If this parameter (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 5 POLA) is set to “OFF”, all display information
relating to McCready, McCready Equivalent, Thermal Sniffer , Netto Vario is not displayed
on the instrument, creating a cleaner display for users not needing this functionality.
The thermal sniffer is an innovative function that helps you to detect a thermal early.
It alerts you with a sound and the popup message “THERMAL” when you are in a thermal
but your vario is still indicating sink because your sink rate is higher than the speed of
the rising air.
This function uses two parameters, the thermal strength and the time over which the
themal must occur.
To set the thermal detection parameters, go to (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 1 THEV) and
(ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 2 THET) to adjust the time over which a change in height is
required for detection of a thermal.
To use this function you need to set up the polar of your glider.
