Instruction Manual XC Tracer Maxx II Rev 02 4.07.2023 Instruction Manual XC Tracer Maxx II Instruction Manual XC Tracer Maxx II Rev 02 4.07.2023 Brief instructions Fix the vario on the cockpit or on your thigh. Press the red button and wait until beep-beep, then release the button. At first only the logo appears, after a few seconds the preset screen appears. As long as the vario is searching for GPS satellites, the word GPS will flash in the upper right corner. As soon as a GPS fix is available, the battery symbol is displayed and you can start. You can change the screen by a short push on the button. You can change the volume level by double- clicking on 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 on the second click. To get to the desired setting press the button once briefly; with a long press select/change the setting. 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 II to your computer with the included USB-C cable. Now switch on the vario and the SD card of XC Tracer Maxx II 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 is installed as soon as you switch off the vario. Important: Before disconnecting from the computer, please always eject the SD card on the computer. WARNING: Charge the battery with the USB cable on the PC or on a 5V charger. Only a 5V connection / charger may be used, do not use Fast Charge / Quick Charge / Super Charge / Turbo Power or whatever. If a voltage higher than 5V is used while charging, the electronics will be destroyed. Never use a cheap charger; this can damage your XC Tracer Maxx II. We accept no responsibility for damage which occurs when not using the correct voltage for charging! Instruction Manual XC Tracer Maxx II Rev 02 4.07.2023 Introduction XC Tracer Maxx II is a high-precision GPS variometer with a perfectly readable LCD and integrated collision warning using FLARM. XC Tracer Maxx II transmits its position once per second and also the estimated flight path for the next 20 seconds. Other FLARM devices in the vicinity can then draw conclusions about a possible risk of collision. In case of a possible collision the corresponding FLARM device warns the pilot of the other aircraft. XC Tracer Maxx II itself does not warn you of possible collisions with other aircraft. Many pilots use XC Tracer flight instruments for long XC flights and for competitions. But also for pilots with little flying experience an XC Tracer Variometer is the perfect choice. The lag-free indication of lift / sink rate makes it much easier to find and core thermals than when using a conventional variometer. All essential flight information is displayed on the LCD. XC Tracer Maxx II is also an IGC logger – the IGC files are approved by the FAI for paragliding competitions. XC Tracer Maxx II has a built-in lithium-polymer battery, fully charged the battery is good for at least 60 hours of continuous operation. The battery is charged via the supplied USB-C cable. The device also has a Bluetooth module. Using Bluetooth Low Energy 4.2, data such as airspeed, altitude, climb, course etc. can be transferred to a mobile phone, tablet or e-reader. Please check xctracer.com to see which apps need to be configured with which BLE strings. Mounting XC Tracer Maxx II uses data from a 9-DOF IMU (9 Degrees Of Freedom Inertial Measurement Unit), from the GPS and from a pressure sensor, to compute the real-time climb rate and altitude, avoiding the undesired time lag that conventional variometers suffer from (due to data filtering). For this reason mount your XC Tracer Maxx II in such a way that it moves as little as possible in relation to the harness during flight. It is therefore important that the XC Tracer Maxx II is firmly attached to the cockpit or thigh with the velcro provided. Mounting on the riser is not ideal. Important – leave 4-5cm free space around your vario; otherwise the performance of the FLARM / FANET beacon may be compromised. Switch On/Switch Off The XC Tracer Maxx II is switched on by pressing the red button until a "beep-beep" is heard. Then release the button and the XC Tracer Maxx II will start up. After switching on, the battery charge level is indicated acoustically. At first only the logo appears, after a few seconds the preset screen appears. As long as the vario is searching for GPS satellites, the word GPS flashes in the upper right corner. As soon as there is a GPS fix, this lettering disappears and the battery symbol is displayed. Now you can start. You can change the screen by a short push on the button. You can change the volume by double clicking on it. After landing, switch off the vario by pressing the button until you hear a beep-beep and the vario is switched off. Instruction Manual XC Tracer Maxx II Rev 02 4.07.2023 Battery Indicator After switching the device on the battery charge status is indicated with a sequence of short beeps: 5x Beep means that the battery is charged 95% or more. 4x Beep means that the battery is charged 75% or more. 3x Beep means that the battery is charged 55% or more. 2x Beep means that the battery is charged 35% or more. 1x Beep means that the battery is charged 15% or more. When the battery is less than 15% charged you will hear a constant beep for one second after switching the device on. The battery charge level is also displayed on the LCD. Adjusting The Volume XC Tracer Maxx II has 4 volume settings: Mute, very gentle, gentle, medium and loud. You can change the volume level by double pressing the red button (like a double click on the mouse of your computer), always from mute – ve…
