Equipment Limitations
The conditions and tests required for STC
approval of skyBeacon are minimum
performance standards. The installer must
determine if the conditions are appropriate for
installation on a specific aircraft.
Continued Airworthiness
There is no requirement for periodic service,
inspection or preventative maintenance for
continued airworthiness of SkyBeacon.
2020 Regulatory Compliance
SkyBeacon meets the Minimum Operational
Performance Standards of DO-282B Class B1S,
and meets the performance requirements of
TSO-C154c. When installed in accordance with
the installation instructions of this guide, the
device complies with the aircraft requirements of
14 CFR 91.227.
Installation Procedures
Configuration Procedures
SkyBeacon is a wingtip, forward, left position
light. The assembly should be mounted as far
outboard on the aircraft as practical, parallel to
the vertical and horizontal centerlines of the
aircraft. Ensure that when mounted the fin and
top of the assembly are free from obstructions.
1. Remove the existing left position light.
2. Detach the power wire(s).
3. Connect the red wire to the switched power
wire.
4. SkyBeacon is grounded to the aircraft structure
via the mounting screws. However, it may be
necessary to connect the black wire to the
airframe ground.
5. Mount skyBeacon using the three supplied 632 screws.
Changes to the NAV circuit breaker rating are not
required.
Download the “uAvionix skyBeacon Installer” app
from the IOS App store or Google Play.

AUTOMATIC CONFIGURATION
The app has an automatic configuration mode,
where the skyBeacon parameters can be
automatically configured by just entering the tail
number of the aircraft and ADS-B in capability.
MANUAL CONFIGURATION
Anonymous Mode:
When checked, this enables the EchoUAT to
transmit a self-assigned ICAO and sets a random
Call Sign when the squawk code matches the
defined VFR squawk code (1200).
Call Sign:
The CALL SIGN can be up to an 8 digit code that
corresponds to the tail number of the aircraft. (09, A-F). Note: This is typically your aircraft Nnumber, unless otherwise advised by the FAA or
ATC.
ICAO Number:
The ICAO address is a 24-bit number issued to the
aircraft by the registration authority of the
aircraft. These addresses are usually written as a
6-digit hexadecimal number.
Emitter Type:
To assist ATC tracking of aircraft, an aircraft
category can be transmitted. Select the aircraft
category that most closely matches the aircraft.
Vso (knots):
This parameter allows skyBeacon to
automatically switch between airborne and
ground modes.
ADS-B In Capability:
Sets the ADS-B in equipment capability reporting.
MONITOR
The monitor screen allows the installer to check
the configuration parameters and internal
operation of skyBeacon such as the GPS position
and transponder reply decoder. Note that
skyBeacon needs a GPS fix before the
transponder’s squawk and altitude can be
correctly decoded.
