General
The instrument consists of two units, the main unit (80 mm) and LCD Vario indicator (57 mm). Additional LCD Vario
indicators can be added.
The fast calculation processes and graphic displays are achieved by using modern microcontroller technology. The
sensors are modern, highly precise, temperature compensated pressure sensors for altitude and speed to eliminate errors
