Example:
2.4.4.5 TSK END
On entering the finish zone the task stops automatically and a message TSK END will appear. If you want to fly a new
task without landing, then it is necessary to use RESTART and SELECT. If the MOVE function has been used on the
finish point, then it will be necessary to finish the task by using the START button as in the AAT sector.
Note!:
If the finish regulations prescribe entering a cylinder, usually 2 km radius with a base of 200m, then program the finish
zone to the cylinder parameters and set the safety altitude in INIT to the height of the base of the cylinder. When on the
final glide, MOVE the finish point to the border of the cylinder and all it is then necessary to do is to fly the glider to
keep the final glide deviation on 0m.
2.4.4.6 Procedure after landing
IGC Regulations require a straight line (base line) in the barogram at the beginning and end of the flight. For this
reason that it is recommended not to switch off the unit OFF immediately after landing, but to wait a few minutes.
About 3 minutes after landing, the following message will appear on the screen:
Let the message time out a new message will appear saying that the SECURITY algorithm is being calculated. Pressing
ENTER before the screen times out will allow the flight to continue until the unit is powered down.
This message will remain for about one minute and during this time the instrument is writing the security information
that validates the .IGC file. When it is finished, it is safe to switch off the instrument. Confirmation that the procedure
is complete can be checked by selecting the Statistics page: if the logbook is shown, then the procedure is finished.
Never switch off the unit while it is CALCULATING SECURITY. If the unit is accidentally switched off
immediately after landing, it will not cause any problem. When switched ON again, the calculating security message
will appear for a minute or so.
