“Flt Timer:” The Flight Timer automatically times each flight. The Flight Timer is reset and started when the
RPM exceeds 2000. The Flight Timer is stopped when the RPM drops below 1200. The start and stop
RPM settings may be changed in the “Engine Type, Ports, Timers, etc. Setup” screen (found in section 6.2.1
of this manual). To the right of the displayed Flight Time is the status of the timer.
“Voice File:” The Voice File field allows you to select the voice to be activated when the Up Timer reaches
the reoccurring alarm and/or the Down Timer reaches 00:00.
The Up, Down and Flight Timers can be viewed and controlled in the lower center section of the Main Engine
Screen.
4.6 “Clock and Hour Meters” Screen:
The “Clock and Hour Meter” screen displays Today’s Date, Local
Time, Zulu Time (UTC), Tach Time and Engine Hours. In most time
zones, the minutes portion of Local Time will be the same as the
minutes portion of Zulu Time. For these time zones the MVP allows
you to lock Local minutes to Zulu minutes.
Note: Today’s Date and Local Time are used to time stamp stored
engine data records.
The “# Cycles” can be setup to count airframe (takeoff / landing)
cycles or engine start cycles. The value of “# Cycles” is based N1.
When a preset high value of N1 is reached the “Status” field will
display “Armed.” Then, when a preset low value of N1 is reached
the “Status” field will display nothing and the value of “# Cycles” will be incremented by one.
The preset high and low values of N1 are set in the “Engine Data, Ports, Timers, etc. Setup” screen (see section
6.2.1). This screen is password protected.
The “Engine Hours” field is base on time the engine is operated above a preset value of N1. This preset value of
N1 is set in the “Engine Data, Ports, Timers, etc. Setup” screen
(see section 6.2.1). This screen is password protected.
4.7 “Weight and Balance” Screen:
The “Weight and Balance” screen provides a quick and easy way of
performing a weight and balance calculation for your aircraft. It is
imperative that the correct data is set up in the “Weight and Balance
Setup” screen (found in section 6.2.3 of this manual) before using
this screen. Also, the MVP calculations must be verified as
accurate for many different scenarios before using this screen.
When using this screen be sure to enter all the weight added to the
aircraft, including fuel.
