# screen version
screenVersion=Standard & Thermal & Buddy
Here you can choose which screen combination you want to have. The screens are explained below.
Only the line
screenVersion=Standard & Thermal & Buddy is interpreted by the microcontroller,
this line is used to make the settings.
# Automatic switching between standard & thermal screen
automaticSwitchScreen=yes
Here you can set whether or not you want to automatically switch from the standard screen to the
thermal screen and back. This can be useful if you want to use the thermal assistant, but prefer not
to release the brakes and press the red button to switch the screen.
# create your own vario tone settings below
beepOnlyWhenFlying=yes
When this is set XC Tracer Mini III GPS will be silent before takeoff. This is very helpful when you
have configured some kind of a thermal sniffer. With
beepOnlyWhenFlying=yes the variometer will
be silent until XC Tracer Mini III GPS detects a horizontal velocity of 4m/s or more during 1-2
seconds. With
beepOnlyWhenFlying=no the variometer will beep not only in flight, but also when you
walk or move.
setVolume=2
There are four volume settings, 0-3. With this option you set the volume that the vario will use for
beeping. When
beepOnlyWhenFlying=yes is set then the vario will be silent until you fly. Once you’re
flying the vario will beep with the volume that you have set. Remember though, that you can change
the volume during flight with a short press of the red button.
dampingFactor=0.00
