1.6 Other Considerations Regarding the AEOLUS-SENSE   

The AEOLUS-SENSE complies fully with applicable Electronic Emissions and Flame Resistance 
standards. More specifically: 

 

Electronic Emissions: The AEOLUS-SENSE deploys a WiFi network with transmitter 
power 9mW EIRP. Accordingly, it complies fully with the 10mW limit imposed by PS-
ANM-25-13 and part 15 of FCC rules. 

 

Flame Resistance: Materials, design and construction of the AEOLUS-SENSE are flame 
resistant and in compliance with CAR regulation 3. 

 

2 AEOLUS-SENSE Maintenance 

AEOLUS-SENSE has been designed and manufactured for long and maintenance-free 
operation. Still, care must be applied for the following: 

 

AEOLUS-SENSE Compass: Any replacement and/or relocation of metallic items in the 
cockpit may require re-calibration of the Compass. Please follow the steps outlined in 
section 1.4 of the current document for Compass calibration. 

 

3 Use Limitations and Abnormal Operation 

The temperature and voltage operational ranges of AEOLUS-SENSE are as follows:

 

Temperature range: 

-20C to 65C      

or

 

-4F to 149F

 

Operation Voltage:

 10-32Vdc

 

Operation Current: 

0.5A, and max 3A during tablet charging. Please use a fuse of 5A.

 

 Inflight power reset:

 in case of inflight power reset or if you turn on the unit during the flight after 

losing your main systems, please note that there is 

no limitation or constraint

 of attitude for correct 

operation of the AEOLUS-SENSE . This means that the AEOLUS-SENSE will recover in any flight 
attitude, such as sharp turns, strong turbulence, etc. No constraint is imposed of straight and leveled 
flight for recovery, which sometimes, in IMC is impossible to know. In this case, if you don’t have a 
visual reference, please wait for about 40 to 60 secs for full recovery of the Artificial Horizon.

 

Loss of GPS or Pitot/static: 

our system uses both GPS and pitot/static for correct attitude 

indication. In case of loss of one of them, correct operation relays on the other one. If you lose both, 
then operation is based on less attitude accurate information provided by other inertial sensors and, 
depending on the kind of flight, there will be a slight drift after 15 to 30 mins.
