User Manual XC Tracer Maxx 

 

Rev 01 23.2.2020 

Here you can set a damping factor fron 0 up to max 10. As soon as you set a damping factor then 
the vario will react slower to changes in altitude. 

ClimbToneOnThreshold=0.2 

With this setting the vario will begin to beep when the climb rate is higher than 0.2m/s. When you 
want to use a thermal sniffer then you can set 

ClimbToneOnThreshold=-0.5 for example. In this 

case the vario will begin to beep when the sink rate is less than -0.5m/s. In this way you can adjust 
the beeping tone so that you know when you’re flying in lifting air, despite the fact that you’re 
actually sinking gently. This can be helpful to find and core thermals in weak conditions. 

ClimbToneOffThreshold=0.1 

With this setting the vario will stop beeping when the climb rate is below 0.1m/s. You can also use 
negative values here, for example -0.51m/s when you use a thermal sniffer. 

SinkToneOnThreshold=-3.0 

The sink tone will be activated when the sink rate is below -3m/s. 

SinkToneOffThreshold=-3.0 

The sink tone will be deactivated when the sink rate is less than -3m/s. 

tone=-10.00,200,100,100 

tone=-3.00,280,100,100 

tone=-0.51,300,500,100 

tone=-0.50,200,800,5 

tone=0.09,400,600,10 

tone=0.10,400,600,50 

tone=1.16,550,552,52 

tone=2.67,763,483,55 

tone=4.24,985,412,58 

tone=6.00,1234,332,62 

tone=8.00,1517,241,66 

tone=10.00,1800,150,70 

You must define exactly 12 tones. Additional tones will be deleted from the configuration file, and 
missing tones will be complemented with values stored in the Eeprom. The tones must be defined 
ascending from tone 1 of -10m/s to tone 10m/s of tone 12.  

Important: Please avoid using exactly the same climb rate on adjacent tones as it will create issues.  

tone=1.16,579,527,50 means that with a climb rate of 1.16m/s the vario will beep with a 
frequency of 579Hz, that the complete tone interval will last 527ms, and that the tone will be 
audible for 50% of the tone interval. This is a typical tone that is used when indicating climbing.
