HAZARD AVOIDANCE

OPERATION

The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be displayed. The ability to switch from standby to operating
mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning the airspace around the airport before takeoff.
Switching from standby mode to operating mode:
1) On the Traffic Page, select the OPERATE Softkey or press the MENU Key and turn the small FMS knob to select
Operating Mode.
2) If using the FMS menu, press the ENT Key to place the SKY497 in the operating mode.
3) To switch to Standby Mode from the Traffic Page, select the STANDBY Softkey.
Testing the Traffic Advisory System:
1) Set the range to 2/6 nm to allow for full traffic test pattern display.
2) Select the STANDBY Softkey.
3) Select the TEST Softkey.
4) System test takes approximately eight seconds to complete. When completed successfully, traffic symbols
display and a voice alert "Traffic Advisory System Test Passed" is heard. If the system test fails, the system
reverts to Standby Mode and a voice alert "Traffic Advisory System Test Failed" is heard.

DISPLAYING TRAFFIC DATA

Traffic information can be displayed on the following maps when the SKY497 unit is operating:
• PFD Inset Map
• Navigation Map Page (Heading Up orientation
only)
• Traffic Map Page
Traffic information can also be displayed on the PFD when the Synthetic Vision System (SVS) option is
installed and enabled. See the Additional Features Section for details.
Displaying traffic on the Traffic Map Page:

4) Select the ALT MODE Softkey to change the altitude volume.
5) Select the STANDBY Softkey to place the system in the Standby mode. 'STANDBY' is displayed in the Traffic
