Emsis — Manual

Emsis Setup Screen
Rotor RPM threshold shall be defined for helicopters and gyro-
planes only. In order to detect the landing situation, the logger
monitors two things: IAS and rotor RPMs. They both must be
below the specified thresholds in order to detect the landing.
This prevents false landing detections, which happen if Rotor
RPM threshold is not used.
Engine RPM threshold is used to detect the engine start or
stop event.
Up/Down
The function of
up
and
down
buttons can be configured.
Two options are available:
setting brightness,
setting QNH. In this case, a
Brightness
menu item becomes
available from the
Setup
screen.
Set Alt & IAS Offset
Modern digital sensors that are used for
the IAS and altitude measurements may drift a little bit over time,
especially after being exposed to a prolonged period of severe cold.
The window illustrated in Figure 26 allows appropriate adjustment.
Altitude: Change the offset until the altitude below the offset
frame matches the reference altitude (Alt) or static pressure
(SP). The reference values are obtained using a reference al-
timeter set to 1013 hPa.
Airspeed: Change the offset until the differential pressure shows
zero.
