Display item Description
1 Power (ON/OFF)
icon
When the gyro system is powered, the outer circle of this icon is gray; when the
icon is pressed, the circle turns green, indicating that the system is powered (basi-
cally that the motor drive is on) and running. If for any reason the stabilizer unit
cannot be turned on, the circle remains gray.
2 Precession
lock toggle icon
When the flywheel is accelerating and has not reached a minimum velocity (set
at 55 % of top speed), the precession lock toggle icon has no effect on preces-
sion, which remains locked; this condition is signalled by the presence of yellow
circle around the icon. Once the flywheel rotation speed has reached 55 % of top
speed, the circle goes blue, and the functionality of the icon is enabled.
A red circle indicates that precession is locked and no antiroll torque is generated.
By pressing the icon, the circle is red and precession is locked.
Pressing the icon again, the outer ring becomes blue, precession is unlocked and
antiroll torque is generated (and so on, thereby toggling functionality).
3 Menu icon By pressing this icon, it is possible to log into the various pages of the menu.
See figure 17.
