User Manual XC Tracer Maxx
Rev 01 23.2.2020
Buddy Screen
On the Buddy Screen you can see all paraglider and hang glider pilots who fly with a Flarm device
and have been received by the XC Tracer Maxx in the last 5 minutes. Your position is in the middle
of the circles, and from one circle to the next the distance doubles.
The dots show paragliders or hang gliders that are equipped with Flarm that are flying, and the
triangles show pilots with Flarm that have not yet taken off or landed.
In the config file you can define the Radio ID and a name for up to 8 Buddies. These buddies are
then displayed as large points or triangles. The height and climb of your buddies will be displayed. So
you always know where your buddies are.
If you have defined more than 4 Buddies, the info of the first 4 Buddies will be displayed for 10
seconds, after that the info of Buddies 5-8 will be displayed for 10 seconds, after that info of
Buddies 1-4 will be displayed again etc.
It is important to know that the position, altitude and status (flying or not) of your Buddies are
continuously stored in the vario. This can be helpful to know where to start searching for a buddy in
extreme cases. This info can be found in the settings under SAR (Search And Rescue) Buddy. More
on how to change settings or view the settings without using a computer can be found below.
