Refer to the SKYWATCH User’s Guide for
a detailed description of Skywatch operation.
Power-up Self-Test
Check for the following test criteria on the Traffic Map
Page during power-up:
1. If the SKYWATCH passes the power-up test
and is on the ground, the Standby Screen is
displayed.
2. If the SKYWATCH passes the power-up test
and your aircraft is airborne, the Traffic Map
Page is displayed on the last map range used
display range and in the unrestricted altitude
display mode.
3. If the SKYWATCH continues to fail, refer to
the failure response section in the SKYWATCH
Pilot’s Guide on actions to take.
In addition to the power-up test, the SKYWATCH
performs a continuous self-test. This continuous self-test
is performed several times per minute.
To begin tracking intruder aircraft:
Press the
OPERATE
softkey.
Switching Between Standby and Various
Operating Modes
The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be
displayed. The ability to switch out of standby into oper-
ating mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning
the airspace around the airport before takeoff.
To switch into Operating Mode from
Standby Mode:
1. Press the
OPERATE
softkey or menu ‘Operating
Mode’.
2. If ‘Operating Mode’ is selected from the FMS
menu, press the
ENT
key to confirm and place
the SKYWATCH in operating mode.
To switch into Standby Mode from the Traf-
fic Page:
Press the
STANDBY
softkey.
Altitude Display Mode
To change the Altitude Display Mode:
Press the
ALT MODE
softkey then press one
of the following options: BELOW, NORMAL,
ABOVE, UNREST.
With each selection, the screen changes to display
the traffic detected within the selected altitude display
range. The G1000 screen also displays unrestricted traf-
fic (UNREST) having a range of maximum specified by
the SKYWATCH Pilot’s Guide. Refer to the SKYWATCH
Pilot’s Guide for information regarding altitude display
ranges. Note that confirmation is not required. The mode
is changed immediately when selected.
