The Electronic Module cc











Functions

Some values have to be entered such as Fuel on board before a flight and some parameter settings. To reduce the number of switches required to operate the instrument, all controls are
done via a 5 position navigation switch. The 5 positions on the switch are called TOP, BOTTOM, LEFT, RIGHT, and CENTER or ENTER key.

Information is scrolled in normal flight and recalculated every second. This information can be frozen by the push of any position of the button :

TANK - Quantity of fuel left in the tank.
FLOW - Current Fuel Flow per hour. Please note that fuel units of measurement are factory calibrated in Litres. They can be calibrated for any other measurement unit but will still display in decimals of the unit.
RANGE - GPS is required to know the current ground speed and calculate the distance left until the tank is empty.
TIME - Time endurance left is based on the current tank level and fuel flow until the tank is empty.
RESERVE - a GPS is required to provide the distance to your final planned destination and calculate the flight time left in tank after landing. RESERVE OUT is displayed if your destination can not be reached.


If a GPS is not connected, only TANK, FLOW and TIME are displayed.


Information that can be edited into the instrument :
TANK - Necessary if fuel is added to the tank.
PARAM A - Parameter to fine tune the accuracy of the fuel flow sensor.
PARAM B - Other parameter as above.
SCROLL - Time in seconds used for the pause between each information displayed.
GPS - A Y/N setting if a GPS is connected or not.
1/2 FLOW - A Y/N setting if the sensor is sensing half the fuel flow rate or not.
DST UNIT - A N/S/K setting if the destination units you want displayed are Nautical Miles,Statute Miles or Kilometers.
