Vario setting mode
You can enter the vario’s setting mode by pres-
sing the key for a long time (approxima-
tely 3 seconds).
This automatically activates the
final approach computer (on) or, if pressed
again, deactivates it (off). The preset wind com-
ponent is shown in the SPEED display for the
purpose of information.
You can enter option mode by simultaneously
pressing the two option keys.
Vario option mode
The basic attenuation of the vario can be alte-
red at the first level of option mode. The basic
attenuation of the vario is effective on all vario
functions; it can be set to 0.5 sec, 1 sec or
1.5 sec.
N.B.: The fastest vario is not always the best
vario. In very rough and severe conditions, it is
advisable to attenuate the vario more. Turbu-
lences are then filtered out by the attenuation
and not displayed.
The integration time of the digital vario can be
altered at the second level of option mode. The
values are in 5-second steps between 5 and 35
seconds and appear flashing in the digital vario
display. At setting 1, the digital vario is display-
ed without averaging and then runs parallel to
the bar display. The values can be altered with
the and the keys.
The audio response point can be adjusted at the third level. The audio response point can be
adjusted from +2 cm/s to +40 cm/s. The current response point appears in the bar display and
represents one tenth of the value displayed. E.g.: a display of 2 m/s corresponds to an audio
response point of 20 cm/s.
The digital vario unit can be selected at the fourth level: m/s or feet/min x 100. The current set-
ting flashes in the digital vario display. You can switch between the two units with the key.
