The main menu
The main menu is entered from the main instrument display by pressing the menu key.
The main menu is your route to accessing several additional functions as well as activating the
many setup and configuration menus and functions.
Flight…
This menu entry shows you your current flight detect status if you have automatic flight detect
enabled. The above display would be shown if you are in flight.
If you are using manual flight start and stop, then this menu entry will allow you to start and stop
flights. In this case automatic flight detect is disabled.
We recommend that you use automatic flight detect.
Flight detection is relevant for logging of flights for your built in flight log.
Pilot for flight log:
When a flight ends the flight information is written to the built in flight log. Each log entry contains
a field containing the pilot number as selected in this field.
This can be used to keep track of flight times for several pilots when the aircraft is shared.
View Flight Log
This function allows you to view the logged flight details. The Ultra will maintain a log of the last
200 flights. The log can also be downloaded to a PC using the free flight log program from MGL
Avionics (download from the website
www.MGLAvionics.co.za
). The log can be downloaded by
direct cable connection using an airtalk to PC cable or you can use a MGL Avionics flight log
download key device to transfer flight log data from your aircraft to your PC at home.
The range calculator
The Stratomaster Ultra includes a useful range calculator if you have at minimum a fuel flow
sender.
