Flytec
5030 GPS
Please change back again to a sink flight. If on your display there is a user field named Dist
to ^ you see now, like during a true flight, how your distance to the last thermal increases,
while in the compass rose the symbol
×
appears and shows you the direction where the last
thermal has been.
You can also retrace a route flown. If you select the route as the Comp.-route, you will hear
the characteristic tone upon approaching within 400 metres of the waypoint, which tells you,
that you are inside the cylinder. You see the automatic switchover to the next WP too. If a
starttime was set, take care that the count down timer shows positive values. By pressing
the ESC key you can switch to map display and observe the approach to the waypoint
cylinder. The second transparent pointer in the centre of the compass rose helps to minimize
the flight path; no need to cross the circumference of the cylinder right angled.
Unfortunately, wind direction cannot be set; only a difference between Ground- and airspeed
simulates head or tailwind influence. Press F1 until the function: wind
▲▼ trk ►◄appears
It is very informative to see how different head- or tailwinds influence the arrival altitude Alt
a. WP above your goal.
The GPS receiver is turned off during the simulation, and in place of its bar the word
“Simulation” appears.
A simulated flight is stored into the memory of the Flytec 5030 GPS, but the Digital Signature
is not valid.
3.8 Factory Settings, Unit Specific Parameters
Beyond this set up level, which is not accessible to the pilot, all basic factory settings are
stored. In particular, both the sensor specific parameters the serial number and all the
calibration data are located here. This data is not lost even when the power supply is cut off.
3.9 Optional Software Packages
With the help of a password code obtainable from the manufacturer, additional special
functions can be activated. For example, restricted areas CTRs are displayed and CTRs
itself will be graphically drawn in the map mode.
To Enter a release code

3.10 NMEA data output
The permanent output (1 per sec) of NMEA data via the serial port is now activated, which is
sending three NMEA sentences to an attached receiver. (9600 baud; 8 bit; no Par ;1
Stopbit;)
1) $GPRMC to be used with navigational programs
2) $VMVABD Output of flight specific data
3) $BRSF special output like McCready results and Speed to fly and more
only this last sentence must be released by a password code.
