4. Fly Mode

This mode is designed for the sports in the air, such as hang-gliding, para-gliding, sky-diving, etc.
The special feature of this mode, Vario, quickly finds up-wind channels (ascending currents). Its
Sub Function and LOG-Book Function is illustrated as follows:
Characteristics of Fly Mode
• Audible beeps in the Main Screen/Sub Functions allow you to ascent or descent without
looking at screen.
• In the Main Screen/Sub Functions, the icon of ascent/descent is always on so that altitude
change is easily noticeable.
• Desirable for sudden and sharp change of altitude.

Main Screen
Current altitude:
Clock Time:
Sub Function (Always displays the Current altitude on the large display)
Temperature:
Stopwatch:
Vario:
Altitude Gain & Loss: Indicates the altitude difference between the start and the current point, on
LOG-Book Function
Highest Trip Altitude: Indicates the highest altitude attained since the start to the current point,
Lowest Trip Altitude: Indicates the lowest altitude ever made since the start to the current point,
Sum of Ascends:
Sum of Descends:
: when ascending at a speed faster than +0.25m/s or +0.82f/s
: when descending at a speed of faster than -0.25m/s or 0.82f/s
: when ascending/descending within the speed of ±0.25m/s or 0.82f/s
Displays the current altitude of the present location on the large display, in
1 meter or 5 foot increments. The icon of ascend or descend always ap-
pears on the display. If there is no change of the altitude, both icons ap-
pear.
Shows the present time on the small display. If the temperature scale is set
as "°C" (celsius), the clock reads as a 24-hour clock; if the scale is set as
"°F" (fahrenheit), the clock becomes 12-hour clock.
Measures the atmospheric temperature every 20 seconds and displays it
on the small display, in 1 degree increment.
Shows the elapsed time from its start to the current point. It is displayed in
units of minutes and seconds up to ten minutes; and in units of hours and
minutes when it exceeds ten minutes. If the AT-110 clock is set as a 24 hour
clock, the stopwatch continues to count up to 24 hours. If the clock-time is
set as a 12-hour clock, the stopwatch continues to count up to 12 hours.
Shows the vertical ascend/descend speed, in the scale of meter or feet per
second, on the small display. The increment is 0.5m/s or 1.6ft/s and it eas-
ily finds the up-wind channels (ascending currents).
the small display. The figure on the display shows the 1/10 value, so the
symbol of "x10" appears.
Note: In the Fly Mode, the icons of ascend/descend signify the different
meaning from other modes; refer to "Alarms" on the previous page.
on the large display. "Ahi" on the small display stands for "Altitude High".
on the large display. "ALo" on the small display stands for "Altitude Low".
Indicates the total of ascents (altitude gain) on the large display. The data
of descents (altitude loss) is not included. The figure on the display shows
the 1/10 value, so the symbol of "x10" appears. "ASC" on the small display
stands for "Ascent Sum Count".
Indicates the total of descents (altitude loss) on the large display. The data
of ascents (altitude gain) is not included. The figure on the display shows
the 1/10 value, so the symbol of "x10" appears. "dSC" on the small display
stands for "Descent Sum Count".
