hen using the iLevil A as a “portable” device, you must first charge the internal batteries:
• Charge the iLevil2 A fully using the USB cable and dual 12V car charger supplied.
• You may use the 1amp socket for the iLevil and the 2amp socket for your tablet.
• The LED next to USB port indicates if the device is charging.
• hen the LED goes off, the battery is charged. (Takes up to 4 hrs.)
• 100% charged battery supplies power for 5 hrs.
hen connected to (12-28V) through the DB15 plug (Pin15), the batteries will be charged
automatically with external power.
Package Contents
Charge before use
• Attach the supplied ADS-B antenna and GPS antenna. See top label for reference.
• Align the airplane icon on the iLevil’s top label with the roll axis of your
aircraft. ON/OFF switch should face the back of the aircraft.
Pressure ports and Antenna connectors should face the front.
• Install iLevil on a surface that is LEVEL with the horizon DURING un-accelerated, straight and
level flight. It’s ok if it isn’t level on the ground (i.e. in tail draggers). You may use our free AHRS
App available on the AppStore to assist you with leveling the instrument.
• For optimal magnetic heading, install iLevil far away from ferrous metals as possible.
(i.e. magnetic compass, cell phones, steel airframe)
• To connect to the pitot-static system, you need two 1/8 NPT hose fittings for your specific hose size.
Connect the static line to the “static P” port and the dynamic line to the “Dynamic D” port.
Teflon is recommended when installing the fittings to prevent any leaks in the system.
• Install the end of the GPS antenna with a clear view of the sky and the ADS-B antenna with line of
sight to ground towers and nearby aircrafts.
NOTE: DO NOT rely on the iLevil for attitude & heading if it was not aligned as specified above.

The iLevil series offers the most compatibility with Apps on both iOS and Android platforms.
• Turn ON your iLevil by flipping the ON/OFF switch. (LEDs will light up)
• Tap Settings icon on your tablet.
• Tap iFi and connect to the iLevil2 – xxxx network, where “xxxx” is the unique serial number.
• Once your connection is established, a checkmark will appear next to the network name.
• Run your Navigation App of choice.
The AHRS Utility App is a free application available for iPad/iPhone for iLevil troubleshooting,
Alignment aid, Configuration etc.
Other advanced Apps may require subscriptions and offer more features than others. Some Apps
may not support all the features of the iLevil. You may choose to use one Nav App or a
combination of Apps on multiple devices depending on your flying needs.
NOTE:
• For a complete list of compatible apps go to www.aviation.levil.com/compatible-apps
• To download a compatible App to your iPad/iPhone search using the AppStore on your tablet
• To download a compatible for your Android tablet search using the PlayStore on your tablet
• To use your iLevil2 in combination with ForeFlight, please see instructions at:

NOTE: iLevil2 has a charging temperature protection. If the battery is above 40°C (104°F) and
the iLevil2 is connected to external power, the iLevil2 will continue to operate from external
power but the charging process will be disabled. The charging LED status will be set to OFF.
LED Indicators
There are two ways to obtain heading information from the iLevil, depending on the navigation
App of choice, you may choose between the following:
- True Track: Heading information based on GPS track.
- Magnetic Heading: Heading information determined by a combination of 3-axis
magnetometer and gyros that form part of the internal AHRS.
W en using Magnetic Heading, it is important to know t e following:
• Magnetic fields caused by other Magnetic Compass etc, may affect the AHRS heading.
• Verify your magnetic heading after following alignment and installation procedures:
(use AHRS Utility App -> options -> Heading -> Use magnetic)
• In case of magnetic deviation, the internal AHRS will slowly learn your aircraft configuration
during flight to compensate. This learning process requires the aircraft to turn both clockwise and
counter clockwise for at least 40 seconds.
• After turning, or at the end of your flight, verify the magnetic heading again using the AHRS
Utility App. If the AHRS was able to successfully compensate for errors, you may store this
data inside the iLevil and it will use this new configuration on the next power cycle:
(AHRS Utility -> Device Config -> Enable Configuration -> Save Mag Data).
• If AHRS was unable to compensate for errors after turns, try using a different location.
• ERASE Magnetic data using AHRS Utility before attempting a different location or moving
iLevil to a different aircraft or environment.

• For best ADS-B reception line of sight view with ADS-B ground based towers and min 2000 ft.
• indshields with integrated heating elements will severely attenuate GPS and ADS-B signals.
• Ferrous materials inside aircraft affect the compass reading
• This product contains a Lithium-Ion battery. Li-Ion batteries are volatile.
•Never c arge batteries unattended. hen charging Lithium-Ion Batteries, you should always
constantly monitor the charging process to be able to respond to any problems that may occur.
• hen transporting or temporarily storing in an airplane or vehicle, temperature range should
be no less than 20 °F(-12 °C) and not more than 150 °F (65 °C).
• Storing Lithium-Ion batteries at temperatures higher than 170 °F for extended periods of time
(more than 2 hrs.) may cause damage to battery and possible fire.
• DO NOT disassemble, remodel, drop, or let the iLevil2 get wet!
• Not all traffic is displayed using ADS-B in. Most aircraft are not currently ADS-B Out equipped
and therefore not detectable by the iLevil. Do not use the iLevil as an anti-collision system.
• AHRS/GPS data provided is not FAA certified. Do not use it as a primary instrument for IFR
