30.4.9.1 AOA Calibration (Performed In-flight)
Installations that include a GAP 26 and which have AOA enabled require that an AOA calibration be
performed to enable AOA functionality. The AOA calibration is used to find the four AOA settings shown
in Figure 30-7. These calibrations must be done while in flight. The AOA Setup page (Figure 30-9
) on
PFD 1 is used for the AOA cal procedure, and is accessed in normal mode (requires that an AOA input is
enabled on the LRU Configuration page, see Section 30.4.6
, and Advanced User Setup is enabled on the
System Options Page, see Section 30.4.4
).
NOTE
In the absence of a configured flap position sensor, or dedicated Flaps Down discrete
input, only a single calibration curve will be available.
WARNING
AOA calibration involves flying the aircraft at low airspeeds and angles of attack at or near
the stall point. Do not perform AOA calibration until the aircraft's stall recovery
characteristics are well-understood. Before AOA calibration, make sure the aircraft is clear
of all traffic and at a safe altitude for stall recovery.
