Introduction

First of all, we would like to thank you for purchasing our device. Indu

Altimeter is an electronic device, which mimics classical altimeter construction

and combines it with the state of the art electronics. This results in the best

of both worlds; a perfect and intuitive analogue reading combined with high

precision of modern electronics.

This manual describes the technical description of the unit, installation and

operation.

CAUTION: Indu Altimeter is not TSO approved as a flight

1.1

Indu Altimeter is an electromechanical device. It consist of high precision

electronic barometric sensor, which provides static pressure information in

digital form. The electronics reads the sensor and drives two coaxial stepper

motors turning one needle each. The pressure information is also shown on a

colour LCD display. A rotating push knob is used to adjust the barometricoff-

set (aka QNH value) and to adjust LCD display brightness

to a CAN bus Indu Altimeter outputs pressure information. An optional dim

knob can be connected to the device and it is used to adjust the brightness

of the screen.

80 mm's display is divided linearly in 360 scale. The long pointer is working

in 1000 m (feet) per revolution with the 20 m markings (20 feet). The short

pointer is working in 10000 m (feet) per revolution with 200 m markings (200

feet).

57 mm has a single pointer and a scale with 500 m (feet) markings.

Optionally, the 80 mm Indu Altimeter can be equipped with integrated backup

battery.

Older models do not have push knob and a separate external knob is needed to adjust

the brightness.
