The
SKY497
switches
out of standby into
the
above display
mode and
6
nmi range
(figure
3-6
).
If your aircraft has a
squat switch and you
don’t
manually switch
out of standby, the
SKY497
automatically
switches out of
standby
8
to
10
seconds after takeoff.
2. To manually switch
into standby from the traffic screen, press the button
labeled
>
STB
.
The
SKY497
goes into standby and the display switches back
to the standby screen. (If your aircraft has a squat switch, the
> STB
button label is not displayed while airborne, and the
SKY497
will not go into standby while airborne.)
If your aircraft has a squat switch, the
SKY497
also goes into
standby automatically,
24
seconds after landing. This delay
allows the
SKY497
to remain out of standby during a touch-
and-go maneuver.
