1.8.1.5 Flight Memory and Data analysis
Flights are recorded in a Flash-Memory (see hereunder). Each Trackpoint contains time of day, position,
GPS-altitude, barometric altitude as well as flight speed. In this way, it is possible to graph the Barogram,
variogram, speed gram and course of the flight over a map for later evaluation.
These data are processed for flight analysis by various evaluation programs. In Flychart 4.52 it is possible
to show the flight on the PC monitor in 3D mode on the corresponding landscape. (Google Earth)
The Bräuniger COMPEO+ is provided with totalling 3 different memory zones.

1.8.2 Entering Text
It is possible to enter on certain fields, as for example pilot’s name, type of aircraft, aircraft ID,
or in regard to Waypoints and Routes, the desired text directly on the instrument.
Text entry on the instrument is demonstrated here for the example of a Waypoint:
By use of the ▲ and ▼ arrow keys a WP is selected and after pressing the OK key it is altered with the
arrow keys. The 1st letter of the WP name shall be flashing, again by using the ▲and ▼ arrow keys the
required letter is selected; numbers, letters as well as a range of special characters are available. By
pressing the ► key the cursor moves to the next letter position etc In this mode the F1 key is used to
switch between capitals and minuscules. The F2 key is used to rub out one character. It is possible to
enter max. 17 characters. When the name has been entered completely, it is to be confirmed by
pressing OK.
It is much more easier to carry out the text entry by use of the PC using the program Flychart 4.52,
and to transfer it to the instrument.
