SLIP INDICATOR:
It's a graphic indication of the lateral accelerations.
•
VERTICAL SPEED INDICATOR:
It include both graphic bar and numeric indications (absolute value). The upper part of the graphic scale indicate an ascent rate,
the lower part indicate a descent rate. The unit of measure can be feets/minute or meters/second (note that when in feets/minute
the indication mark on the graphic scale have only the thousands digit).
•
ALTIMETER:
It include both a tape indicator and a numeric indicator. The unit of measure can be feets or meters, the range of measure is
-1000~25000 feets (-300~ +7600 m). On the tape indicator the thousands digits are shown every 500 (i.e. 1500,2000, etc..)
while the numeric indications is always displayed completely.

To change the PRESSURE REFERENCE click the knob and then rotate it to change the numerical value.

STATUS INDICATOR
In the first line is showed the local time, as the GPS have the fix. To adjust the local time offset see the configuration menu,
chap.6.1.8, parameter “
Local time is UTC”
.
The second line can shows the following indications:
“
WARMUP
” : This word, in red color, is showed before the take-off if the ECLIPSE notice that not all the main measures are in the
green zones. The measures checked are: CAT, fuel pressure, oil pressure and temperature, all the CHTs. When all the measures
becomes in its green zone ECLIPSE will show the word “
READY
”, that disappear 30 seconds after take-off and is replaced by the
flight timer (indicated with FT).
•
GROUND SPEED
The ground speed is read from the GPS, the unit of measure is the same of the air speed indicator. If the GPS is not connected it
will show the “NO GPS” indication, if the GPS don't have the fix it will show “NO FIX”.
•
WIND SPEED & DIRECTION
Wind speed (WS) is indicated with the same unit of measure of the air speed. Wind direction (WD) is represented graphically by
an arrow and is also indicated in degrees (WD: 0~360°).
NOTE
: For the proper operation of this indicator it's necessary a correct magnetic calibration (see chap.7.1) and a correct
installation and calibration of the pitot line.
FUNCTIONS MENU AVAILABLE (press any key to display the menu):
-
EIS
: to switch to the EIS page (only for ECLIPSE IFIS)
-
ZERO PITCH
: Reset the pitch of the attitude indicator.
This function must be used only when the aircraft is in
leveled flight, never use it to reset the horizon during other flight attitude.
-
TRK
or
HDG
: to switch between Heading/Tracking compass indications.
-
RESET G
: to reset the peak accelerations.
-
DIMMER
: display brightness adjustment (1=min. brightness, 10=max. brightness)
-
HDG BUG/AP
: to set the position of the bug related to compass indication or insert autopilot system (if installed). Turn the
knob to adjust in steps of 1° the bug position on the compass tape indicator and press “Done” to confirm.
Alternatively it's possible to press the “On Course” button to set bug to the actual Heading/Tracking. If the actual bug
is out of the displayed scale a numeric indication is shown on the left or right limit, that indicate the actual position of
the bug.
-
ALT BUG
: to set the position of the bug related to altimeter indication. Turn the knob to adjust in steps of 5 feets the
