Operating Instructions Flytec 6005/6010
Acoustic Vario
The 6005/6010 will beep when you are climbing at a rate greater than a predetermined
threshold. As your climb rate increases, as shown in the analog vario display, the
frequency and pitch of the beep increase linearly. The rate at which the pitch and
frequency increase can be set in the Vario Option-Mode (option 4). The threshold at which
the beeping starts can be set in the Vario Option-Mode (option 3). By adjusting these two
values you can optimize the vario acoustic to suit your soaring conditions. In option 5 of
the Vario Option-Mode, Automatic Scale Indication (ASI) can be turned on. With ASI
turned on there will be two styles of vario audio beeping, one for 200-400, 600-800 ft/min
ranges and one for 0-200, 400-600, 800-1000 ft/min ranges. With the change in acoustic
style you will be alerted when you improve your climb rate (e.g., when you increase you
climb rate from 190 ft/min to 210 ft/min.)
Use a series of short presses on the Vario Key to set the
internal speaker volume. There are six levels ranging from zero
volume (silent) to maximum and back to zero. The volume
status is shown in three stages in the display.

When a new level is set, there is a time lag of about 0.5 seconds before it activates. This
also applies when switching off from level 6 to level 0.

The basic damping of the variometer is set here. Four levels are
displayed. The settings correspond with the following damping
periods:
Level

Damping about 0.5 sec 1 sec 2 sec 3 sec
This setting influences all further filters. You can also use it as a
turbulence filter: in still air set damping to 1, and in turbulent air
set it to 3 or 4.
