GENERAL SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

The Computerized Fuel Systems, herein referred to as CFS, are designed to maximize
efficiency of fuel system monitoring and management and bring space-age capability and
De tail ed In formation

display technology to general avia�on.

The CFS systems consist of a panel mounted instrument and fuel flow transducers which are
designed for istallla�on in the aircra� fuel lines.

MODEL AIRCRAFT TYPE TRANSDUCERS

CFS-1000A/1001A Single Engine One


CFS-1000A/2001A Twin Engine Two
GAUGES

These systems are designed for use in all single and twin
engine aircra� having nore more than 60 GAL/HR con�nous
consump�on or 78 GAL/HR intermi�ent consump�on ( take off power)
62
Fuel Compute r Manual

1.1 PANEL MOUNTED INSTRUMENT

The panel mounted instrument contains all system electronics, opera�ng and programing
controls, and the digital readout display.

The digital readout u�lizes incandescent, seven-segment displays and the func�on or mode
legends incorporate mini-lamps. All digital readouts and legend displays are fully sunlight
De tail ed In formation

readable and feature automa�c dimming for night and low light level flight condi�ons.

The systems' electronics are completely packaged in the panel mounted instrument on three
rectangular circuit boards. The electronic designs features the highest quality, solid state
components available and a "single-chip' microprocessor.

The system computers are designed to precisely count the number of pulses from the fuel
flow transducer(S) and convert the count to gallons. A crystal controlled clock reference is
used to compute the rate of fuel flow and the "TIMER" func�ons. The computer also
rou�nely calculated all other displayed func�ons.

The basic program is permanently "burned-in" to the microprocessor chip, whi;e variable
data and intermediate computa�on values are stored by the computer in a sparate memory
bank. The aircra�'s total usable fuel is programmed into this separate memory circuit by the
computer in response to the installer's original instruc�ons.
GAUGES

The panel mounted instrument and the flow tranducer(s) are digital devices, therefore,
there is no need for adjustment or calibra�on. The installer programmed "FILLUP" number,
63
Fuel Compute r Manual

usable fuel, is maintained in the computer memory even during aircra� shutdown. Electrical
power for this func�on is provided by three small ba�eries mounted in the rear of the
instrument case.

A low ba�ery warning indicator is located on the front panel and will appear on the
CFS-1000A/2000A as a minus sign in the upper display and on the CFS-1001A/2001A, a low
ba�ery legend will illuminate when the ba�eries become weak or need to be replaced. The
De tail ed In formation

ba�eries will typically last between 1 to 1 1/2 years and annual replacement is
recommended.

1.2 FUEL FLOW TRANSDUCER

The flow transducer(s) are mounted directly in the fuel line, usually in the engine
compartment. The transducer(s) measure flow of hydro-carbon fuel such as gasoline or
kerosene.The transducer(s) are rated for a con�nous opera�on to 60 gallons per hour and
for intermi�ent flows in excess of 60 gallons per hour. In addi�on, the tranducer(s) are
precisely accurate down to 0.6 gallons per hour .

The transducer(s) supply the CFS computer with a pulse signal from a self contained opto-
electronic pickup. A neutrally buoyant rotor spins with the liquid between V-jewel
bearings.The rotor movement is sensed when notches in the rotor interrupt an infra-red
GAUGES

light beam between a light emi�ng diode and a photo-transistor.

The transducer(s) are designed totally fail safe and complete rotor blockage cannot interrupt

64
Fuel Compute r Manual

2.0 OPERATING PROCEDURES

The system opera�ng procedures may be divided into two segments or condi�ons, Preflight
and Inflight.

The Preflight, or program condi�on, is automa�cally called up by the computer when the
aircra�'s master switch is ini�ally turned on. It is during the Preflight condi�on that the pilot
De tail ed In formation

updates or pograms the computer to the current fuel system status.

When sa�sfied with current system status, the pilot verifies the accuracy of the data being
entered into the computer and depresses the enter bu�on. This ac�on updates or programs
the computer and automa�cally switches the system to the Inflight condi�on.

The words Preflight and Inflight condi�on do not appear in legend form on the face of the
instrument. However, the legends of the Preflight condi�on appear on the right of the
instrument and are a red color as a subtle reminder of the Preflight or program condi�on.
The Inflight condi�on legends are located on the le� side of the instrument and are amber in
color.

