Before using the fuel level indications it's necessary to calibrate
all the aircraft fuel tanks by following the procedure explained
in this chapter.
The calibration is divided in more calibration steps, in each step
you will fill the tanks with predetermined fuel quantity; the
calibration ends when the tank is completely filled.
The parameters available in the calibration menu are:
●
Cal Steps: With this parameter it's possible to choose the fuel
quantity to add at each calibration step. Choose a proper value
considering the tanks capacity and how many calibration steps
you want to execute.
For example with a 40 liters tank and “Calibration fuel step”
set to 2 it's required 40 / 2 = 20 calibration steps. Consider
also that the maximum number of calibration steps that is
possible to store in memory for every tank is 50.
The “Cal. steps” parameter is used for all the tanks
calibrations, don’t modify it once you have choosed a value
(range:1~100 lt, default=2 lt).
●
mV Steps: Minimum thresold to detect fuel sensor movements
(default = 20, don't modify this value).
●
DRES Filter: Filter for DRES sensors only. Not used for the
other sensor types.
