System Turn On
Turn key clockwise to the on position. Press the
“ON/OFF”
push button of the panel. The alarm lamp will
flash briefly. If the lamp does not flash it should be rectified prior to flight as the flashing lamp indicates an
over temperature situation.
The display will light up prompting you to reset the flight duration to zero by pressing
“QNH+”
. If the fuel
flow option is installed, to reset the accumulated fuel consumed press
“QNH-“
.
After a few seconds the
different engine measurement indications will be displayed. The green LED on the capture module
should be continually flashing.
The preset engine limits can be checked against the limits outlined in section 2.4.2 by noting the position
of the larger square bars on the LCD display for the particular gauge.
Altimeter Adjustment
You can adjust the barometric pressure as follows:
QNE - Depress both buttons
↑↓
on the left of the instrument simultaneously to set at 1013mb.
QNH - Depress
↑
to increase altitude pressure. Depress
↓
to decrease altitude pressure.
The pressure display is right under "ALT" in the center of the altimeter. The readout below pressure
display is a digital altimeter reading.
The preset limits can be checked against the limits outlined in section 2.4.2 by noting the position of the
larger square bars on the LCD display for the particular gauge.

At any time with the instrument turned on press and hold simultaneously the two QNH push buttons. After
a few seconds the displayed units system will change and be memorized.
One of these unit systems can be changed from:

Metric:
•
Altitude in metres with QNH in mbar
•
ASI in km/h
•
VSI in m/s
•
