User Manual XC Tracer Maxx
Rev 01 23.2.2020
Quick Start Guide
Attach the vario to your cockpit or onto your thigh. Press and hold the red button until you hear
beep-beep, then release the button. The logo appears while the vario is searching for GPS satellites
and as soon as the logo disappears the vario is ready and you can take off. You can switch screens
with a short push on the button, and you can change the volume level by double pressing the button.
After landing, switch the vario off by pressing the button until you hear beep-beep, then release the
button.
If you want to change the settings: press the button twice in quick succession and hold it down for a
second time. In the settings move the point with a short press of the button, with a long press
select the entry. The Vario is preset to beep only when flying. But you can set this as you wish.
If you want to download the tracks or change the configuration file then connect XC Tracer Maxx to
your computer with one of the included USB cables. Now switch on the vario and the SD card of XC
Tracer Maxx will appear on the computer as a USB hard drive. Now you can download tracks,
change settings in the config file, or copy new firmware updates to the SD card. The new firmware
does get installed as soon as you switch off the vario. Please note that this can take a while when
updating firmware for Flarm or uploading a Flarm obstacle database.
