Vertical Power VP-X Integration and Configuration

SkyView System Installation Guide - Revision R 13-3

 Choose an unused serial port on each display to connect the VP-X to. Note that both the

TX and RX sides of the serial port are needed, and both the RX and TX lines must be

connected to all displays in parallel. It is required to use the same numerical serial port

on all displays.

 Connect the VP-X serial TX wire from VP-X connector J1, pin 20 to the SkyView serial RX

of your choosing. If you have multiple displays, the VP-X TX wire must be connected to

the same serial RX wire on each display.

 Connect the VP-X serial RX wire from VP-X connector J1, pin 22 to the SkyView serial TX

of your choosing. If you have multiple displays, the VP-X RX wire must be connected to

the same serial TX wire on each display.

 Connect VP-X the VP-X ground wire from VP-X connector J1, pin 21 any of the ground

wires on the SkyView D37 connector (any of pins 21-24)

 Record the SkyView serial port that you have chosen on each display as you will need to

configure it later for use with the VP-X.

Serial Port Setup

Before the VP-X SETUP menu can be accessed, the SkyView system must be licensed to use the

VP-X features, and VP-X should additionally be set up as a serial device on each SkyView display

on the system. To configure your SkyView displays’ serial ports to work with the VP-X:

 Go to SETUP MENU > SYSTEM SETUP > SERIAL PORT SETUP.

 Navigate to the serial port that you physically connected the VP=X module to in the

previous steps.

 Select VP-X. Note that other fields are automatically configured and cannot be changed.

Press ACCEPT.

 Exit SETUP. Repeat on any other displays on your SkyView system.

VP-X Settings

Most VP-X setup – such as setting circuit breaker limits - is NOT done via SkyView, but instead

via a Windows-based application called VP-X Configurator. See your Vertical Power

documentation for full VP-X installation and setup information.

Though the VP-X’s trim and flaps calibrations are not used by SkyView, leaving any

of the VP-X trim or flaps end points or neutral positions to “0” in the VP-X

Configuration program will cause SkyView’s trim or flaps indications to not display

properly. To avoid this, set all of the trim and flaps end points and neutral points

to “1” in the VP-X Configurator.
