Flight Data Recorder and Cellular Signal metrics logging
The DZMx has a built-in inertial measurement unit and barometric pressure sensor to record pitch, roll, acceleration, angular rate, and altitude. GPS location information is logged against these parameters. The data is logged on an SD card inside the DZMx at one-second intervals, and can be emailed to any email address at the end of the flight.
The network monitoring feature enables your Flightcell DZMx to log and transmit metrics on your network connectivity and speeds of data transmission.
This tool is purely used for fault finding and network optimization in regards to using cellular data through your DZMx and its LAN and Wi-Fi capabilities.
