MAX AIRSPD
(Setting Range 0-399) This setting is the maximum airspeed in knots that the
autopilot will fly the aircraft. Example: If the aircraft is in a decent and the power
is not reduced so as to keep the airspeed below the MAX AIRSPD setting, the
autopilot will raise the nose until MAX AIRSPD setting is met.
NORM CLIMB
(Setting Range 0-399) This setting is the airspeed, in knots, that the autopilot will
start a climb when a preselected altitude is selected. This setting is only in the
Sorcerer autopilot.
AUDIO LEVEL
(Setting Range 0-16) This setting controls the volume of the Speech output. This
setting is only in the Sorcerer, RV 10, and AP100 autopilots.
HALF-STEP?
(Setting Range N or Y) This setting will cause the servo to take smaller steps, but
will also reduce the torque available. Normally this setting is “N”, if the aircraft
nose moves up and down very slightly in VERY calm air, and it can be verified that
the servo is only moving one step for each “bobble” of the nose, then select “Y”.
Only very light aircraft that are extremely pitch sensitive will need to adjust this
setting.
EXT DG/HSI?
(Setting Range N or Y) This setting indicates if the aircraft has an input from an
HSI heading bug. TruTrak autopilots input rage is 0 to 5 volts.
YAW DAMPER?
(Setting Range N or Y) This setting indicates if the aircraft has a Yaw Damper
system installed.
YAW LEVELING
(Setting Range-8 -8) This setting is used to have the Yaw Damper keep the aircraft
slip/skid indicator centered when the Yaw system is engaged. Allow a few seconds
for the Yaw System to respond to the new setting.
YAW ACTIVITY (Setting Range0-12) The velocity at which the servo moves the control surface. The higher the
number the more movement you will see in the control surface.
