All data are time-stamped. The EDM-760/790 Long Term Memory
contains a real-time clock that may be reset to local time when you
initially program your instrument. You may also program an aircraft id
that will appear in the output data file. The aircraft id can be your aircraft
registration number or your name. Initially the aircraft id is set to the
EDM-760/790's serial number.
You may change the recording interval from 2 to 500 seconds, even in
flight. When you change the interval in flight, the current flight file is
closed and a new flight file is created with the new recording interval.
At power on, the EDM-760/790 will execute its self test and then display
the date (1.12.99), the time (13.26), the percentage of memory filled
since the last save (FULL 24), and the Aircraft ID.
