built in charts for specific helicopter models. Balance adjustment
solutions are computed internally by the software. These are
called "standard" chart solutions. Though automated, they vary
slightly from the "smart" solutions provided by the 8500C and
VXP balancers. "Standard" solutions are based upon one
measurement, whereas "Smart" solutions may be based upon
multiple measurements and flight regimes.
There are over 28 factory helicopter models and variants to
choose from along with all their corresponding components
(main rotor, tail rotor, drive shafts, oil cooler fans, etc.). This list
is too extensive to be managed by a fleet user who normally
maintains only about one to three helicopter models. The
Enhanced Vibrex 2000 Plus allows the user to select only the
models that he/she is actively maintaining. Ten user models can
be selected at once. It also allows for individual charts to be
tuned for a particular ancillary equipment configuration or tail
number.
Helicopter Balance is a main menu function as shown in
paragraph 5.2.2 "Main Menu Screen".
Since at least one user model must be selected for Helicopter
Balance to function, initial startup menus vary slightly from
normal use.

been cleared, the Helicopter Balance main menu will
