15 Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 Operating philosophy The philosophy behind all Flytec instruments is to keep everything as simple as possible. This is why each key has only one function, i.e. a function can be displayed and switched on or off with each key. In order to alter a function, you press and hold down the relevant function key. The setting to be changed will then flash and can be altered by pressing and .
Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 16 Commissioning Switch on the instrument with the On/Off switch. On being switched on, the instrument goes through a self-test routine and then enters run mode. When switched on, the instrument settings correspond to those valid when the instrument was last switched off. When first switched on, the instrument displays the approximate charging status of the batteries in the vario bar display.
17 Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 When the weather changes fast (e.g. cold fronts), air pressure can change in the course of a day by up to 5 mbar. This represents a change in altitude of 40 meters! Another method of calibrating an altimeter is by entering the current QNH. What is the QNH? In flying circles, a general zero point is needed to enable all aircraft at the same altitude to also have the same altitude on their altimeters. This joint basis is called the QNH.
Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 18 N. B.: Incorrect manipulation of the correction value of the pressure sensor will result in false altitude readings! Never alter the basic settings of the altimeter unless you have good reason to do so (in your own interest)! In option mode, the indicators OPTION and ALT 1 appear and the relevant number of the module is shown at the top of the display. The unit to be adjusted will flash.
19 Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 Vario Vario sound levels Two sound levels can be set or the sound system switched off completely by repeatedly pressing the key. While the key is pressed, a tone will sound at the desired level. 0-I-II 0-I-II Analog vario bar display The vario bar display has a range of ± 8 m/s in two scale passes. The scale unit always corresponds to 0.2 m/s. Up to 4 m/s , the bar display fills. If it displays more than 4 m/s (ascent), the ascent is displayed inverted, i.e.
Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 20 Vario option mode The integration time of the digital vario can be altered at the first level of option mode. The values are in 5-second steps between 5 and 35 seconds and appear flashing in the digital vario display. At setting 1, the digital vario is displayed without averaging and then runs parallel to the bar display. The values can be altered with the and the keys. VARIO VARIO 4 Sec.
21 Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 Speedometer General remarks A speed sensor (speedometer) can be purchased as an accessory. The speed sensors in the 3000 series can also be used with instruments in the 4000 series. The accuracy of a vane wheel sensor is highly dependent on its point of attachment. Additionally, the individual probes have an accuracy of approximately ±2.
Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 22 Time measurement and temperature display Clock time (real-time clock) In the lower display, the key is used to toggle between speed, time and MEMO display. The time, the date and the year can be set in setting mode. ALT 1 ALT 2 CHRONO Stopwatch (CHRONO) The stopwatch is displayed in the upper display. It can be started and stopped with the key. If the stopwatch has been started, the indicator CHRONO will flash.
23 Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 Time measurement and temperature display option mode The temperature display can be switched on or off at the first level of option mode. If it is switched on, the TEMP indicator will flash as well as a TIME indicator. When the temperature display is switched off, only the TIME indicator is on. The unit of the temperature display (° Celsius or ° Fahrenheit) can be selected at the second level using the key and the key.
Operating Instructions FLYTEC 4005 24 APPENDIX Scope of supply The following items are included: • FLYTEC 4005 instrument • Leg clip • Protective sleeve • Manual The following are available as accessories: • Various attachment fixtures • Various speed sensors Water damage If the instrument is damaged by water, remove the batteries at once. In the case of salt water, rinse the instrument thoroughly with handwarm fresh water.
