T.E. Static hose

I've got a red line (hose) under my panel and according to the diagram
in the maintenance manual for this glider this is the T.E. static.
I've got a L-NAV and a Borgelt B-40, where might I want to connect this
line to?

OK guess I've got all you experts stumped out there. Here's my choyces
comming off the T.E. probe, Pitot I got that one figured out. T.E.
green Got that one figured out. T.E. static red ???

Maybe we are just confused! A TE probe has only one hose - the one for
the TE probe. What you have is a "multi-probe", with a hose for the TE
probe mounted on it, plus two additional hoses: pitot and static.

For my ASH 26 E:

Red = TE probe
Green = Pitot
Clear = Static

You probably have two sets of green and clear (nose pitot and tail boom
static), so be sure you are using the right ones.

Eric thanks, I've got the clear static figured out ALT, ASI , Encoder
thats on the sides of the fuslage (sp).

The manuel for this DG-600 (the same for DG-800) says Red is static M .
ar is pitot, Green T.E. The red DOES comes off of the probe assembly.

see page 23 for drawing.
Thanks Russ

You have a 3-way probe. TE, pitot and static.
Blow gently in the red tube and have a helper tell you which hole(s)
the air comes from. I suspect it will be the set of holes around the
horizonal part of the probe - the static holes.
The hole in the tip is the pitot and the hole(s) in the short sideways
tube is the TE.

Have your helper use their eye to feel the air, that way you need to
blow quite gently.

Ya but what do I do with it?

Assuming the red line is from the TE, you should connect it to the TE input
on the LNAV. You should also connect an in-line T and use the red TE for the
other vario if you have one. If the additional vario is mechanical, it'll
have two inputs, the other goes to the flask.

all the best,

Place the in-line "T" as far back as possible away from the instruments.
This will add some pneumatic resistance between the instruments, preventing
cross-talk. Placing the "T" under the seat-pan is usually far back enough.
