Before leaving the FLIGHT INFO menu, the actual name can be saved into pilot list, if not already present.
LOGTIME is an important parameter as it shows the total memory available for recording the flight.
TOTAL MEMORY is the capacity of memory in hours that can be stored and only depends on the settings. It does
not decrease as flights are stored and will only change after new settings have been made in the setup. If the memory is
full, the oldest flights will be overwritten without warning. The total memory simply indicates how many hours of
flight can be made without loosing any flight data before overwriting occurs.
B-RECORD: This is the main IGC record in which position, GPS altitude, pressure altitude, UTC and GPS status are
stored. The default interval is 12 seconds and it can be changed. As the interval is reduced, the Total Memory will be
seen to decrease.
Note!:
The instrument is cabable of storing up to 30 different pilot's names. Each pilot's name, which can be password
protected, can have different flight information programmed into it. This is useful if one likes to fly with a custom
polar, fly the glider in different configurations, or fly in decentralized competitions, Online-Contest, Barron-Hilton-
Cup, etc. For more information on configuring pilot names see 3.4.1, and for for setting custom polars see 3.1.2.10.
Note!:
If only one pilot flies the glider, then after entering his name, it is not necessary to enter it into the list. In the
above screen 'N' should be selected to do this. The name will then appear automatically on instrument power up
together with all the parameters that have been set. An exception to this is if he flies the glider in two different
configurations; then he should list his name twice, e.g once with a suffix of 15m and again with a suffix of 18m
with different polars in each name.
