circuit that can cause leaks or blown tubes. Modifying this parameter is similar to

reducing the battery voltage, so the accel and decal times will be modified. The most

ideal is to have the limit set at the lowest and still be able to reach full max RPM, run

the engine, check and annotate the Pw of the pump displayed on the first screen

when the engine is running at full power and then use this value as pump limit,

increasing it in a 15%-20% to give a bit of margin for weak batteries and pump wear.

Once the new value set, adjust the accel and decel delays for best engine handling.

List of FADEC STATUS message codes

Here is a list of possible messages shown on the data terminal screen and their

meaning.

TrimLow: Indicates that the signal received from the transmitter corresponds to the

lowered trim, that is to say, engine OFF.

Ready: Indicates that the engine is ready for starting, and that the transmitter signal

corresponds to IDLE, (green LED lit)

StickLo!: This indicates that the throttle stick is in the IDLE position, the engine will

not start with the stick in this position.

Glow Test: Verifying of glow plug

StartOn: Test of the starter

Ignition: Gas ignition phase.

Preheat: Phase of heating of the combustion chamber after detecting gas ignition.

FuelRamp: Phase of fuel acceleration until IDLE IS reached.

Running: Engine working correctly, pilot have full control of engine power.

Stop: Engine off.

Cooling: Starter operating to cool the engine.

GlowBad: Defective or disconnected glow plug, or a short of glow system wiring.

StartBad: Defective starter, insufficient RPM reached during start.

Low RPM: Engine speed below the minimum.

HighTemp: Excessive temperature

FlameOut: Exhaust GAS Temperature below the minimum.
