Power/Ground Input 
The SV-ADSB-470 can be powered by 10-30 Volts DC. 22 AWG wire is sufficient for wire runs up 
to 50’ for this application. Note that the SV-ADSB-470 must be connected to aircraft power – 
none of SkyView’s voltage outputs can provide a sufficient amount of power to power the SV-
ADSB-470.

Serial RX/TX 
All communication between the SV-ADSB-470 module and SkyView is accomplished via a single 
bidirectional serial connection. To accomplish this: 
  Choose an unused serial port on each display to connect the SV-ADSB-470 to. Note that 
both the TX and RX sides of the serial port are needed, and both the RX and TX lines 
must be connected to all displays in parallel. The same numerical serial port must be 
used on each display. 
  Connect the SV-ADSB-470 TX wire (pin 3) to the SkyView serial RX of your choosing. If 
you have multiple displays, the SV-ADSB-470 TX wire must be connected to the same 
serial RX wire on each display. 
  Connect the SV-ADSB-470 RX wire (pin 2) to the SkyView serial TX of your choosing. If 
you have multiple displays, the SV-ADSB-470 RX wire must be connected to the same 
serial TX wire on each display.
