2 EMSIS Basics
This chapter describes the organization of the EMSIS instrument. It teaches you about the individual
buttons and their meaning. After reading it, you will be familiar with basic EMSIS operations.
2.1 Command Panel
EMSIS instruments come in two physical sizes. The first one is a standard aviation size, which is 80 mm
diagonal, while the second one is non-standard and is characterized with a 3.5" screen diameter.
The EMSIS command panel is organized according to Figure 1. It uses six (80 mm version) or five
(3.5" screen version) small push buttons to manipulate the user interface. Additionally, it has SD card slot
for software, maps and data updates.
