Clock Operations
The lower portion of the LCD window is dedicated to clock
and timing operations. Pushing the
SELECT button will
sequence the window from universal time (UT) to local time
(LT) to fl ight time (FT) to elapsed time (ET) and back again
to universal time. Pushing the
CONTROL button allows for
timing functions with in the four SELECT menus. Setting
procedures are as follows:
Setting Universal Times 1.
Use the SELECT button to select universal time
(UT). With the actual instrument, you would
simultaneously press both the
SELECT and
CONTROL buttons to enter the set mode. With the
ELITE model, press the SELECT & CONTROL
button as shown in picture to enter the set mode
with a single mouse click.
When ELITE is NOT in the FREEZE Mode, the tens of
hours digit will start fl ashing. The CONTROL button has
full control of the fl ashing digit, and each button push
increments the digit. Once the tens of hours is set the
SELECT button selects the next digit to be set. After the
last digit has been selected and set with the CONTROL
button, a fi nal push of the SELECT button exits the set
mode. The lighted annunciator will resume its normal
fl ashing, indicating the clock is running in universal time
mode.
Setting Local Times 2.
Use the SELECT button to select local time (LT).
Press the SELECT & CONTROL button with a
single mouse click to enter the set mode. The tens
of hours digit will start fl ashing. The set operation is
the same as for UT, except that minutes are already
synchronized and the UT clock cannot be set in
local time.
