The Miscellaneous Sensor section of the System
function displays
Fuel/Air Data Sensor (F/ADS), fuel sensor, and
altitude encoder when they are installed. The F/ADS
includes a fuel sensor and altitude encoder. The
F/ADS monitors fuel flow, air speed, outside air
temperature/pressure, and magnetic heading. The
F/ADS data is used to compute true air speed,
pressure altitude, density altitude, heading, wind
direction/velocity, rate of climb, and fuel usage. Turn
the knob to choose the sensor. Turn the
LARGE
knob to view additional available information.