2.1 FUNCTIONAL CONTROLS


GAUGES

The CFS system are controlled through all modes of opera�on by the use of three push
bu�ons. Two are for the primary modes, and one is for the test mode. The principal

pressing the func�on bu�on, in either the Preflight or the Inflight condi�on.

The push bu�on located in the lower le� por�on of the display instrument is not labeled by
silk screen as are the "FUNCT" and "TEST" push bu�ons. However, this push bu�on is
acompanied by a lighted legend system that automa�callly indicates the correct mode of
opera�on and is controlled by the "FUNCT" push bu�on. The three modes of opera�on are

"ENTER", "SET" and "RESET".

"ENTER" -- Push to enter data into computer.

"SET" -- Set fuel amounts less than total usable.

"RESET" -- Reset bu�on is used to zero or reset gallons used,


pounds used or �mer, allowing measurement of
fuel and �me for specific trips, holding pa�ern legs,
or approaches.

The test push bu�on is located on the lower right of the instrument display. When the test
bu�on is depressed, all legends and digits will illuminate for approximately three seconds,
checking all legend lamps, the digital displays, and approximately 80% of the

microcomputer. When the test bu�on is depressed, all of the digits will illuminate as eights
except the upper right digit which will illuminate as zero (8880). The microprocessor is
programmed to automa�cally turn off the TEST circuit a�er three (3) seconds to assure no

The intensity of the digital displays and the lighted legends are automa�cally controlled to
ease pilot workload and insure reliability in low and high intensity light condi�ons. The push-
bu�on controls have also been designed to ease pilot workload in all condi�ons of cockpit
ligh�ng and air turbulence.

The "Low Fuel" warning legend, located in the center of the instrument display, is designed
to come on when, at current power se�ng, the �me remaining to fly is less than one hour.

When the �me drops below 30 minutes, the legend blinks to further no�fy the pilot of &
Low Fuel Status.

2.2 PREFLIGHT OPERATION

IMPORTANT NOTE : It is absolutely essen�al that the pilot program the computer to equal
the amount of usable fuel in the aircra�'s tanks before each flight. The computer measures
fuel flow, and precisely counts down the remaining usable fuel from the programmed value
provided during the Preflight condi�on. As in all computers, the accuracy of the resultant
informa�on is a direct result of the accuracy of the informa�on that was originally provided
to the computer. Therefore, complete supervision of the fueling procedure is a must.

2.4 INFLIGHT OPERATION

As indicated in the Preflight or programming por�on of this manual, the CFS systems
incorporate three Preflight programming capabili�es. When entering any one of these
possible program situa�ons, the computer automa�cally switches to the Inflight condi�on.
Fuel flow is displayed only a�er the engines have been started.

The fuel flow window(s) on the lower sec�on of the instrument will remain blank un�l a fuel
flow is establishes. If the fuel is below 2.8 gallons per hour, the computer will blink the flow
window to show a low flow situa�on. if at any �me the flow is stopped or interrupted, the
flow window will blank-out a�er approximately ten (10) seconds to indicate a no flow status.

During the automa�c switching from the Preflight to the Inflight mode, the computer calls
up the
ini�al mode "GAL REM". From this ini�al mode the pilot may change modes (in the above
sequence) by pressing the "FUNCT" bu�on.
GAUGES

During the transfer from the Preflight to the Inflight condi�on, CFS computer goes through
an adjus�ng or rounding rou�ne and may add or subtract, from the "GAL REM" number, two

73
Fuel Compute r Manual

tenths (2/10) for a single engine aircra� or up to one (1) gallon for a twin. This automa�c
adjustment compensates for the "K" factor se�ng of the instrument and does not affect the
accuracy.

As noted in the Func�onal Controls Sec�on the first three Inflight modes, "GAL REM", "LBS
REM" and "TIME REM" are nonrese�able in the Inflight condi�on. This protects the pilot
from acciden�al changes during flight. The second three Inflight modes can only be reset by
De tail ed In formation

depressing the "RESET" bu�on while in each mode. However, the "GAL US'D" and "LBS
US'D" will be reset together because the "LBS US'D" quan�ty is computed from the "GAL
REM" number. The conversion factor for this computa�on is 5.82 pounds per gallon.

