  2. Course deviation indicator - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Course_deviation_indicator

    This can be used to find and follow the desired radial. Deflection is 10° deviation at full scale (each side), with each dot on the CDI representing 2°. (See Using a VOR for usage during flight.) When used with a GPS, or other RNAV equipment, it shows actual distance left or right of the programmed course line. Sensitivity is usually ...

  3. Class of accuracy in electrical measurements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Class_of_accuracy_in...

    In electrical engineering, characteristics like current or voltage can be measured by an ammeter, a voltmeter, a multimeter, etc.The ammeter is used in series with the load, so the same current flows through the load and the ammeter.

  4. VHF omnidirectional range - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VHF_omnidirectional_range

    DVOR (Doppler VOR) ground station, collocated with DME. On-board VOR display with CDI MCT DVOR, Manchester Airport, United Kingdom.. Very High Frequency Omnidirectional Range Station (VOR) [1] is a type of short-range VHF radio navigation system for aircraft, enabling aircraft with a VOR receiver to determine the azimuth (also radial), referenced to magnetic north, between the aircraft to/from ...

  5. Multimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multimeter

    The product of the basic full-scale deflection current of the movement, and the sum of the series resistance and the movement's own resistance, gives the full-scale voltage of the range. As an example, a meter movement that required 1 mA for full-scale deflection, with an internal resistance of 500 Ω, would, on a 10 V range of the multimeter ...

  6. Full scale - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Full_scale

    Since binary integer representation range is asymmetrical, full scale is defined using the maximum positive value that can be represented. [1] [2] For example, 16-bit PCM audio is centered on the value 0, and can contain values from −32,768 to +32,767. A signal is at full-scale if it reaches from −32,767 to +32,767.

  7. Ohmmeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohmmeter

    An analog ohmmeter. An ohmmeter is an electrical instrument that measures electrical resistance (the opposition offered by a circuit or component to the flow of electric current). Multi-meters also function as ohmmeters when in resistance-measuring mode. An ohmmeter applies current to the circuit or component whose resistance is to be measured.

  9. Difference in the depth of modulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Difference_in_the_Depth_of...

    When an aircraft follows the course line, the difference in the depths of the modulation between the two frequencies is zero. This difference is conventionally displayed by the deflection of a moving coil indicator or needle on an instrument known as a horizontal situation indicator (HSI).
