Congratulations on purchasing a Aeolus-Sense

avionic instrument

Aeolus-Sense is a r

ich flight

information s stem, as detailed below. Proper installation and maintenance of the device facilitates

accurate performance and uninterrupted operation.

Please read the current manual prior to using

Aeolus-Sense

and keep it for future reference.

Correct operation of the

Aeolus-Sense

requires that one or more smart device, phone or tablet (iOS

or Android) are connected to the device. We propose to use a tablet instead of a phone as the tablet

screens are larger and and therefore easier to view.

Α TTENTION

We perform updates to the EFIS TA application and the firmware of our units when necessar to

ensure the best performance of our devices. This procedure is automatic. When ou connect our

smart device to the internet, an update of the EFIS TA application is automaticall downloaded.

This of course depends on smart device/user settings, so if ou are asked to give our permission,

please do so.

After downloading the EFIS TA application update, the first time ou connect our smart device to

our instrument, ou might be asked to update the Aeolus-Sense

instrument firmware (if there is a

latest firmware update for it), please press confirm.

ATTENTION, during this process, don’t power off the device for at least 3mins. Then reconnect it

to the tablet for normal operation. Please ensure that there is power available for the time required

to complete the firmware update operation.

If the device is turned off intentionally or because of a poor power supply during this

operation, the device could stop working and the only way to recover it is by sending back

to the factory for complete reprogramming.

1 Aeolus-Sense

The Aeolus-Sense instrument is a portable device that requires connections to a GPS antenna

(included) The instrument has a USB socket for cable/tether connection to a smart device (tablet

or smartphone).

1.1 Mounting the Aeolus-Sense

The Aeolus-Sense (Fig. 1) should be mounted in a convenient dr place, as far awa as possible

from

heat and magnetic sources. A suitable mounting location is the top of the instrument panel.

You can mount the unit b 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.

The GPS antenna should be connected at the back of the device and mounted with double sided

adhesive tape or Velcro, in a free-to-view-sk location for optimal signal reception.

Fig. 1. Aeolus-Sense Instrument.

It is important for the Aeolus-Sense to be mounted parallel and as close as possible to the

s mmetr axes of the airplane (see Fig. 2). The front side of the Aeolus-Sense is marked b a

small airplane on the cover of the unit. After mounting the Aeolus-Sense, 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.

alwa s make sure to connect with

the proper polarit :



The red/white cable connects to the positive (+ 12V to +30V)



The black cable connects to the negative (0V)

1.3 Software – EFIS TA app

Aeolus-Sense operates with the free EFIS TA app offered b TalosAvionics. EFIS TA app has

been tested to compl with ASTM F3153 – 15 Standard Specification for Verification of

Avionics S stems. EFIS TA app runs on smart devices (tablets or smartphones) with iOS or

Android operating s stems.

EFIS TA app for Android can be downloaded from

Google Pla Market.

EFIS TA app for iOS can be downloaded from

Apple’s App Store.

EFIS TA software instructions can be downloaded from

https://www.talosavionics.com/support/

PLEASE

READ

THE

EFIS TA APP

SOFT W ARE

INST R UCTIONS!

EFIS TA app ma operate in standalone mode, when the smart mobile device is not

connected to a Aeolus-Sense, or --

preferably

-- in connected mode, when the smart device is

connected to a Aeolus-Sense.

When EFIS TA app runs on a smart device in standalone mode, it displa s a relevant

message informing the pilot about operation in standalone mode and runs b emplo ing the

internal sensors of the smart mobile device (assuming that the latter is equipped with the

necessar sensors). When the smart mobile device is connected to a Aeolus-Sense via a cable-

adaptor or via wifi, the EFIS TA app automaticall recognizes Aeolus-Sense, and the above

message disappears. If, for an reason, connection to the Aeolus-Sense is lost (e.g. Aeolus-Sense

is turned off due to: power failure & batter -switch in off position), EFIS TA app switches

automaticall to standalone mode and the message reappears, warning the pilot.

