GPS Signal Source
SkyView’s PFD contains display
elements
–
such as Synthetic Vision, ground speed, and the HSI -
that depend on GPS information to work. Reference the GPS Source section in the SV-MAP-270
Navigation Mapping Software chapter of this guide for information about how SkyView utilizes
and prioritizes the available GPS sources that are used for this purpose.
PFD Symbology
Bugs
The SkyView PFD makes use of airspeed, altitude, vertical speed, indicated airspeed, minimum
descent altitude, and heading (or track) bugs. Note that the altitude, vertical speed, indicated
airspeed, and heading (or track) bugs are used for autopilot control if Autopilot servos are
installed. Instructions for setting bugs are detailed in subsequent sections of this guide.
The airspeed, altitude, vertical speed and indicated airspeed bugs are located above their
respective tapes and the heading (or track) bug is located to the lower left of the Magnetic
Heading Indicator/ Directional Gyro.
You can toggle the display state of bugs using the following procedure. Ensure that bugs that
are used as control mechanisms for autopilot axes (i.e., HDG ALT, IAS, and VS) are available on
at least one display or knob control panel. If you have multiple displays in your aircraft, you can
toggle the bugs on each independently.
1.
Press PFD while on the Main Menu.
2.
Press BUGS.
3.
Press HDG, ALT, IAS, VS, CRS or MIN to toggle the display state of each respective bug.
If
a bug label is highlighted, it will show up on the PFD and in the joystick menu.
4.
Press BACK to return to the PFD Menu.
A bug is only adjustable if it is on and it is an option in the Joystick Menu. Bugs that are turned
off are displayed as “
- - -
“with their respective units (e.g., “

FT” for an altitude bug).
