RPT

PURPOSE
To activate the RPT DISPLAY.
See Section 3.3.6,
The RPT DISPLAY is the default DISPLAY in differential measurement mode
(<Hd>) (see Section 3.2.6).
OPERATION
For the sake of clarity, when describing the RPT DISPLAY, the Q-RPT
displayed on the top line of the display when the RPT function is selected is
referred to as the "active" Q-RPT. The other Q-RPT to be displayed on the
second (bottom) line of the RPM4-AD display is referred to as the "inactive"
Q-RPT. It is "inactive" in the sense that all RPM4-AD functions and settings
such as UNIT and RES still apply to the "active" Q-RPT. In differential
pressure measurement mode (<Hd>), the Lo Q-RPT is always the "inactive"
Q-RPT. In parallel measurement (<HL>), the Hi or the Lo Q-RPT may be the
"inactive" Q-RPT.
To activate the RPT DISPLAY, press [DISPLAY], <4RPT>.
If the active measurement unit is NOT an airspeed unit, operation returns to the
MAIN RUN screen with the inactive Q-RPT displayed on the display's bottom line
and the settings (unit of measure, resolution) of the inactive Q-RPT are the same
as for the active Q-RPT.
If the active measurement unit IS an airspeed unit, the display on the bottom line
is altitude so that airspeed and altitude can be viewed simultaneously. When
<4RPT> is selected, the altitude unit must be specified. The display is:
Select the desired unit for the second line
display of altitude.
After the altitude unit selection, operation returns to the main run screen with the
RPT display active.
When RPM4-AD A160K/A160K is in parallel (<HL>) mode in which both Q-RPTs
measure the same pressure in parallel, if the active unit is airspeed the bottom
line display of altitude is obtained using the last measurement of atmospheric
pressure made by the Lo Q-RPT corrected by the change in atmospheric
pressure since the last measurement as measured by the on-board barometer.
If the active unit is NOT airspeed, the Q-RPT to display on the lower display line
(<Hi> or <Lo>) must be specified.
