This instrument presents altitude, climb rate and reference pressure.
The casing is made of anodised aluminium. The LCD display is protected by high quality acrylic cover with anti-glare coating. This makes the device durable and easy to maintain.
The readings are displayed in both digital and graphical form. For immediate recognition of the status, colour codes are used. If the parameters stay within the desired range, the instrument displays values in green. If the warning thresholds are crossed, the instrument informs the pilot by changing the colour of graphs and digits to orange. If alarm levels are reached, the digits and graph bars turn red. The threshold values (both upper and lower) are to be defined by the buyer at placing an order.
The reference pressure is to be adjusted by the pilot by means of the knob located in the front of the casing. The last reference pressure settings are remembered and used next time the system is engaged. The altitude is manually adjustable to correct for the measurement error.
