G.1 Aircraft Identification (AI or FN)
With flight plan: The definition out of the flight plan:
e.g. Flight Number or Company Call Sign
Without flight plan (VFR): Tail Number (Call Sign)
The indication of AI in the bottom line of the display is in mode SBY and ON
only if selected in configuration menu. The Aircraft Identifier (fixed) is availa-
ble in any mode after pressing SEL button (G) and turning the rotary encoder
(B). The default value for AI is the Tail Number of the aircraft and is stored in
the Address Module.
If a flight plan exists, it has to be checked, which AI has to be used. If a Flight
Number is assigned it has to be entered. If a Company Call Sign is mentioned,
this has to be entered. To enter it see below. It will be stored in the EEPROM
of the control head. In this case the indication on the display changes to FN
(Flight Number). If the Call Sign (Tail Number) is mentioned, no change, as it
is the default setting from the Address Module.

dure without storing, push the SEL button (G).

hand side oriented). No dashes or spaces shall be included. If the FN con-
sists of less than 7 characters, the remaining characters on the right side
