Altimeter — Manual 2.2 Connections
2.2.1 Static Pressure -
Pst
Indu Altimeter must be connected to the static pressure source.
Static pressure source is usually obtained from pressure sources lo-
cated on the fuselage side surfaces or from the static port on the pitot
tube.
Locate the existing tube, cut it at an appropriate place and insert a
T junction. Install a new tube from junction to the instrument.
It is highly recommended to keep the static tubing as short as pos-
sible. The tubing must avoid sharp bends and twists. The tubing
must be airtight. Water must not be allowed to enter the tubing.
It is strongly recommended to label each tube before connecting to
Indu Altimeter. This will help a lot if you ever have to remove and
re-install the instrument.
2.2.2 CAN Bus -
CAN
Connection to the CAN bus is optional and is not required for the
normal operation.
Use standard RJ45 ethernet cable to connect it with other Kanardia
equipment.
When connected to the bus, Indu Altimeter will transmit altitude,
QNH and vario to other units connected to the bus. At the same time
it will serve as a data logger - it will log most of relevant information
provided on the bus.
Please note that CAN bus must be terminated. Typically, this means
that one of the connecting instruments must have a terminator plug
installed.
In addition, Indu Altimeter also provides limited power (about 1 A
at 12 V) for devices connected on the CAN bus. For example: to
power a slave Indu Vertical Speed Indicator you can connect it to
your Indu Altimeter via CAN bus.
