or ENTER type (flying into the cylinder) and one, or several possible start times (Startgates).
Conditions for a validated start:
After start time release, when the start time (0:00) is attained or exceeded, for:
1. Start mode EXIT, the pilot must show a position inside of the start cylinder.
2. Start mode ENTER, the pilot must show a position outside of the start cylinder.

3.4.3.2 Comp. Route Start signals
The „Start time zero signal“ sounds as soon as the start time „Count Down“ attains 0:00 .
The Start OK signal only sounds, when the pilot is present after the start release Start time
0:00 or later:
1. Exit Cylinder Start inside of the cylinder.
2. Enter Cylinder Start outside of the cylinder.
After the Start OK Signal the next active Waypoint is enabled, in this case Waypoint 2.
All navigation related indicator calculations and the directional arrow point to Waypoint 2.
If the pilot decides to take the next Start Gate, he must again select the first WP in the Routes
function (long pressure on the Route key) by scrolling up to this item with the ▲ key.
The instrument activates again WP1 (Start Cylinder) and resets the start time higher according
to the entered difference. The start time is displayed on the time screen page with St:xx:xx.
When the last Start Gate has been reached, the start time is no longer incremented.
Remark:
In the case of Exit-Cylinder the first Waypoint after the start cylinder must be outside of the
Start Cylinder!
In the case of ENTER-Cylinder the first Waypoint after start cylinder must be
inside of the start cylinder and typically in the centre of the start cylinder!
