Telemetry Data sent in real time at high speed by the AIR-BT via
Bluetooth.
How to use telemetry communication via Bluetooth:
o
On your AIR-BT, do a one-time setting of the format in which it will transmit the data: ADVANCED SETUP \ n.
25 TELE = FL2
o
Do a one-time setting of the communication type parameter ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 26 BLUT = ON.
o
In order to use the TopHat software you must have already previously done (only once) the pairing
procedure with the external device (see 13.2.1)
o
To correctly decode the Digifly’s telemetry, it is necessary (only once) to enter in the TopHat : FLY mode,
Menu 3/4, Set up TopHat, Devices, Edit Device A : Port: Digifly Airnnn (where “nnn” are the last three digits
of your instrument’s serial number), Driver: Digifly Leonardo, Close configuration.
o
The steps to follow each time you want to send the telemetry are:
1) On the AIR-BT, go to MENU “Telemetry BT”.
2) Run the TopHat software on the external device.
3) When the AIR-BT receives from the confirmation that it is connected the external device, it automatically
exits from the "Telemetry BT" menu, returns to the current page of instruments, turns the Bluetooth icon on
and activates the continuous transmission of real-time Digifly telemetry data at high speed. In case of
problems, press the
key on the AIR-BT to exit and try again.
If everything is correct, the "Monitor" page in TopHat will display the telemetry data transmitted from the AIR-BT
