BEFORE USING YOUR E6B

Sporty's E6B Flight Computer requires three 1.5V AAA

batteries (not included) for operation. New batteries should

be installed in the battery compartment located in the top

rear of the computer. Make sure that battery polarity is

aligned correctly.

An opaque plastic film has been placed over the display

screen to protect your E6B during shipping. This film is

easily removed by peeling up one corner and pulling

gently.

This manual is designed to offer an introduction to the

operation of the E6B. For each calculation, a sample

problem has been given.

In order to save power, the display screen automatically

turns off approximately 4 minutes after the last keystroke.

However, the internal clock and timer will continue to run. If

the timer is counting down, it will not shut off for

approximately thirty minutes.

This multi-function computer is authorized and acceptable

for use during FAA and Canadian written tests. All memory

is erased by removing and reinstalling the batteries. NOTE:

This also removes clock settings. References: FAA

Advisory Circular 60-11B and FAA Order 8081D, Conduct

of Airmen Written Tests, April 10, 1989.

The figure above shows all possible displays, prompts and

labels on the E6B. The numeric display is surrounded by

labels for specific problems. Below this are lines of text

representing display prompts, labels, and aviation

functions. Aviation functions available on the E6B will

remain visible whenever the power is on. The display

prompts and labels are only visible when in use.

SPECIAL FUNCTION KEYS

ON Turns power on and resets E6B to main menu.

OFF Turns display screen off.

TIMER Starts and stops timer function.

ENTER Selects menu function and enters data input.

=Totals regular calculator functions.

CONV Converts keys to alternate functions.

CLK Controls display and setting of clocks.

C Clears current input line.

Controls function menu cursor. The

function on which cursor is located will

blink. Arrows return computer to main

menu when in an aviation function mode.

+/- Changes negative to a positive and positive to

a negative. A negative number will be denoted

by a minus sign near the upper right hand

corner of the number. For example, to input

-17:

Press 1 7 +/-

And the screen will read 17.-

ARITHMETIC FUNCTIONS

7 8 9

4 5 6

1 2 3 -

0 • =+

Your E6B performs all of the standard arithmetic functions

with the keys shown above, (addition, subtraction,

multiplication, and division). These functions as well as any

conversions can be performed at any time, even while

performing an aviation function. The E6B will display up to

six digits of the answer.

The =key should be used to compute any arithmetic

function

AVIATION FUNCTIONS

The aviation function menu is displayed on the bottom of

the screen. Your E6B will automatically save computed

values from one aviation function to another. To override

this option, key in new value when prompted. The E6B will

save true airspeed, groundspeed, time, and fuel per hour

functions. It will also save cumulative weight and balance

totals.

CONVERSIONS

Conversions are displayed above the appropriate key, and

are listed on the next page. All conversion functions are

keyed into the computer in the same manner. For example,

to convert decimal hours to hours, minutes and seconds:

Input 4 . 2 6 2 5

PressCONV

Press 6

The answer, 04:15:45, will appear on the display.

There are no conversion keys for kilometers to statute

miles or statute miles to kilometers. To convert from

kilometers to statute miles, first convert kilometers to

nautical miles, then nautical miles to statute miles.

To convert statute miles to kilometers, first convert from

statute miles to nautical miles, then nautical miles to

kilometers.

NOTE: Conversions may be made at any time and during

any other function. For example, if a calculation prompts

for temperature in Celsius and only Fahrenheit is available,

the Fahrenheit can be entered and converted without

exiting the calculation.
