The Flightcell SmartHUB and Camera
The Flightcell SmartHUB is a Flight Data Recorder, recording critical flight data including
»
Video and ambient (cockpit) audio from one or two installed Cameras
»
Radio and ICS audio from the aircraft audio system
»
Flight data and exceedances from its inbuilt flight data recorder
Operating the SmartHUB and Camera
The SmartHUB will normally be powered up and down automatically with aircraft power.
The SmartHUB does have a power switch but should not normally be powered off manually
unless this is required by your operating procedures.
The SmartHUB and Camera are designed to operate automatically,
and don’t normally require
any input from flight or maintenance crew except to download stored files.
The SmartHUB user interface is comprised of an OLED display and a MENU button.
The SmartHUB MENU button is used to navigate through the SmartHUB screens. The SmartHUB
has a responsive user interface, so screens and options are only shown if the function is available
(e.g. the option to turn a Camera on or off is only shown if a Camera is connected).
The MENU button supports two actions, a short press and a long press. A short press is usually
used to advance between pages or through a list, and a long press to initiate and confirm an
action.
Press MENU to activate the display and access the SmartHUB screens.
Turning video on and off
If a Camera is connected to the SmartHUB, this option will be available by advancing through
the menu pages.
