7.1 USB Config and SW Prg Manager Screen:
This screen provides a method to update the software and backup and
retrieve configuration data. The data fields operate as follows:
Update The SW Program (3 Steps) - This section allows you
to update the main CGR-30P software program. Your CGR’s
current software version is listed on this screen under “Curr
Revision.” The new software program must be placed in the
“sw” directory on the USB Data Stick and must be the only file
in that directory.
Config Files (Limits, Redlines, etc.) - This section allows you
to backup configuration files to the USB Data Stick, or retrieve
configuration files from the USB Data Stick. The configuration
files contain all of the data necessary to set up the CGR-30P for
your aircraft and engine (engine type, GPS interface, all instru-
ment and bar graph limits, fuel tank cal data, EDC mapping, screen layout, all calibration data for all probes
and transducers, etc.).
The “Retrieve ALL Backup Config Files” command reads all the stored configuration data on the USB Data
Stick. If the configuration data was NOT stored to the USB Data Stick by the same CGR-30P that is
retrieving it, the command will fail. Each CGR-30P system has the following unique calibration data:
A. Temp Comp Diode offset (this diode is located on the middle connector of the EDC).
B. PT-30ABS, Manifold Pressure offset.
C. PT-30Alt, Pressure or Cabin Altitude calibration data.
D. Horsepower calibration data.
E. Fuel Tank calibration data.
F. G-Meter
Certified Unit Field – If this field is set to “Yes” and the EGT’s are set to Primary in the “Engine & Bar
Graph Setup” screen, the EGT Low and High Ranges cannot be set by the user.
Reserved for EI use Field – This field is for E.I. support personel only.
Button Board Trk Num – This field provides Button Board software information for E.I. support
personel.
7.2 Change Passwords Screen:
The CGR-30P provides a number of screens for the pilot to use during flight, none of which require a password. It
also provides many System Configuration Screens that are used to configure the CGR-30P for a specific aircraft.
Some of the aircraft functions (fuel level, engine hours, GPS port setup, etc.) must be calibrated or setup during
installation and some are setup at the factory or by an OEM.
