Vario sound: Sound can either be switched off entirely or 2 volume levels can be set by repeatedly pressing the volume key (10). The volume level
currently set will sound when the key is pressed.
When the unit is switched on, the volume is automatically set at level 1.
Ascent tone: A sound interval with a rising tone frequency dependent on ascent frequency and a timbre dependent on scale (ASI: Acoustic Scale
Indication). The response point is set to optimum response time (factory setting) and can be altered by means of a regulator inside the unit (please consult
a specialist).
Descent tone / descent alarm: A continuous falling tone frequency dependent on descent with a timbre dependent on scale (ASI: Acoustic Scale
Indication). Can be switched on or off by pressing the descent tone key (9). On switching on the descent tone/alarm and pressing the key, a segment will
appear in the descent sector of the vario display to indicate the current response point. When the descent tone/alarm is switched off, pressing the key will
not produce a display. The descent tone/alarm will only sound when the vario acoustic facility is switched on.
When the descent tone key (9) is pressed (for approx. 4 seconds), the unit moves into the adjustment mode for descent tone/alarm (see Setting mode).
The response point can be set anywhere within the full range of the scale.
Wind speed display: The vane wheel sensor is connected to the socket (6) on the left hand side of the unit. The readout appears in the lower display
sector SPEED.
Stall alarm: Pressing the SPEED key (11) continuously (for approx. 4 seconds) will cause the instrument to change into stall alarm adjustment mode (see
Setting mode). Finish by pressing the SPEED key.
Stopwatch: The stopwatch can be activated by pressing the START/STOP/RESET key. Intermediate values can be timed by pressing this key briefl y.
They will be displayed in the upper display sector CHRONO. Further intermediate values can be measured by repeatedly pressing the START/STOP/
RESET key. A fl ashing or immobile arrow in the CHRONO display sector indicates that the stopwatch has been activated. The stop watch is deactivated by
pressing the START/STOP/RESET key continuously (approx. 4 seconds). The intermediate value must be timed before doing this.
Real time, clock, date: Real time is shown in the lower display sector TIME. Change over into TIME setting mode is done by continuously pressing the
TIME key (11). Enter the hour(s) and minute(s), fi nish by pressing the TIME key. Enter the day and the month and press the TIME key. Enter the year and
press the TIME key.
Peak value memory: Pressing the MEMO key (11) will display the fl ight data and peak values of the current fl ight (0) which are continuously updated
during the fl ight.
Maximum absolute altitude (ALTI 1)
Maximum relative altitude (ALTI 2)
Maximum ascent
Flight time
Date
Pressing the reset key DOWN (8) or UP (7) will invoke the peak values of the last 20 fl ights (1, 2, 3, etc.), with fl ight 20 being the least recent fl ight. Flight
data is saved automatically when the unit is switched off (condition: the unit must have been switched on for 3 minutes and there must have been a clear
difference in altitude). Memories 0 to 20 are updated and the data of the least recent fl ight is deleted.
Flight time: Time is measured from the moment the unit is switched on until it is switched off. Precise fl ight time measurement is done by switching on the
REC switch (13) at take-off and switching it off on landing. This function is only available if the REC switch is at OFF prior to switching the unit on. lf the
REC switch is not switched off manually, the fl ight time will be measured until the unit is switched off.
The stopwatch can also be used for fl ight time measurement. However, these times are not saved when the unit is switched off.
Battery change: Unscrew the unit and open up the back. Use a 9 V hattery.
Changeover to rechargeable battery operation: Order the FLYTEC AKKU SET from your local dealer (2 rechargeable batteries and 1 charging unit).
N.B. Only use rechargeable batteries! The charging unit must never be connected when non rechergeable batteries are being used.
Water damage: Open the unit immediately. lf salt water has entered the unit, rinse it thoroughly (the printed circuit board, in particular) with hand-hot fresh
water. Allow the unit to dry as well as possible, preferably in the sun. lf this is not possible, the unit must be placed on a piece of wood in an oven. Allow the
unit to dry off for one or two hours as required, at atemperature of approx. 50ºC. Leave the oven door open slightly to allow any moisture to escape!
N.B. Never put the unit in a microwave oven !
Attachment: Clip or special attachment for hang-glider (fi t to the rear of the unit). The clip can be unscrewed, rotated 90º and refi tted.
Adjusting the security cord: Open the unit, cut the cord to the required length and knot it well. Tighten the cord from the outside and screw the unit
together again.
Servicing, repairs: Return the unit to your nearest FLYTEC service agent.
