User-initiated Test A user-initiated test can only be performed when in standby or failed mode. In addition to the power-up test, the SKYWATCH performs a continuous self-test. This continuous self-test is performed several times per minute. A user-initiated test of the SKYWATCH Interface can also be performed. To perform a user-initiated test: 1. Turn the small right knob to select the Traffic Page. From the Traffic Page, press MENU to display the Page Menu. Turn the small right knob to select `Self Test?' and press ENT. Operating Mode is confirmed by the display of `OPER' in the upper right-hand corner of the Traffic Page. Voice Announcements See the SKYWATCH Pilot's Guide for information on voice announcements. Switching Between Standby and Operating Modes The unit must be in operating mode for traffic to be displayed. The ability to switch out of standby into operating mode on the ground is especially useful for scanning the airspace around the airport before takeoff. 11 Getting Started Section 3 SKYWATCHSequence Main Page Interface To switch into Operating Mode from Standby Mode: 1.
