FUEL consumption
The VSpeak ECU converter can calculate the current fuel flow (F-FLOW) and the fuel
consumption (FUEL) on the basis of the turbine pump voltage. The required parameters can be
adjusted in "F-flow / Pump".
Tips for determining the fuel flow rate can be found in the appendix of these operating
instructions.
Fueltank size is the capacity of the main tank in ml. The tank size is required for the calculation
of the alarm for the fuel consumption (see above alarms: F RES).
Jeti EX sensor name
In a 2-turbine model 2 VSpeak ECU converter can be used on Jeti Systems via an expander or
CentralBox. The EX names are:
"
1L
ECU" for
L
eft turbine ECU converter on input
1
and
"
2R
ECU" for
R
ight turbine ECU converter at the expander input
2
.
Taxi Tank
For models where a taxi tank is plugged into the main tank until the model is lifted off, set
"Taxi = ON". If the turbine is "Running", then when THROTTLE = 80% is exceeded for the
second time
, the FUEL will "reset", ie the consumed FUEL is only once set to "0" again at this
time.

Expandermenu
If the VSpeak ECU Converter is connected to an
Expander or Centralbox and the ECU Converter display
is activated with the
Right button, the only way back
to the expander menu is pressing
Left button in
turbine data display.
2.1.3
Profibox - autonomous telemetry system for PBS turbine
Using a Jeti Profibox incl. RSat receiver and the VSpeak ECU converter the telemetry data
from a PBS turbine can be transferred completely self-sufficient to the pilot. Not only the
settings using the Profibox can be made, as was shown in the previous chapters - all EX-data
and the important alarms are displayed: EGT, fuel consumption, turbine battery voltage . . . are
given as voice messages again.
