Audio Options Range: 1 to 32 / Default: 32
The Audio Options setting controls how the onboard piezo/beeper is utilized throughout flight operations. Aside from the
drogue or main activation, activating the piezo it is the single ‐ most battery intensive task the altimeter performs. The
setting is specified in a binary ‐ based value according to the following table:
Beep Battery Voltage (X.X volts) Pre ‐ Launch Setting Value + 1
Beep Deployment Mode and Main Altitude Pre ‐ Launch Setting Value + 2
Enable Pad Power Saver Mode (disable continuity beeps) Setting Value + 4
Beep Peak Flight Velocity Post ‐ Flight Setting Value + 8
Beep Time to Apogee (seconds) Post ‐ Flight Setting Value + 16
Disable all Audio Options Setting Value + 32
For example, if you wanted to beep the Pre ‐ Launch Battery Voltage (+1) and in addition, employ the use of the Pad Power
Saver Mode (+4), you would set the Audio Options setting to (5).
All of the audio option settings are basically self ‐ explanatory; the exception however is the Pad Power Saver Mode. If this
option is enabled, the continuity beeping you hear initially in Launch Detect Mode will stop after 5 minutes. In place of
continuity beeping, the altimeter will emit 1 short “beep” every 15 seconds to indicate it is armed and in launch detect
mode, saving a lot of battery power for your inevitable pad wait time and subsequent flight.
Audio / LCD / Telemetry Units Range: 1 to 4 / Default: 1
The Units setting determines how the RRC3 will report all the flight performance values. This setting applies to all forms of
data reporting (the audio “beeping”, the data displayed on the optional LCD terminal, and the values transmitted in flight
via the telemetry capability). Choose a setting that is most appropriate for you as follows:
1. Imperial Units (feet, deg F) / Velocity (feet per second / fps)
2. Metric Units (meters, deg C) / Velocity (Kilometers per hour / KPH)
3. Imperial Units (feet, deg F) / Velocity (Miles per hour /MPH)
4. Metric Units (meters, deg C) / Velocity (meters per second /mps)
Low Voltage Lockout Level Range: 2 to 9 / Default: 2
This setting will validate the RRC3 battery voltage is above a minimum voltage level that’s appropriate for your battery
system. A setting of (2) disables this lockout feature. If this lockout feature is enabled, and the battery voltage is at or
below the specified setting, the unit will not arm itself for flight, and instead activate the POST fault code report mode (see
the POST fault codes )
Piezo Tone Range: 2 to 12 / Default: 12
This setting determines the frequency the piezo “beeper” will operate at. The lowest setting will result in a higher
frequency (6.25 KHz), and the highest setting results in the lowest frequency (1.04 KHz). Use this when multiple electronics
are onboard your rocket to distinguish the beeping of one unit from another, or to adjust the tone to a frequency that you
can hear.
