1 Aeolus_Sense PRO

The Aeolus_Sense PRO is  a portable device that requires connections to a GPS and an ADS-B
antenna   (both   antennae   are   included).   The   instrument   has   a   USB   socket   for   cable/tether
connection to a smart device (tablet or smartphone). Aeolus_Sense PRO includes a dual-band (978
MHz and 1090 MHz) ADS-B receiver for traffic and weather information. 

1.1 Mounting the Aeolus_Sense PRO

The Aeolus_Sense PRO should  be  mounted  in  a  convenient  dry  place,  as  far  away  as  possible
from  heat and magnetic sources. A suitable mounting location is the top of the instrument panel.
You can mount the unit by means of double-sided adhesive tape or Velcro. Please ensure that the
unit is stable during flight. 

The instrument must be connected to the airplane native pitot/static tubes using two 1/8in. BSP to
the airplane hoses adaptors.

Both antennae (GPS & ADSB) should be connected at the back of the device and mounted with
double sided adhesive tape or Velcro, in a free-to-view-sky location for optimal signal reception.

It is  important  for  the Aeolus_Sense PRO  to be mounted  parallel and  as close  as possible to
the  symmetry axes of the airplane .  The front side of the Aeolus_Sense PRO is marked by a
small airplane on the cover of the unit. After mounting the Aeolus_Sense PRO, the  “AHRS
leveling”  procedure  described  in  Section 1.5 of the current manual should be performed,  in
order to adjust  for small inaccuracies during placement.
