General Settings
A number of general settings are self explanatory:
useAudioWhenConnected (default = false). If true the hardware audio will sound when the device
is connected via Bluetooth. Note: This setting is not used on non-Bluetooth versions of the
BlueFlyVario.
useAudioWhenDisconnected (default = true). If true the hardware audio will sound when the
device is not connected via Bluetooth. Note: This setting is used on non-Bluetooth versions of the
BlueFlyVario as the overall setting to control if audio is on or off.
positionNoise (default 0.1). This setting controls one of the parameters for the Kalman Filter that is
built into the hardware code. A higher value gives less sensitivity by smoothing out the noisy
pressure measurements. Try 1.0 to see the difference.
secondsBluetoothWait (default 180). This setting controls how many seconds the hardware will
keep its bluetooth radio on while waiting for a connection. Note: This setting is not used on non-
Bluetooth versions of the BlueFlyVario.
greenLED (default = true) [from v9]. This setting controls if the greenLED will light for each lift beep.
startDelayMS(default = 0)[from some v12 firmware versions]. This setting controls the delay at
startup in milliseconds.
quietStart(default = false)[from some v12 firmware versions]. If true then startup and shutdown
beeps will not sound.
Auto Power Off
From v10 the BlueFlyVario models incorporate a button for soft power on/off instead of the slide
switch used on previous models. If the vario is not moved vertically for a period of time then it will
shutdown. The setting heightSensitivityDm controls how many decimetres the vario must be moved
in order to reset the auto power off flag. By default that is set at 20dm (equals 2m). After
heightSeconds of no movement greater than heightSensitivityDm the vario will shutdown.