In the first mode, "GAL REM", the upper display indicates fuel remaining in gallons, and the
lower display indicates fuel flow in gallons per hour. The lower display also includes a legend
that automa�cally indicates GAL/HR in all gallon modes and LB/HR in all pound modes.

The upper display includes a legend that automa�cally indicates "HR:MIN" or "MIN:SEC"
depending on which is appropriate in a given situa�on.

The second mode in sequence is the "LB REM" mode. When opera�ng the system in this
mode, the upper display will indicate pounds of fuel remaining, and the lower display will
indicate fuel flow in pounds per hour.
GAUGES

The third mode is "TIME REM" mode. When opera�ng the systemin this mode, the upper
display will indicate �me remaining to fly at the current power se�ng, and the lower display

During opera�on in the "TIME REM" mode the �me remaining display will vary as the power
se�ngs are increased or decreased.

The "LOW FUEL" warning legend located in the center of the instrument is designed to come
on when the current power se�ng results in a "TIME REM" of less than one (1) hour. If the
"TIME REM" drops below thirty (30) minutes the legend will blink to furthur no�fy the pilot
of a Low Fuel Status.

The fourth mode is the "GA US'D" mode. When opera�ng the system in this mode, the
upper display will indicate gallons used and the lower display will indicate fuel flow in gallons
per hour. This mode may be reset to zero by pressing the "RESET" bu�onl; however this will
also reset the "LBS US'D".

The fi�h mode is the "LB US'D" mode. When opera�ng the system in this mode, the upper
display will indicate pounds used and the lower display will indicate fuel flow in pounds per
hour.This mode may be reset to zero by pressing the "RESET" bu�on; however this will also
reset the "GALUS'D".

The sixth mode is the "TIMER" mode. While opera�ng the system in this mode, elapsed �me
is indicated. The "TIMER" mode indicates minutes and seconds up to nine minutes and fi�y-
nine seconds and hours and minutes beyond that point. The elapsed �me is indicated in the
GAUGES

upper display and the lower display indicates fuel flow in gallons per hour. When the
"TIMER" mode is selected the elapsed �me may be reset by pressing the "RESET" bu�on.

3.0 SYSTEM MAINTENANCE


De tail ed In formation

The Fillup number is normally held for a period of one year by the three small Eveready
MS-76 ba�eries in the rear of the instrument. These ba�eries should be replaced once each
year. During installa�on and a�er replacing the ba�eries, the Fillup number (aircra� total
usable fuel) may
need to be reprogrammed. The following procedure will explain the steps necessary to
change or reprogram the Fillup number.

3.1 PROGRAMMING THE FLLUP NUMBER

The CFS-1000A/1001A cannot be programmed for a "FILLUP" number greater than 99.9
gallons unless switch #3 is turned to the ON posi�on.

FILLUP programming may be performed on the bench with a 14v or 28v DC power source or
GAUGES

in the aircra� with aircra� power.

A. On the CFS-1000A/2000A, remove the one screw a�aching the instrument ba�ery cover.

need not be removed. The ba�ery compartment will be directly below on the CFS-1000A/
2000A only. Locate the far le� switch marked #1 and push to the ON or CLOSED posi�on. All
other switches are pre-set at the factory. Do not change their posi�on. In the event their
posi�on is changed, refer to the Switch Table to reposi�on them.

B. Turn the aircra� master switch ON. Note all the digits on the top display have gone to zero
and the far le� zero is blinking. The minus sign on the right hand side of the display is the
De tail ed In formation

low ba�ery indicator in the CFS-1000A/2000A only.

C. Press the "SET" bu�on to advance the blinking digit to a number equalling the first
number in the aircra�'s usable fuel. Press the "FUNCT" bu�on once and observe that the
second digit is now blinking. Press the "SET" bu�on to advance the blinking digit to the
desired second number of the aircra�'s usable fuel.

Press the "FUNCT" bu�on again. This will cause the third and final digit to blink as did the
first two digits. Press the "SET" bu�on, advancing the third digit to the desired final figure in
the aircra�'s usable fuel. Press the "FUNCT" bu�on and note the legend "VERIFY". Press the
"ENTER" bu�on if this number corresponds to the aircra�'s usable fuel. The programmed
number may change or blank out. This is normal, con�nue programing with step D.

D. Locate the mini-switch marked #1 and push to the OFF or OPEN posi�on. (CFS-1000A/