From the main screen of the EFIS TA app interface, ou can tap on “MENU” button and

navigate to “sensor status window” and check the status of the sensors, as depicted in Fig. 3

below.

(a) (b)

Figure 3 : Sensor status window. (a) EFIS TA app working with internal sensors onl , (b)

EFIS TA app connected to an Aeolus-Sense.

To test the connection, start the EFIS TA application and tap on “MENU” button, then “Sensor

Status”. A screen as in Fig. 3b appears, verif ing the connection to Aeolus-Sense. If instead a

screen as in Fig. 3a comes up, it indicates that no connection to the instrument has been established.

Connection of the smart device to a Aeolus-Sense can be achieved b two means: (a) wired

connection via a USB cable, (b) wireless connection via wifi.

USB Cable Connection

The Aeolus-Sense instrument connects to the smart device through a USB connector situated at

the front panel of the Aeolus-Sense. USB cable connection confirms secure communication under

an conditions and also facilitates charging of the smart device.

When eolus-Sense is in USB cable/tethered connection with a smart device, the WiFi of

that smart device must be turned off. However there is the option to connect other smart

devices to the eolus-Sense WiFi network, and provide the cockpit with multiple displays

of the same instrument.

When connection of Aeolus-Sense to the smart device has been established b USB cable, ou

will be asked to confirm the connection. On Android this appears as “Allow USB debugging”,

and on iOS as “Trust” the connection. The user needs to confirm the connection.

ndroid Device Note:

On Android devices the user needs to enable “Developer Options” and

then “USB Debugging”. On most Android devices the Developer options menu is hidden b

default. In addition, different android device manufacturers allow users to enable “Developer

Options” in their own wa , there is no standard procedure as of et. Also, the list of developer

options will depend on the version of Android that the device is using.

As an example on Samsung devices the procedure will be:

Settings->About phone(or about

device).

Then, depending on the device and operating s stem, ou ma need to tap "Software information",

then tap "Build number" seven times repeatedly.

The "Developer options" menu will now appear

in the Settings menu. Again, depending on the device, it ma appear under Settings->General->

Developer options ( ou need to go back to the Settings screen and scroll down to the end).

When "Developer options" menu is enabled, the user goes inside, finds the option “USB

Debugging” and enables it. Now ou have access to our device USB.

As an unwritten rule, since we can't know the menu of ever android device, the above procedure

might be a bit different on our device. For example, in Xiaomi Redmi there is no option “Build

Number”, instead ou tap “MIUI version” several times to enable the "Developer options". So if

ou can't find-out how to enable "Developer options"on our device, run a Google search: How

do I turn on the Developer Options menu on <put our device name here>, or drop us an email

and we'll perform the search for ou.

Wifi Connection

Aeolus-Sense

i ns tr um en t creates a wifi

network that is used to connect to a smart device. The

SSID of

the

wifi

network is “AEOLUS XXXXXXXXX” where X is a unique alphanumerical

string. Up to ten (10) smart devices can be simultaneousl connected via wifi to a

Aeolus-Sense

i n s t r u m e n t .

1. Compass Calibration

Before start using our Aeolus-Sense, the device compass should be calibrated.

This onl needs

to be done once. 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 Aeolus-Sense 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 our Aeolus-Sense instrument



Connect a smart device (iOS or Android) to the Aeolus-Sense wifi Network (no

password needed).



Start the EFIS TA application on the smart device.



Tap on “MENU” button and then “Compass Calib”.



A notification window will pop up, informing ou that the calibration procedure is about

to start. Press “Start” to continue.



The application returns back to the main screen with a superimposed calibration window,

indicating the

calibration progress (Fig. 4 ) . Start rotating our device slowl , until the

indication on the screen becomes “Good” or “Strong”. To easil achieve the desired

calibration results, start b rotating our device three times around each axis and then

perform a sequence of “laz eight” maneuvers (Fig. 5).



