Figure 7–SkyView System with Two Redundant Displays, One EMS, Two Backup Batteries (One per Display), One
GPS, and Two Redundant ADAHRS
Note, that in Figure 7, the SV-GPS-250’s power, ground, and output wires are
connected to both displays.
The following diagrams show two different ways to lay out a more complex system in which
there are more SkyView Network modules than available SkyView Network ports.
The first diagram reflects the way that one would typically build a network when purchasing
components prior to March 2012 before the SV-NET-HUB was available. It uses splitters to
create all additional SkyView Network connections. This connection methodology is still valid
and supported, although the use of a SV-NET-HUB is preferred going forward.
The second diagram reflects the way one can build a network utilizing the SV-NET-HUB to
expand the number of available SkyView Network ports instead of splitters. It is both less
expensive and utilizes fewer total connections (and no gender changers) when compared with
the splitter-based method. Note that a splitter is still useful for wiring two co-located
redundant ADAHRS modules. In most installations, this is the only application of the SV-NET-SPL
that is necessary when utilizing the SV-NET-HUB to build a SkyView Network.
