SV-D700 / SV-D1000 Installation and Configuration4. Set serial 1 baud rate to 9600 (SERIAL 1 IN/OUT BAUD RATE: 9600)5. Set serial 1 output device to ICARUS (100ft) or ICARUS (10ft) (SERIAL 1 OUT DEVICE:ICARUS (100ft) or ICARUS (10ft).6. Press BACK or EXIT to save the settings.Brightness SetupEnter the Brightness Setup Page (SETUP MENU > LOCAL DISPLAY SETUP > BRIGHTNESS SETUP)to characterize the display’s backlight behavior. The backlight level can be adjusted manually bythe user, automatically by the display based on ambient light conditions, or by an externalcontrol signal while on the Brightness Setup Page and in normal flight. Regardless of thespecified control method, users always have the option of manually adjusting the backlight levelin the Dim Menu.Manual Brightness ManagementTo set the backlight light level so that it is exclusively controlled manually (i.e., no automatic orexternal brightness control) set BRIGHTNESS SOURCE to MANUAL ONLY. In this mode, thebacklight level is managed exclusively by the user in all situations in the Dim Menu. Referencethe Basic Display Operation Procedures Section for instructions on how to manually adjust thebacklight level in the Dim Menu.Automatic Brightness ManagementTo set the backlight level so that it automatically adjusts, set BRIGHTNESS SOURCE to AUTO ORMANUAL. When this option is selected, dimming is normally controlled automatically viaambient light detection, but it can also be controlled manually by using the Dim Menu. Dynonhas created a default dimming profile that should work well in most aircraft. If you find that thisprofile does not work well in your installation, it can be customized to suit your preferencesusing the tools on the Brightness Setup Page. This page displays several parameters, which arelisted and briefly explained below.Current Brightness Sensor Value–This is an integer value ranging from 0 to 999 thatrepresents the amount of light sensed by the display’s integrated light sensor. Use thisvalue to characterize the ambient light levels in your installation during characterization.Current Brightness Target–This is a percentage ranging from 0% to 100% that representsthe calculated target backlight level based on the sensed ambient light level and thepercent brightness sensor value map. The actual brightness never drops below 20%when the Brightness Setup Page is displayed, even though the target value may bebelow 20%.4-22 SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision O
