Default Cambridge S-nav Help

Jan,

I'm almost sure the S-Nav doesn't have the possibility of wiring a gear
warning to it. This is the small difference to the L-nav.

In my club we have 4 (out of 5) gliders equipped with L-navs/S-nav.
Although the wheel warning of the L-Nav is a nice feature we have removed
it in all our ships (to my regret) and replaced it by a simple buzzer,
because the L-Nav has one big drawback in the warning system: When turning
down the volume - f.i. in the circuit - the wheel warning sound is turned
down as well.

With the Cambridge 302 the warning sound is NOT dependent on the audio
volume of the vario and in our private glider we have installed the 302
gear warning system, which works perfect!

Hi Jan,

I believe you can and it is probably explained in the manual, which is
available he

Or you could go with the recorded voice option ("Put the gear down you
idiot!, Put the gear down you idiot!, Put the gear down you idiot!....")

Hi All,


I've currently got a s-nav installed in my pegasus.

The problem is can you wire up a undercarrage alarm like what you can

do
the the L-nav??

I fly on tarmac runways so the idea of landing with the wheel up

doesn't
sound like FUN


I think its version 7.9 on the software


regards

Jan
