Introduction
The TC-4 is a 2 1/4” sunlight readable 4 channel thermocouple color display instrument.
The instrument can be configured for 5 different temperature display screens. The display can be configured to group
EGTs and CHTs to common settings or each thermocouple channel can be independently displayed with individual
programmable high alarm and probe type. The TC-4 also has a trend graph and maximum values display screen.
The TC-4’s high accuracy is due to its built in thermocouple linearization curves and cold junction compensation
techniques. Temperature probes can be common J, K or E type thermocouple probes as used in CHT and EGT senders.
Temperatures can be displayed in degrees Celsius or degrees Fahrenheit from -100ºC to 1200ºC (-148ºF to 2192ºF).
The TC-4 also features a built in engine leaning facility which allows the pilot to optimize the fuel mixture according to
peak EGT temperatures as well as a cruise mode facility to provide instant identification of changing EGT/CHT trends.
The TC-4 can also be interfaced via the CAN bus to an external RDAC unit (Remote Data Acquisition Unit). This allows
for easier installation as the RDAC unit is normally mounted in the engine compartment.

3.1 Trend Graph display
This display can be accessed by rotating the rotary control during the normal display
mode. The trend graph displays the last 100 seconds of temperature readings.
3.2 Maximum Values display
This display can be accessed by rotating the rotary control during the normal display
mode. Press the F1/Up button when the max values display is showing to reset the
maximum values to the current temperature values.
3.3 Engine leaning mode
EGT information is also very useful for fuel mixture control. As the fuel mixture is leaned,
so the exhaust gasses get hotter. This rise in temperature is a sign of increased
combustion efficiency as the optimum mixture setting is approached. If the leaning
progresses past a certain point however, the temperature will begin to drop. This
temperature drop is the result of reduced energy output from the diminished fuel flow.
The best operating mixture for aircraft engines is in the vicinity of this peak EGT reading.
The TC-4 has a special Leaning mode, which easily identifies the peak EGT condition
allowing you to adjust your fuel mixture for best performance.
Fuel mixture should be adjusted once you have decided on a suitable cruise power
setting (typically 70%). Press the F1/Up button on the main display to enable the engine
leaning mode. The "LEAN" label is displayed at the top of the main display to clearly
differentiate it from the normal operating mode.
As the fuel mixture is slowly leaned past the point at which the temperature begins to
drop (by more than 10°C/15°F), the absolute EGT temperatures will change to show the
EGT reading relative to this peak. The sequential order as each cylinder peaks is also
shown.
Leaning mode can be canceled by pressing the F1/Up button again.
Note: The maximum values are stored in non-volatile
memory and are recalled on power-up.
