Flight Simulator
Your Apollo SL50/60 is provided with a Flight
Simulation program that allows you to “fly” your
unit by simulating your ground speed. This section
describes the procedures used to run the Flight
Simulator, and re-install the unit.
About the
Flight
Simulator
The Flight Simulator is programmed into your
Apollo SL50/60 at the factory. Your Apollo must
be removed from the front panel of your aircraft
and connected to a power supply with the
appropriate power cable. The Flight Simulator is
activated during start up.
The Apollo SL50/60 “asks” you to input a ground
speed and altitude each time it is powered-up. This
speed and altitude information will remain constant
throughout the simulation. The Apollo SL50/60
uses a simulated GPS sensor to provide position,
speed, and course information. As no external
sensors are connected while the simulation is
running, no information is displayed about external
sensors. The simulated altitude does not change
while the Flight Simulator is running.
The Apollo SL50/60 uses the position of the first
From waypoint in the Active flight plan as the
initial position and simulates flight along the
desired track to each successive To waypoint.
While “en route,” the Apollo SL50/60 generates
updated navigation information and alert messages
consistent with the simulated flight path. When the
Apollo SL50/60 “arrives” at the final waypoint of
your flight plan, it stops waypoint sequencing. The
Apollo SL50/60 continues to simulate flight past
the waypoint and provides bearing and distance
information to the last To waypoint.
