TRIO AVIATION ALTITUDE CONTROL

The EZ-2 incorporates all of the features of the EZ-1, and enables the system to control climbs and descents. To set a climb or descent rate, the pilot simply presses the encoder knob to enter the "VS" (Vertical Speed) mode and rotates the encoder to select the appropriate value, in 100 fpm increments.

An internal airspeed sensor (connected to the pitot system) monitors preset airspeed limits (set by the pilot) to prevent the system from stalling or over-speeding the aircraft. Example: If the pilot enters a very high climb rate, as the airplane reaches the minimum airspeed the autopilot will continue the climb at that airspeed, rather than the commanded vertical rate.

Features

• Vertical Speed Select - Set Climb or Descent Rate
• Min and Max Airspeed Limits - System Measures Airspeed and Prevents Autopilot from Stalling or Over-speeding the Aircraft. Pilots Set Appropriate Limit Settings for Their Aircraft
• Vertical PCS (Pilot Command Steering) - Pilot May Choose "Climb-Descend on Vertical Rate" or "Climb-Descend on Airspeed"
