Reference the OperationSection of this guide for more information about this menu.Serial Port ConfigurationReference serial device documentation for serial communication specifications.SkyView serial ports are configured in the Serial Port Setup Menu (SETUP MENU > SYSTEMSETUP > SERIAL PORT SETUP). SkyView serial ports have four parameters that must be defined:Input DeviceInput FunctionBaud RateOutput DeviceInput DeviceNote that sometimes a parameter will be defined as NONE on the screen. Forexample, when a serial port is configured as only an output, the input device andinput function will both be set to NONE.Set the input device to the data format the SkyView display should expect from an input device.The configurable options list contains equipment by brand and model and also generic dataformats such as NMEA and aviation. NMEA is the standard format for most GPS units (includingthe SV-GPS-250). Aviation is used by some Garmin and Bendix/King panel mount equipment. Ifyour specific equipment is listed by brand and model, we recommend you configure SkyView touse this option instead of a generic data format.If you have any ARINC-429 devices, these are configured separately. See the SV-ARINC-429Installation and Configuration Section of this guide for more information.Input FunctionSkyView has several options for input functions: NONE, GPS, NAV, or POS. Set the device’s inputfunction to NONE if it does not have an input function.GPS devices provide GPS position and navigational information. These devices aregenerally "moving maps" that depict airports, airspaces, etc., and can generate flightplans. They provide source data for the moving map, HSI, autopilot, synthetic vision, andthe clock in the Top Bar. An example GPS device is a Garmin X96.NAV devices provide radio-based navigational information from a VOR or ILS. Theyprovide source data for the HSI and autopilot. SkyView currently supports only theGarmin SL30 NAV Radio.4-20 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision O
