“Port 3 RS232 Input/Output/Baud:”: This port is setup in combinations of inputs, outputs and baud rates.
As with most ports the baud rate for the input and output must be the same. The following input and output
selections are available (the baud rate will be appropriate for the selection):
Inputs: Off - The input may be set to Off.
EDC#2 - A second EDC may be added to this port to increase capability.
FADEC - Aerosance FADEC data may be monitored on this port.
CO-Guard - CO-Guardian Carbon Monoxide Detector data may be monitored on this port.
Outputs: Off - There are no outputs available.
If the MVP was ordered with any of the Optional Interfaces the following additional input and output
selections may be available (the baud rate will be appropriate for the selection):
Inputs: Same as above.
Outputs: Same as above plus:
Chelton - Chelton engine data may be transmitted to a Chelton EFIS unit.
Real Time - Real Time Data may be transmitted for telemetry, OP Technologies, etc.
All Real Time outputs require a correctly configured serial protocol file.
“One Cycle ......”: This line allows you to set how a cycle is recorded. To record engine cycles, set the “N1
above” field value just above the max N1 reached with no fuel (around 35%). Set the “then below” field to a
very low value (around 1%).
To record landing/takeoff cycles, set the “N1 above” field to a
value reached just after takeoff (around 98%). This should be
below the value of N1 reached during reverse thrust. Set the
“then below” field to a value just above N1 at shunt down
(around 60%). This value should be above N1 reached
during landing before reverse thrust.
“Engine Hours ....”: This line allows you to set the level N1
must reach before engine hours are recorded (around 35%).
The total Engine Hours may also be set on this line. Engine
Hours should only be changed with the engine off. Engine
Hours is a measurement of the total time the engine has run.
“Flight Timer Start ...” and “Flight Timer Stop ...”:
These two fields control the N1 values at which the “Flt Timer” (found on the Timer Screen) starts and stops.
The “Flt Timer” starts, stops, resets and times the flight automatically. The objective is to set the Start N1 level
so the flight timer starts as you liftoff (around 98%) and to set the Stop N1 value so the timer stops as you pull
off the runway (around 70%).
