SAMPLE AIR
By pressing "1" (SAMPLE AIR) from the MAIN menu the unit displays
all the sampled air parameters and the PREDICTION in the following
format:
DATE
TIME
TEMP
HUMIDITY
PRESSURE
OXYGEN (if equipped)
ALTITUDE
PREDICTION (ET or TS)
After 2 seconds the following is displayed:
DATE
TIME
WIND SPEED
WIND GUST WIND DIRECTION
DEW POINT or GOW
VAPOR PRESSURE
CF
PREDICTION (ET or TS)
Wind information will only be shown if WIND is Enabled (See WIND SETUP) and
Wind Sensors are installed.
WIND DIRECTION:
H-HEAD T-TAIL C-CROSS CT-CROSS TAIL CH-CROSS HEAD
Pressing the “ENTER” key while viewing current data will
HOLD
the
data to be used for entering runs. To view the “Held” data you can press
the HOLD key when you are at the main menu.
The third and fourth line on the display will alternate from showing
Pressure(“) and Oxygen(%) to Dew Point(°F) and Vapor Pressure(“) and
Density Altitude(DA) to Horsepower Correction Factor (CF). Dew Point
can be replaced to show Grains of Water (GOW). See SETUP.
NOTE: Barometric Pressure
The Pressure reading is “Absolute”, which means it will
NOT
agree with
the weather channel or local forecast. This is due to the fact that the
local forecast is gives a corrected pressure reading that is compensated
back down to sea level. If you were to stand at your local airport and dig
a hole down to sea level the PerformAIRE pressure reading would then
agree with the local airport reading!
The PREDICTION will be shown only after two runs in ET mode and
three runs in TS mode have been stored in the selected database. If less
runs have been stored "
***
" will appear in the place of the
PREDICTION value.
