Page 3: General Information
The GENERAL® Mini Airflow is fitted with an impeller and with sensors which allow it to carry out measurements in the open air. It will give you all the information essential for your open air activities such as hang-gliding, rambling, climbing or water sports. It will give you the instant wind speed and the maximum wind speed (DAF3010, 3300, 4000), ambient temperature and wind chill temperature (3010, 3300, 4000), an electronic compass (DAF3300, 4000) as well as altitude, pressure, and trends in the weather (DAF4000). -

DAF3010, DAF3300, DAF4000 III. Switching on To switch on your GENERAL® Mini Airflow, all that you need to is press briefly on the button(represented by on the diagram below). The instrument switches on and displays the software version and the instrument model (see fig. D0.0 on the diagram below), after which the instrument moves into the mode for measuring the current wind speed or to the last mode displayed before the instrument was switched off. - Page 5 Switching off automatically (Auto-off): ® Your GENERAL Mini Airflow goes off automatically 1 minute after the button was last pressed or after the wind was last measured. This means that it does not stop while the impeller is still turning (more than 10 seconds).
- Page 6 DAF3010, DAF3300, DAF4000 1. Backlight To get the backlight to light up keep the button pressed for 1 second and as soon as the backlight lights up, release the button. The backlight remains illuminated for 3 seconds. If within the 5 seconds which follow you re-illuminate the backlight, it stays lit up for 15 seconds. Beyond these 5 seconds, it lights up again for 3 seconds.

Mode for measuring the instant wind speed with maximum Choice of unit of measurement : By keeping the button pressed for approximately 4 seconds, the units start to go past. You can choose between the following units : km/h (kilometres per hour), mph (miles per hour), knots, m/s (metres per second), and fps (feet per second).
- Page 8 DAF3010, DAF3300, DAF4000 4. Mode for measuring the instant wind speed with ambient temperature Choice of unit of measurement : By keeping the button pressed down for at least 2 seconds the 2 units start to go past. You have the possibility to choose between : °C (degrees Celsius) and °F (degrees Fahrenheit) When the unit of your choice appears, release the button and the unit of measurement is thereby selected.
- Page 9 DAF3010, DAF3300, DAF4000 5. Mode for measuring the current wind speed with the wind chill temperature Low temperatures present a danger to the human body and this danger is aggravated by the speed of the wind. The Mini Airflow meters show immediately the temperature felt by the body and warns of risks of frostbite and WHICH MEANS : The wind chill factor is calculated on the basis of ambient temperature and wind speed.
- Page 11 DAF4000 7. Mode for measuring instant wind speed with current altitude IMPORTANT ! This instrument calculates altitude by using air pressure. It is therefore quite normal for the altitude to change when the air pressure changes. For this reason the instrument needs to be calibrated as often as possible.
- Page 12 DAF4000 8. Mode for measuring the wind speed with display of relative and absolute pressure WHICH MEANS : The instrument offers 2 modes for displaying pressure: QFE pressure and QNH pressure. These two abbreviations (QFE and QNH) are taken from the famous “Q” code. This code was instituted by the London conference of 1912. It is made up of a list of three letter indicators, valid for all the countries of the world.
- Page 13 Comments: If QNH figure is steady (is not flashing) this indicates the current relative pressure (QNH), credible because deduced from a meteorologically slow variation. The QNH sign flashes if this pressure has changed since the last cal bration. If the QNH figure is flashing, it indicates the QNH pressure entered at the last calibration. 10.
