The FP-5L can be set up to display raw horsepower by using the following procedure:
A. Record the Fuel Flow at 75% Power as described above. This value will be designated FF@75%
rich.
B. Program the Fuel Flow Setting in the FP-5L using the following formula:
FF@75% rich x 75
Fuel Flow Setting = ---------------------------------------------------------------
HPmax (max horsepower of your engine) x .75
Note: For most spark ignition piston engines this fuel flow setting will be around 7.0 gallons/hr.
6. PRESS Channel Fuel Pressure:
The following settings configures the Pressure Channel:
P0 - Disables the PRESS display.
P1 - Configures the PRESS input for a PT-30GA pressure transducer.
P2 - Configures the PRESS input for a PT-100GA pressure transducer.
P3 - Configures the PRESS input for custom pressure transducer setup by E.I.
7. GPS Receive Format:
The FP-5L automatically configures the GPS input based on the data being received.
8. GPS Transmit Format:
The GPS Transmit Format configures the FP-5L to transmit data to a GPS. The data transmitted may or
may not be used by your GPS (check your GPS Operating Manual). The FP-5L GPS output port will only be
enabled when the GPS Receive Format has been set to " In1." For all transmit formats the baud rate is
9600.
The GPS Transmit Format may be set for the following:
Ot0 - Disables the output port. If your GPS is not going to use the FP-5L
transmitted data, set the GPS Transmit Format to " Ot0."
Ot1 - Outputs the older Shadin fuel flow data. Works with many older
Arnav, King and newer Garmin GPS units.
Ot2 - Outputs the Shadin fuel flow sentence. Works with Garmin and many other units.
Ot3 - Outputs a modified Shadin Fuel/Airdata sentence. Works with many UPS GPS units.
Ot4 - Outputs the Shadin Z format.
