Pitot Static

When Pitot Static is selected on the dashboard, the resulting screen will clearly display whether the
ADTS is currently controlling the pressures at the Ps and Pt ports (CONTROL) or passively measuring
the pressures at the Ps and Pt ports (MEASURE).
The condition immediately after power up is always MEASURE, so as to protect any connected
systems.
To switch between the two modes, touch the related icon (1) at the bottom of the screen. See also
section ADTS Touch
Measure mode
The MEASURE mode screen displays real time Pitot Static parameter measurements (2) based on the
current pressures and rates of change (3) of pressures present at the Ps and Pt ports of the ADTS or
any connected aircraft systems. All ADTS pumping and pressure control functions are inactive unless
Autoleak protection is enabled.
This baseline Pitot Static information screen will typically be used to passively monitor the pressure
and leak rate status of the connected aircraft.
