Alarms
Irrespective of the possibility to program alarm thresholds for the "EX" values in Jeti
transmitters the VSpeak ECU Converter has the ability to set alarms (by using alarm codes) that
are ECU status depending. These alarms can also be announced by the Profibox as voice
messages.
As can be seen in the table, the alarms for FUEL, RPM, RPM2, LoSpeed and HiSpeed can be
switched OFF, if no alarm is to be given at BATT and EGT, the alarm thresholds can be set to
"inaccessible" values.
Permanently pending alarms, e.g. FUEL or BATT, max. 3 times repeated.
FUEL
The alarm Fuel is signaled when the fuel rest is lower than the FUEL set value.
BATT
The alarm BATT is signaled when the battery voltage is lower than the BATT set value.
RPM
(turbine)
The alarm RPM is signaled when the turbine rotation speed is lower than the RPM threshold
value.
The speed monitoring is started after at first exceeding RPM alarm threshold and ends with
PUMP = 0.00V.
The RPM alarm is suitable for signaling a "turbine flameout".
EGT
The alarm EGT is signaled if the temperature exceeds the value set at EGT.
RPM2
(2nd Shaft)
The alarm RPM2 is signaled when the 2nd Shaft rotation speed is lower than the RPM2
threshold value.
The speed monitoring is started after at first exceeding RPM2 alarm threshold and ends with
PUMP = 0.00V.
LoSpeed
The alarm LoSpeed is signaled when the true airspeed is lower than the LoSpeed threshold
value.
The speed monitoring is started after at first exceeding LoSpeed alarm threshold.
HiSpeed
The alarm HiSpeed is signaled if the true airspeed exceeds the value set at HiSpeed.
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 on input
1
and
"
2R
ECU" for
R
ight turbine ECU at the expander input
2
