XC Tracer Maxx Firmware Update / How to read flight data
Connect XC Tracer Maxx to a computer using a USB-C cable and once connected, switch the
device on by briefly pressing the red button until you hear a beep-beep-beep. XC Tracer Maxx is now
running in USB-MSD (Mass Storage Device) mode. XC Tracer Maxx
’s
internal Micro SD Card will
appear as an external drive in Windows Explorer or the Mac Finder. Download the newest flight
firmware for XC Tracer Maxx and the newest FLARM firmware from
xctracer.com
and copy the
new firmware using drag and drop to the SD card. Now press the red button briefly and the new
firmware will start to be installed.
When the XC Tracer Maxx firmware (*.iap file) is updated, after a short time a few ascending
beeps sound, the firmware file is deleted from the SD card and the vario switches off. The new
firmware is now installed.
An update of the FLARM firmware takes much longer, after pressing the red button it will last1-5
minutes until a few ascending beeps will sound, the FLARM firmware file or obstacle database file
will be deleted from the SD card and the vario will turn off. The new version is now installed.
Important: The information about the firmware version will only be updated once the device has
been started up in normal flight mode. Only one update at a time. If you want to update 2 files you
have to repeat the process.
It’s
impossible to install incorrect firmware on the XC Tracer Maxx
–
all that happens is that the
incompatible firmware will get deleted from the SD card.
Troubleshooting
In the rare event that XC Tracer Maxx
doesn’t
respond when you push the red button, you can
perform a hard-reset by pressing and holding the red button for approximately 1 minute. The
battery will then get disconnected from the electronics. After that you can restart XC Tracer Maxx
in flight mode, and the device will be functional again.
Handling
A variometer is a sensitive device, the electronics, the sensors and the LCD display can be
damaged by strong impacts or shocks. Handle your instrument with care!! Please only expose the
vario to the sun during the flight, otherwise the instrument can become very hot. This can cause the
battery to overheat and destroy the battery and the vario! The LCD can also be damaged by
excessive heat or a lot of UV light. The vario is not waterproof.
