Trim Calibration
Enter the EMS menu by pressing any button below an EMS main page and pressing MORE > SETUP > MORE > TRIM. The TRIM CALIBRATION menu shows AILERON, ELEVATOR, and RUDDER, followed by the GP input that each is configured as (or NONE, if no GP input is configured for a given axis). Ensure that this list corresponds to the physical connections made during the setup described in the Trim and Flaps Position Potentiometers section on page 3-16.
During the calibration process, the onscreen instructions will direct you to put the trim into various positions, pressing NEXT after each change. The calibration process allows you to set a takeoff trim position; this position is displayed as a green line on the trim scale info item. During the calibration process, ensure that the number shown in the VALUE field changes as you adjust the trim. If the number does not change, the trim sensor may be incorrectly wired to the FlightDEK-D180, or incorrectly configured in the GP input selection under the SENSOR menu. At any point in the process, you may press CANCEL to end the calibration without overwriting the previous calibration results. Once you are ready to calibrate, select the desired trim that you would like to calibrate, and press SEL► to enter its calibration menu. Press the RANGE button to begin calibrating the range of the trim. Follow the onscreen instructions, controlling trim to the required position before pressing NEXT. Repeat the process for the opposite position. The process will then prompt you to put the trim into takeoff position. If you do not require a takeoff indication on the given axis? trim display, you may press NONE. When you have completed the calibration, press the DONE button.
Press the TAKOFF button to calibrate the takeoff position indicator. When calibrated, a green line is displayed on the trim scales, indicating takeoff position. View the trim display on the EMS Main or Aux page (depending on where you configured it to display) to make sure that it works as expected. You may repeat this calibration process as many times as you wish.
