For example, to type the number “5”, press the key once, wait for two seconds. The number
“5” should appear on the screen. To type the letter “N”, press the key three times rapidly, and
then wait for two seconds. The letter “N” should appear on the screen.
The insert position of the character being typed is indicated on screen by the cursor. The
cursor may be moved to any position in the current field using the left or right arrow keys. If
placed in an existing text string, a key stroke of any alpha numeric character key will insert
the character into the string at the current cursor position and move existing text to the right
one character position.
3.1.2. - Filling in Fields
Data is entered into areas of the screen called fields.
Some fields are represented by boxes with pointed ends (<>). These fields are called “toggle”
fields because you must use the [⇐ ⇒] keys to toggle, or move, between several preset
selections available in the field.
Some of the fields are represented by boxes that have square-ends ([ ]). The square-end boxes
are text entry boxes. You must enter or edit text in these boxes using the keys as described in
the previous section. If you wish to change text already in place in these fields, place the
cursor in the field you wish to change then press the [CLR] key once for each character in the
field you wish to remove and replace.
Use the [⇑ ] and [⇓] keys to move from field to field.
3.2. - Loading a Setup
A “Setup” is a group of instructions defined by you, the user, downloaded from the ACES
web site, or acquired from another user and stored in the analyzers’ memory for rapid
analyzer configuration. This group of instructions combined with certain optional information
and analyzer-calculated data allows the analyzer to be custom-configured for virtually any
engine/airframe combination in a matter of seconds following initial entry of the information.
See the ACES AvTrend User Manual for specific instruction on downloading setups from the
ACES web site.
Steps in the process of loading and using various setups are explained throughout Chapters 4
through 14 of this manual which address each of the main categories of the analyzer’s
functions. All of the main categories of the analyzer’s functions are accessed from the
analyzer’s main menu and directly correspond to selections on this menu.
