6. “T. to E. / MPG” (Time to Empty / Miles per Gallon) Display Mode:
"Time to Empty" is calculated by dividing "Fuel Remaining" by "Fuel Flow". The value is displayed in
hours and minutes up to 19 hours and 59 minutes. By tapping either "PRG" button, the FP-5L can be toggle
between "Time to Empty", "Nautical Miles per Gallon" (shown with a "n" in the left of the display) and "Statute
Miles per Gallon."
If the programmable Low "T. to E." Limit has been violated (as shown in the left display below), a bar in the
upper left corner of the display will be shown when displaying Time to Empty. See the "Pilot Programmable
Settings" section of this manual to set the Time to Empty Limit.

If the FP-5L is not receiving data from a GPS, the display will show " ." If a signal is present but the
baud rate is wrong, the display will show " " (note the tick mark in the upper left corner of the display).
If the baud rate is correct but the ground speed and distance to waypoint is not available, the display will show "
." To set up the FP-5(L) to receive GPS data, see the "Power-Up Programmable Settings" sections of
this manual.
7. “AUX” (Auxiliary Channel) Display Mode:
The "AUX" channel may be used to monitor EGT, TIT, CHT, OAT, Carb. Temp, Oil Temp, Cowl Temp,
Fuel Pressure, Gyro Vacuum, Manifold Pressure, Bus Volts, Amps or any function for which a module is avail-
able. If the "AUX" channel is used to monitor an EGT, the FP-5(L) will compensate the displayed horsepower as
you lean your engine. As you lean your engine you should see an approximate 3% increase in horsepower at max
power. Max power occurs at 100
° F to 150 ° F on the rich side and below peak EGT.
Warning:
You should never lean your engine with power settings over the factory recommended level
(generally 65% to 75% power).
