Nesis III — Installation Manual
14. Tank
Nose
holds the value of the pitch trim sensor when trim is at the full forward
– nose down position. The value can be entered manually.
Tail
holds the value of the pitch trim sensor when trim is the full backward
position – tail down position. The value can be entered manually.
Sensor
is the raw pitch sensor value currently detected. If sensor is measuring
the voltage, then voltage is shown, if sensor is measuring resistance,
resistance is shown. Selecting the sensor item allows copying current
sensor value either into
Nose
or
Tail
fields.
In typical scenario, aircraft is trimmed full forward and once sensor value is
stable, sensor value is copied to
Nose
. Then it is trimmed fully backward and
once sensor value is stable it is copied to the
Tail
.
13.3.3
Offset
For certain sensors, offset can be adjusted. This is used in cases, when the
correct sensor value is known, but the actual value shown by the sensor is
slightly incorrect.
Example on Figure 63 shows a MAP sensor. The know (reference) pressure
value is 0.96 bar and the
Offset
value was adjusted to 0.04 bar until the MAP
sensor also shows 0.96 bar.

An example of manifold pressure offset.
13.3.4
Tank
The tank action is shown only with the fuel level sensors. Details are given
in next section.
14
Tank
Nesis supports two modes for the fuel level indication. The first mode is based
on fuel level sensors and the second one is a software simulated tank.
