7.14 Ignis Controls
Figure 7.14: Ignis Menu.
Touching the ignition sphere icon at the top right of the screen will open the Ignis
Menu, shown in Figure 7.14. This displays the current status of Ignis, as well as the
temperature sensor reading, and the battery voltage. The Ignis’s status could display the
following messages:
HIGH TEMP:
Ignis’s temperature sensor is detecting a high temperature above the
injection chamber. An ignition sphere may have caught fire inside the dropper. Trigger
an emergency release to separate the dropper from the rest of the aircraft. The ellipsis
would display other information about Ignis’s status.
IDLE:
Ignis is currently idle, and has no errors to report.
IDLE (STOPPED B/C ...):
Ignis is currently idle, but stopped dropping because of an error.
The ellipsis would display the reason why Ignis stopped. Try restarting dropping.
DROPPING:
Ignis is dropping.
DISARMED BY CONTROL BAR:
The control bar Arm/Disarm switch is in the Disarm
position. The switch must be moved to the Arm position in order to start dropping.
FLYING OUTSIDE GEOFENCE:
Dropping was disabled because the drone is flying in an
area that is not enclosed by a geofence. Fly back inside the geofence, or modify the
geofence to include the current flight area.
