Display (Alternate or WX-1000/SKY497 Display P/N 78-8060-5900-x)
The display used is installation dependent. If installing to meet the requirements for a TCAS I installation
an alternate display device (i.e., EFIS, MFD, IVSI, weather radar indicator) approved for displaying
TCAS I information is required. If installing to meet requirements for a TAS installation an alternate
display device, the WX-1000/SKY497 display, or both can be used as primary means for displaying
traffic information.
When interfaced to both displays (alternate display and WX-1000/SKY497 display), display functions
may be linked together or separate depending on the capabilities of the alternate display. When installed
with only an alternate display device, a terminal device (i.e., laptop) is required for system setup and post-
installation checkout (see appendix F).
The SKY899 is designed to transmit traffic information to an alternate display device via our ARINC-429
bus interface (100 kHz fixed speed). Refer to display manufacturer instructions for installation details.
WX-1000/SKY497 Display P/N 78-8060-5900-x.
