltage that represents the external control
signal’s minimum voltage level. This must be set by the user.

Top Bar Setup
The top bar is the strip across the top of the screen. It displays textual information such as the
clock, autopilot status, transponder, and COM radio status.
Enter the Top Bar Setup Page to configure the top bar (SETUP MENU > LOCAL DISPLAY SETUP >
TOP BAR SETUP).
Aircraft Information
Use the Aircraft Information Page (SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION)
to record important information about your aircraft.
The tail number must be present for SkyView network configuration and operation.
If you have more than one display in your SkyView system, the tail number only
needs to be set on the display that you initially perform the Network Configuration
