Multifunction keypad

With the instrument in Run-mode, the keypad responds to two types of button presses:
Short press: less than 1-second press, used to make selection. For example, repeatedly
pressing the ALTI ft. / QNH hPa / ALTI m. key scrolls the upper line of the lower display
window through these three numerical values. The selected value is indicated by an
indicator arrow along the left side of the numerical value.
Long press: greater than 3-second press, used to set the value of the selected function.
For example, a long press of the ALTI ft. key (when altitude in feet is displayed) will bring
up the ability to set the altimeter in feet.

Operating modes

The device has three operating modes: Run-mode, Set-mode and Configuration-mode.
Run-mode: After switching on the 3040, it goes through its startup sequence and then enters
the Run-mode. In this mode, the altitude, temperature or time and the vertical speed are
continuously displayed. This is the normal flight mode.

Set-mode: Set-mode is entered with a long press of the respective function key. The relevant
display field will flash and can be altered with the !"keys. Short-pressing the arrow key will
increment the value one unit per press, pressing and holding the arrow key will steadily

accelerate. Short-press the corresponding function key to accept the changed value and return

Configuration-mode: Configuration-mode is used to enter correction factors and make
changes to the operation of the 3040 such as changing the automatic power down interval,
calibrating the altimeter, changing the display units, etc. This mode is intended for to be
accessed by qualified technicians only and therefore is not readily accessed by the user.
