Dynon Avionics FlightDEK-D180 Pilots Users Guide - Manual (Page 36)

Available Pages
EMS Fuel Computer Page
Available in 1/3 format
This page displays fuel tank levels, fuel flow, fuel pressure, fuel remaining, fuel used, and time
remaining. If a compatible GPS is connected to your Dynon system as described in the FlightDEK-
D180 Installation Guide, this page also displays current distance per unit fuel, fuel at waypoint, and
distance to empty (range). Analog gauges display sensor information and textual readouts display
computed data. Much of the computed data is reliant on the optional fuel flow sensor, available
from Dynon Avionics.
To obtain accurate data, you must reset the fuel computer every time you add fuel to the aircraft.
Note that “fuel used” resets itself when the unit detects that oil pressure has exceeded 15 PSI for the
first time after being powered on. This allows you to view the fuel used value from your last flight.
Some user input is required for the FlightDEK-D180 Fuel Computer to function properly. Refer to
the EMS Operation section on page 10-2 for instructions on adjusting various Fuel Computer parameters.
WARNING: The Fuel Remaining, Time Remaining, Distance per Fuel Unit, Fuel Remaining at Waypoint, and the
Calculated Range Remaining values are not directly measured. These values are calculated based upon measured flow
rates and user input of fuel quantity. Do not use these values as primary indicators.
