5.3.3
Vario Parameters
This option is used to set the following parameters:
5.3.3.1
Vario needle filter
Sets a time constant of the vario needle. The value can be adjusted between 0.1 and 5 s
with step 1.0 s or 0.1 s. Default value is 1.5 s.
5.3.3.2
Vario sound filter
Sets a time constant of vario sound. The value can be adjusted between 0.1 and 5 s with
step 1.0 s or 0.1 s. Default value is 1.5 s.
5.3.3.3
Smart filter
The Smart Filter allows additional filtering of the vertical speed. It defines the difference
between increasing vertical speed versus decreasing vertical speed. (E.g: If the vario filter
is set to 1s and the Smart Filter set to 4s, the filtering for increasing vario would be 1s and
for decreasing vario would be 2s. This will produce an effect similar to a Sage Variometer.
5.3.3.4
Vario range
Sets full scale range of the vario (2.5 m/s, 5 m/s or 10 m/s). Default value is 5 m/s (10 kts).
5.3.3.5
SC tab
Defines the width of the audio dead band in speed to fly mode. Default value is ±1 m/s.
5.3.3.6

Defines the conditions when the instrument will switch automatically between vario and
speed to fly mode.
