Wifi Connection
FlySense AoA PRO creates a wifi network that is used to connect a smart mobile device. The
SSID of FlySense AoA PRO wifi network is “FLYSENSE XXXXXXXXX” where X is a unique
alphanumeric string. Up to ten (10) smart mobile devices can be simultaneously connected via wifi to
an FlySense AoA PRO.
1.4 Compass Calibration
Before start using your FlySense AoA PRO, the device’s compass should be calibrated. This
only needs to be done once. For that, the FlySense AoA PRO has to be powered up and the
EFIS TA app must be running on a connected (see above) smart mobile device. Please note that
compass calibration must be performed with the aircraft in a parking position on the ground, and
never during a flight. Moreover, this calibration procedure must be performed with the FlySense
AoA PRO as close as possible to the final installation position in order to compensate for
parasitic magnetic fields. The exact steps for compass calibration are outlined below:
•
Power up your device
•
Connect your smart mobile device (iOS or Android) to the FlySense AoA PRO wifi
Network (no password needed).
•
Start the EFIS TA app on the smart mobile device.
•
Tap on “MENU” button and then “Compass Calib”.
•
A notification window will pop up, informing you that the calibration procedure is about
to start. Press “Start” to continue.
•
EFIS TA a p p will return back to the main screen and the calibration window,
indicating the calibration progress will appear (Fig. 4 ) . Start rotating your device slowly,
until the indication on the screen becomes “Good” or “Strong”. To easily achieve the
desired calibration result, start by rotating your device three times around each axis and
then perform a sequence of “lazy eight” maneuvers (Fig. 5).
•
Press “Close” or wait a few seconds until the calibration window closes automatically.
