Emsis

A simple to use and affordable engine information system which can be used in conjunction with Nesis or as a standalone instrument. Emsis is available as a standalone or secondary EMS, PFD or Navigation instrument.

Emsis Software Update Tutorial

We take great care to design our instruments lightweight and slim as possible. Emsis weighs from 235 g to 312 g.

  

Pressure connection

The instrument must be connected to the total pressure source. Total pressure source is obtained from the total port on the pitot tube.

Static connection

Emsis must be connected to the static pressure source. Either fuselage side surfaces or from the static port on the pitot tube.

CAN bus connection

Used to connect other CAN devices. Connectors are equivalent so either one can be used to connect a CAN device.

OAT connection

Connects to the Kanardia OAT digital probe.

GPS connection

Is used for external GPS antenna needed by the GPS receiver integrated on AHRS unit.

Encoder connection (optional)

Connects with external encoder for regulating QNH.

RS 485 connection

Used to connect with devices via 485 protocol such as indicators or LX Cluster.

Push buttons

Emsis uses six (80 mm version) or five (3.5" screen version) small push buttons to manipulate the user interface.

SD card slot

Emsis has a SD card slot for software, maps and data updates.

PFD version

Primary flight display

80 mm version

3.5 inch version

Advantages:

  •  low cost (for what it can provide),
  • extremely low power consumption (2.5W at 12V),
  • unbelievably bright display,
  • lightweight design,
  • Nesis and CAN bus compatible,
  • feature rich.

Emsis PFD shows:

  • attitude (roll, pitch),
  • indicated airspeed (IAS),
  • altitude,
  • QNH settings,
  • vario,
  • heading rate (1 minute and 30 seconds turn),
  • outside air temperature (OAT),
  • tracking course,
  • moving map,
  • logbook.

Sensors. All sensors but the OAT are integrated.

  • precise altitude pressure sensor; pitostatic,
  • precise IAS (indicated airspeed) sensor; pitostatic,
  • three angular rate sensors; gyros (one per axis),
  • three accelerometers,
  • GPS receiver,
  • digital outside temperature sensor.

PFD screen

Primary flight display shows artificial horizon with flight data information.

Navigation screen

Emsis can also show raster maps on graphical display.

EMS screen (optional)

When engine monitoring unit (DAQU) is present on CAN bus, Emsis PFD can also show relevant engine and fuel information.

Integrated GPS/AHRS/Pitot

Emsis PFD has a built in global positioning system, an altitude and heading reference system, pressure measurement system and much more.

External OAT sensor

Emsis PFD comes supplied with digital outside temperature sensor.

Logbook

Emsis automatically keeps a log of flights and stores them in a logbook.

EMS version

Engine monitoring system

80 mm version

3.5 inch version

Emsis EMS requires a DAQU to be present on the CAN bus.

Emsis, when used as standalone engine monitoring EMS can show:

  • CHTs,
  • EGTs,
  • engine RPM,
  • rotor RPM,
  • fuel flow,
  • fuel level (up to two tanks),
  • alternator and battery current,
  • voltage,
  • oil pressure,
  • oil temperature,
  • water (coolant) temperature,
  • airbox temperature,
  • manifold pressure,
  • pneumatic pressure.

And when used together with Nesis or PFD instrument, it can show:

  • airspeed (IAS and or TAS),
  • altitude,
  • vario,
  • engine time,
  • moving map,
  • logbook.

EMS screen

Engine monitoring screen with various engine parameters.

Navigation screen (optional)

Emsis EMS can also show raster maps on graphical display.

PFD screen (optional)

When AHRS unit is present on CAN bus, Emsis EMS can also show flight information on graphical display, too.
