1 Features
•
1.8” high resolution 160x128, sunlight readable, wide viewing angle, 1000 cd/m2 TFT LCD display
• G-force range of +-10g
• Records the maximum positive and negative g-forces encountered (typically during a flight) in permanent
memory, with a password protected reset facility
• Two independent cycle counters capture the amount of times a preset force has been exceeded
• Able to measure G-forces even if the instrument is not mounted exactly on the vertical axis of the aircraft
• Capable of displaying both UTC (Zulu time) and local time
• Time is maintained by an internal lithium battery which can be replaced by the user
• Can measure voltages up to 30V (compatible with both 12V and 24V aircraft supplies)
• Contains a programmable low/high voltage alarm to automatically detect alternator failures and bad
batteries
• Uses the MGL Avionics Magnetic Closed Loop Current Sensor to measure the aircrafts current load.
• *Contains a charge status indicator
• OAT can be shown in degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit
• Contains a programmable low/high OAT alarm
• Provides a 50 entry flight log that stores the start time and duration of each of the last 50 flights
• The flight timer can either be started using a front push button or from a remote input
• Stopwatch and timers can operate simultaneously to a programmable alarm
• Built in NMEA GPS Viewer
• Automatic or manual magnetic variation calculation
• Sunset and sunrise time display
• Displays time & date, GPS altitude, SOG, COG, latitude and longitude when using an external NMEA
compatible GPS receiver
• Includes a RS232 serial output for interfacing to external equipment e.g dataloggers etc.
• Standard 2 ¼” (57mm) aircraft enclosure (can be front or rear mounted)
• Rotary control plus 2 independent buttons for easy menu navigation and user input
• An external output activates when an alarm condition has been reached
• Wide input supply voltage range of 8 to 30V DC with built in voltage reversal and over voltage protection
for harsh electrical environments
• 1 year limited warranty
* Requires the MGL Avionics Magnetic Closed Loop Current Sensor (sold separately)
