6. Use of the UniDisplay
For connection of the GPS-Logger 2, firmware v1.25 or higher must used in the UniDisplay.
An update for the UniDisplay can be downloaded free of charge from our homepage
(
www.sm-modelbau.de
).
The UniDisplay and GPS-Logger 2 are connected with the cable provided with the display.
The connector location can be seen on the top of the GPS-Logger 2 and is labelled
“COM”.
The cable connection can be made either way round, which end is used is irrelevant.
The display is powered by the GPS-Logger 2 and turns on automatically as soon as the
GPS-Logger 2 is connected. The display can be attached at any time to the GPS-Logger 2.
The GPS-Logger 2 must therefore be supplied with power either via an attached receiver or
directly with a receiver battery.
In FASSTest, JR DMSS and FrSky operation the UniDisplay only works if already plugged in
when switching on. The telemetry is only activated when the UniDisplay is unplugged again.
Menu:
First the menu is activated. The menu options can be selected with
the “plus” and “Minus” buttons, and the appropriate item selected
with “Enter.

: .
•
“Plus”
starts and stops the recording.
•
“Minus”
changes between Live/MIN/MAX values.
•
“Enter”
changes between the Live screens 1, 2 and 3.
•
“Esc”
changes back to the menu.
Top right is the current file number. Including changes in the past,
Time, date and time.
“Speed”
shows the genuine 3D speed, thus speed in relation to
base plus vertical speed!
“Hoehe”
is the barometric height in relation to the starting point.
“Strecke”
is the travelled (flight path) distance.
At
“Pos”
“the current position of the GPS is seen in relation to the
starting point. The air line distance and the angle in relation to north
are shown.
Live data display screen 2:
A press of
“Enter”
moves to the next screen with more data.
“GPS”
shows the GPS altitude from sea level (asl). Also shown are
latitude (Breit) and longitude (Laeng) of the current GPS position.
“GZ”
represents the glide ratio of the last 100 m flight path.
Following is the calculated average speed on these 100 m.
If no value for the glide can be indicated (model climbing),
“—“
appears here. Finally the current air pressure measured by the
barometric pressure sensor is shown in the last line.
