HITEC Telemetry System - Manual (Page 4)

If power to the aircraft is lost or interrupted prior to the flight, the fuel meter will not operate accurately. De-fuel
and start the fueling process over.
Note
Current version fuel sensor can detect Nitro fuel only.
Note
Up right position is recommended
as picture shown. Note
6. Fuel Level Sensor
Fuel Level Sensor (HTS-FUEL) - provides an accurate 5-step reading of your remaining fuel level when simply attached to the
outside of the fuel tank.
Installation
1. Three different sensing film are included
for small, medium and large tanks. Select
the appropriate film for your tank.
2. Confirm the sensor orientation is correct
with the sensors four “bars” being “stacked”
from top to bottom of the tank and install
the sensor into the circuit board by gently
lifting the ivory colored tab on each side of
the port, inserting either sensor tab, “circuit
side” “up” or towards you. Which sensor tab
you use is dependent on the circuit board
placement, either one will work.

7. GPS Sensor
Special use instructions:
A. The fuel tank MUST be empty at the start of this process for the sensor to accurately read the fuel quantity.
B. Turn on transmitter and select transmit
C. Power-up the aircraft
Aurora transmitter interface
The single display of the fuel level sensor is shown as graphic bars on the “fuel dispenser” icon in the Cockpit display found
in the System / Sensor / Cockpit menu.
Aurora transmitter interface
a. Access the System menu and select Sensor
b. Press RPM to enter the RPM sensor menu
c. Press the RPM-1 icon and then RENAME to
give the RPM-1 value a custom name.
Repeat to change the RPM-2 name.
d. When using an optic sensor, you must
select the number of prop or heli blades.
Select, O / Prop-2 (arrow) to scroll through
the choices. When using the magnetic
sensor, select the “Prop-M” choice.

3. Gently press the ivory locking tabs into place securing the sensor in the circuit board.
4. Use the double sided tape to attach the circuit board to the tank or other structure.
5. Use the re-applied sticky tape on the film to attach the sensor to the tank.
(Example of M-RPM sensor installed on Heli.)
GPS Sensor (HTS-GPS) – feeds variable directional information such as: altitude, position and airspeed to the Aurora
transmitter. This information is displayed in real time on the Auroras Cockpit screen.
Installation
Install the GPS sensor using the supplied double side tape on any appropriate surface of the airframe.
