Fuel planning figures can be entered and
displayed based upon one of three possible
configurations:
1) No fuel sensors connected - In this instance
fuel flow is manually entered and is used
to calculate fuel on board. When fuel flow
or fuel on board is manually entered, the
figures are retained the next time the page
is displayed (with fuel on board continuously
recalculated).
2) Fuel flow sensor installed, but no fuel on board
sensor - Fuel on board is manually entered.
Fuel flow is automatically provided by sensor.
If fuel flow is manually entered (to override
the sensor), it does not affect the FOB figure
and is not retained the next time the page is
displayed.
3) Fuel flow and fuel on board sensors installed
- Fuel flow and fuel on board are automatically
provided by sensors. Fuel on board can NOT
be entered manually. Fuel flow can be entered
manually, but does not affect the FOB figure
and is not retained the next time the page is
displayed.
