13.1
Engine Model
Engine model shall be selected first. This tells Daqu if this is a classical engine
or it has some kind of ECU (Rotax iS, UL-Power, D-Motor, . . . ). Aetos uses
this info to load default parameter settings for the engine, section 11.1. For
some engines it also tells which software fuel flow calculation models shall be
used (It is used only when fuel flow sensor is not present.)
The
Generic engine
option can be used for any engine any is normally used
with Lycomming, Continental . . .
Some ECU base engines provide fuel flow information. For all others, a fuel
flow sensor is recommended even for engines where a software fuel flow model
exists.
13.2
Switch Function
This option is available only when miniDaqu is connected to the CAN bus.
Standard Daqu does not have this possibility.
