Bräuniger GmbH
Operating Philosophy
Bräuniger GmbH’s philosophy is to produce user-friendly instruments.
A quick press of each key lets you access the main functions of the instrument. Hold a
key down for about three seconds to call up
Set-Mode
for that function. From there, a
further three-second press will call up
Option-Mode
for that key.
In Set-Mode and Option-Mode, the keys labeled
START/STOP/RESET
and
CLEAR-ALT
become Arrow Keys. With these you can change the display fields, which flash to
indicate they are changeable. After making changes in Set-Mode, use a short press to
return to Run-Mode or wait three seconds.
Run-Mode
During normal use the instrument is in
Run-Mode
. In this mode the instrument shows
sink or climb rate, airspeed (if the optional sensor is plugged in) and/or temperature,
altitude, altitude difference, time, battery condition and the activated acoustic signals.
When in this mode, all the main functions can be called up by briefly pressing the keys.
•
volume of the acoustic signal (main Variometer)
•
ON/OFF of the sink warning alarm (main sink alarm warning)
•
change of height displays (main altimeter)
•
reset height difference (main altimeter)
•
START/STOP of stop watch (main time functions)
•
change between TIME-CHRONO and MEMO displays (main time functions)
Set-Mode
To enter Set-Mode for a given key, press and hold the key for about three seconds;
SET
will appear in the lower portion of the display. The relevant display field will flash and can
be altered with the Arrow Keys. After making your changes, either wait three seconds or
use a short press to return to Run-Mode. A three-second press when in Set-Mode will
take you to Option-Mode.
Option-Mode
When in Set-Mode, press the same key again for three seconds to bring the instrument
into Option-Mode;
OPT
will appear in the lower portion of the display. Here you can
change the settings of various values (see more details below). Again, the relevant field
will flash and can be altered with the arrow keys. Use a short press to keep your changes
and go on to the next option; when you reach the last option a short press will cycle the
instrument back to the first option. When you are finished setting the options, wait three
seconds to return to Run-Mode.
