Product Overview
2-2 FlightDEK-D180 Pilot’s User Guide
SENSORS AND INPUTS
Attitude information is obtained from 3 solid-state gyrometers, 3 solid-state accelerometers, and the airspeed pressure
sensor. Heading information is obtained from 3 solid-state magnetometers housed in the EDC-D10A. Airspeed, altitude
and angle of attack are obtained from three separate pressure transducers.
HSI information can be displayed when connected to Dynon’s HS34, a Garmin SL30, or a compatible GPS unit.
When connected to the appropriate sensors, the FlightDEK-D180 displays RPM, manifold pressure, oil temperature and
pressure, exhaust gas temperature (EGT), cylinder head temperature (CHT), fuel levels for up to 4 tanks, voltage,
current, fuel pressure, fuel flow, carburetor air temperature, coolant pressure and temperature, outside air temperature,
flaps, trim, and the status of up to two external contacts. Fuel endurance and economy information can be obtained when
a compatible GPS unit is connected to your system.
DYNON SMART AVIONICS BUS
If you have multiple Dynon Avionics products in your aircraft, they may be networked together via the Dynon Smart
Avionics Bus (DSAB). Units networked via DSAB have the ability to transmit information to each other. Any product’s
data can then be viewed on any other screen in the DSAB network. For example, an EFIS has the ability to display
engine monitor information if it is connected to an EMS or FlightDEK-D180.
Note that the failure of a unit in a DSAB network may cause the loss of some or all data shared between units. In the
above example, if the connected EMS/FlightDEK-D180 were to fail, the EFIS would no longer be able to behave as an
engine monitor. For more information on DSAB-specific alerts, refer to the DSAB Alerts section on page 8-4.
OUTPUTS
The FlightDEK-D180 has outputs to drive external customer-supplied audible and visual devices for engine, AOA (if
installed) and altitude alerts.