Press “Close” or wait a few seconds until the calibration window closes automaticall .

(a) (b) (c)

Figure 4: (a) Press “Start” to start compass calibration. (b) Calibration in progress. The

calibration results are indicated as “Weak”; ou should continue rotating our device until ou

have

a “Good” or “Strong” indication. (c) “Strong” calibration signifies that the device

compass has been properl calibrated.

Fig. 5: To easil calibrate the Compass start b slowl rotating Aeolus-Sense three times around

each axis and then perform a sequence of “laz eight” maneuvers until ou have a

“Good”

or a “Strong” indication on the EFIS TA app.

1.5 AHRS Leveling

Aeolus-Sense should ideall be mounted parallel to the s mmetrical axes of the airplane. Since

this action can't alwa s be performed with certaint , AHRS leveling makes adjustments for minor

inaccuracies during placement.

The “AHRS leveling” procedure described below needs onl to be done once, after ou have

mounted and full connected Aeolus-Sense. Please note that AHRS leveling must be performed

with the aircraft in a parking position on the ground, and never during flight.



Power up our device.



Connect our smart device (iOS or Android) to the Aeolus-Sense wifi Network.



Start the EFIS TA application on our mobile device.



Tap on “MENU” button and then “Level AHRS”.



EFIS TA app will return back to the main screen and the “AHRS leveling” window (Fig.

6) will

appear.



Press the “Auto” button for automatic AHRS leveling, and/or use the arrows to manuall

adjust the AHRS. Manual adjustment ma be unavoidable if, for example, ou are

installing

Aeolus-Sense in an aircraft with a tailwheel-t pe landing gear (a taildragger).



When ou are satisfied with leveling the AHRS, press “Close” to save the changes and

return to

the main screen.

Fig. 6 : AHRS leveling. Press “Auto” for automatic leveling, and/or use the arrows to

manuall adjust the AHRS and the compass.

1.6 Electronic Emissions and Flame Resistance Compliance

Aeolus-Sense complies full with applicable Electronic Emissions and Flame Resistance

standards. More specificall :



Electronic Emissions: The Aeolus-Sense deplo s a WiFi network with

transmitter power

9mW EIRP. Accordingl

, it complies full with the 10mW limit imposed b PS-ANM-25-13

and part 15 of FCC rules.



Flame Resistance: Materials, design and construction of the Aeolus-Sense are flame resistant

and in compliance with CAR regulation 3.

2 Aeolus-Sense Maintenance

Aeolus-Sense has been designed and manufactured for long and maintenance-free operation.

Still, some care must be applied with regards to the following:



Aeolus-Sense Compass: An replacement and/or relocation of metallic items in the

cockpit ma require re-calibration of the Compass. Please follow the steps outlined in section 1.4

of the current document for Compass calibration.

3 Limitations and Abnormal Operation

Temperature and voltage operational range:

Temperature range: -20C to 65C or -4F to 149F

Voltage: 10-32Vdc

Current: max 4A during smart device charging. Please use a 10A fuse.

Inflight power reset: in case of inflight power reset or if ou turn on the unit during the flight after

losing our main s stems, please note that there is no limitation or constraint of attitude for correct

operation of the

Aeolus-Sense

. This means that the

Aeolus-Sense

will recover in an flight attitude,

such as sharp turns, strong turbulence, etc. No constraint is imposed of straight and level flight for

recover , which sometimes, in IMC is impossible to know. In this case, if ou don’t have a visual

reference, please wait for about 40 to 60 secs for full recover of the Artificial Horizon.

Loss of GPS or Pitot/static: our s stem uses both GPS and pitot/static for correct attitude

indication. In case of a loss of one of those subs stems, correct instrument operation depends on the

live one. If ou lose both, then operation is based on less “attitude” accurate information provided

b other inertial sensors and, depending on the flight conditions, there will be a slight drift after 15

to 30 mins.
