3-2 – Using the Gen II Analyzer
Chapter 3
Revision 2.10, April 20
Note that some fields are formatted to accept numeric values only. Multiple presses of a key
while the cursor is in such a field will produce multiples of the numeric key value only.
The insert position of the character being typed is indicated on screen by the cursor. The cursor
may be moved to any position in the current field using the [
] or [
] keys. If placed in an
existing text string, a key stroke of any multi-character key will insert the character into the
string to the left of the current cursor position and move existing text to the right one-character
position.

– Filling in Fields
Data is entered into areas of the screen called fields.
Some fields are represented by boxes with pointed ends (< >). These fields are called “toggle”
fields because you must use the [
] or [
] keys to toggle, or move, between several preset
selections available in the field.
Some of the fields are represented by boxes that have square-ends ([ ]). The square-end boxes are
text entry boxes. You must enter or edit text in these boxes using the keys as described in the
previous section. If you wish to change text already in place in these fields, place the cursor in
the field you wish to change then press the [BACKSPACE] key once for each character in the
field you wish to remove and replace.
Use the [
] and [
] keys to move from field to field.

– Loading a Setup
A “Setup” is a group of instructions defined by the user, downloaded from the ACES web site, or
acquired from another user and stored in the analyzers’ memory for rapid analyzer configuration.
This group of instructions, combined with certain optional information and analyzer-calculated
data, allows the analyzer to be custom-configured for virtually any engine/airframe combination
in a matter of minutes following initial entry of the information.
