Operating Instruction Flytec 6005/6010 Operating Philosophy Flytec’s philosophy is to produce user-friendly instruments. When you turn on the instrument the instrument will go through a self test and proceed to the Run-Mode. A quick press of each key in the Run-Mode lets you access the main functions of the instrument.
Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010 Run-Mode During normal use the instrument is in Run-Mode. In this mode the instrument shows analog and digital sink/climb rate, airspeed (if the optional sensor is plugged in), temperature, altitude, altitude difference, time, battery condition and the activated acoustic signals.
3 to 1. You will hear a beep and see appear on the display when the process is complete. The 6005/10 will automatically power down if no flight activities are detected within 60 minutes of power on. This time period can be altered on the 6010 with FlyChart.
40 meters. Altimeter Displays The 6005/6010 is equipped with three independent Altimeters: ALT1 Absolute altimeter ALT2 Absolute or Relative altimeter ALT3 Differential altimeter...
QNH available from weather reporting stations or flight service. Important: ALT1 set is only available if The 6005/10 has not recognized the beginning of a flight (flight acceptance). ALT1 can only be adjusted to current absolute height, and cannot be adjusted more or less than 3,000 feet of the current displayed height.
Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010 Option-Mode ALT1 Press 3 sec. From Set-Mode, press the Altitude Key for three ALT1 seconds to bring the instrument into Option-Mode. After making each change, use a quick press on this key to confirm and go to the next option, or wait three seconds to keep your changes and return to Run-Mode.
Operating Instruction Flytec 6005/6010 Altimeter 2 (ALT2) Absolute / Relative Altimeter 2 can be used as an absolute or as a relative altimeter. When used as an absolute altimeter, ALT2 is coupled with ALT1 and it functions in precisely the same way as altimeter ALT1.
Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010 Press 3 sec. Option-Mode ALT2 From Set-Mode, again press the Altitude Key for three ALT2 seconds to bring the instrument into Option-Mode. ALT2 Option 1: [Set altitude units] Unit Use the Arrow Keys to set the units of altitude to feet or meters.
For the soaring pilot the variometer is the most important element of the instrument, since it tells the pilot if he is climbing or descending. The 6005/10 will tell you, both acoustically and visually, if you are climbing, how fast you are climbing, as well as the rate of change in your ascent.
Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010 Acoustic Vario The 6005/6010 will beep when you are climbing at a rate greater than a predetermined threshold. As your climb rate increases, as shown in the analog vario display, the frequency and pitch of the beep increase linearly.
Operating Instruction Flytec 6005/6010 Option-Mode Vario Press 3 sec. Press the Vario Key for three seconds while in Set-Mode to bring the instrument into Option-Mode. Option 1: [Set units] Unit Use the Arrow Keys to set the units for the digital vario display here.
Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010 Sink Alarm, Speed and Temperature The 6005/10 has a sink alarm that will alert the pilot if he/she is descending faster than a predetermined threshold; an airspeed display with a stall alarm that will alert the pilot if their airspeed falls below a predetermined threshold and a temperature display.
Option-Mode for the Sink Alarm Key (option 6). Stall Alarm Provided that a sensor is plugged in, the 6005/10 has a stall alarm that will sound if your airspeed falls below a preset threshold. The threshold can be set in the Option-Mode for the Sink Alarm key.
