14. SV-ADSB-470 Installation, Configuration, and Testing

SkyView can receive traffic and weather via the SV-ADSB-470 UAT Band Traffic and Weather

Receiver. The SV-ADSB-470 is a remote mounted module that connects to SkyView via a serial

port on your SkyView display(s). It also requires the installation of a dedicated antenna for ADS-

B signal reception.

A map license is required to display ADS-B traffic and weather data received from

the SV-ADSB-470. A trial map license for the initial 30 flight hours is included with

every SkyView display. After the 30 flight hour trial expires, installation of the SV-

MAP-270 Navigation Mapping Software License is required to display ADS-B traffic

and weather data.

Read and understand the System Planning Chapter before installing the SV-ADSB-

470.

The SV-ADSB-470 receives traffic and weather via the 978 MHz UAT ADS-B

frequencies, which are only utilized in the US. Therefore, traffic and weather are

only available in the US. Dynon Avionics does not recommend the use of the SV-

ADSB-470 outside the US.

Although weather and TFR information (FIS-B services) available any time the SV-

ADSB-470 is in an ADS-B ground station coverage area, ADS-B FIS-B traffic is only

available if a transponder with ADS-B OUT capability is installed and is providing

ADS-B OUT position reports into the ADS-B system.

To enable ADS-B Traffic information on the SV-ADSB-470 with an ADS-B OUT

device other than the Dynon Avionics SV-XPNDR-261/262:

1. SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > AIRCRAFT INFORMATION > AIRCRAFT HEX

CODE > (enter the HEX Code assigned to your aircraft) > ACCEPT (button)

2. SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > TRAFFIC SETUP > NON-DYNON ADS-B OUT

ONBOARD > YES

Only ADS-B OUT devices that comply with TSO C166b or later of the ADS-B spec

will allow traffic to be displayed properly. The ADS-B OUT device must be set up to

tell the ADS-B system that the aircraft is receiving on 978 MHz.
