1 General
SkyView HDX is an integrated system that aggregates air, engine, traffic, and navigation
information for display to the pilot. The information is portrayed on the SkyView HDX display,
which is a touchscreen, coupled with mechanical knobs and buttons. The SkyView HDX display
provides Primary Flight Information (PFI) on the Primary Flight Display (PFD), Map with current
position, and optionally Engine Monitoring information. Subsystems, such as the Autopilot,
Communications, Transponder, as well as third-party equipment integrate with SkyView HDX to
perform their functions.
Voice aural annunciations and written messages are used to alert the pilot to exceptional
conditions, such as departures from desired altitudes or exceeding engine parameter limits.
Airspeed, altitude, and attitude data is collected by the Air Data, Attitude, Heading Reference
System (ADAHRS.). Engine, fuel, and electrical system data is collected by the optional Engine
Monitoring System (EMS).
Navigation data is provided by an integrated GPS and by external navigation sources.
ADS-B In traffic data is provided by an integrated ADS-B In receiver. ADS-B Out capability is
provided by a position source and transponder, which have been shown to meet the
requirements of 14 CFR 91.227.
The system stores an onboard terrain and chart database for display as the VFR Map.
This document contains information related to operating the optional Autopilot. Not every
airplane is approved to be equipped with the SkyView HDX Autopilot system.
