1 Features
•
Large 1.8” high resolution 160x128, sunlight readable, wide viewing angle, 1000 cd/m2 TFT LCD display
• A choice of 3 different display screens with either an Altitude, VSI or Airspeed tape
• An internal high accuracy 24 bit digital altitude sensor calculates altitude from –1500 ft up to a maximum
of 35000 ft (-457m to 10668m)
• The ASV-1 outputs various formatted RS232 serial data protocols compatible with serial input transpon-
ders such as that from Garmin, Magellan, Northstar, Trimble, Microair etc.
• Provides a parallel Gillham code interface for transponders when used in combination with the MGL
Avionics CNV-ALT
• Built in encoder test function
• The altimeter can display altitude in feet or meters
• Local pressure can be set in millibars or inches of mercury
• Contains a wide range VSI indicator from +/-20 ft/min to as high as +/-10000 ft/min
• VSI units can be in feet/minute (ft/min) or in meters/second (m/s)
• The ASV-1 measures airspeed from 20mph to 250mph (Version 1)
• The ASV-1 measures airspeed from 20mph to 350mph (Version 2)
• The ASV-1HS (High Speed version) measures airspeed from 20mph to 320mph
• Both units are well suited to slow aircraft due to very good sensitivity and linearity at low air speeds
• Includes a flight timer since takeoff
• Airspeed units can be set to miles per hour (mph), kilometer per hour (km/h) or nautical miles per hour
(kts)
• Contains a programmable Vs and Vne airspeed alarm output
• Provides a 50 entry flight log that stores duration of each of the last 50 flights. The flight timer can either
be started automatically or by using a front push button
• Records maximum airspeed reached in permanent memory
• Includes a RS232 serial output for interfacing to external equipment e.g dataloggers, CNV-ALT etc.
• Standard 2 1/4” (57mm) aircraft enclosure (can be front or rear mounted)
• Rotary control plus 2 independent buttons for easy menu navigation and user input
• Wide input supply voltage range of 8 to 30V DC
• 1 year limited warranty
