Description
MicroVario is a very sensitive altimeter/variometer that uses components manufactured with the latest MEMS technology to achieve high accuracy while maintaining miniature dimensions. The sensor is able to detect small changes in air pressure and, thanks to this, indicate the rate of climb/descend.
FUNCTIONS
- Miniature dimensions – the sensor can be connected directly to the telemetry port of the receiver
- Power supply from receiver/telemetry bus (3.5-12V)
- Accurate measurement of absolute/relative altitude and rate of climb/descent
- Automatic telemetry detection: Futaba S.BUS2, Graupner HoTT, Multiplex MSB, JETI Duplex EX
- Adjustable warning signals of altitude and vario
- Setting via the transmitter’s telemetry menu (Graupner HOTT)/via the JETIbox emulator (JETI)
- Upgradable firmware
Thanks to its miniature dimensions, MicroVario can be connected (as a servo connector) directly to the telemetry port of the receiver or to another suitable location in the model. It is compatible with telemetry systems Futaba S.BUS2, Graupner HoTT, Multiplex MSB and JETI Duplex EX. When using RC sets Futaba and Multiplex, information about the height and speed of descent/climbing is displayed on fixed sensor addresses. When using Graupner HoTT sets, an extended menu is available, which also allows MicroVario to be set directly on the transmitter With JETI RC sets, MicroVario can be set on the transmitter using the JETIbox emulator.
Setting MicroVario with the JETIBOX
After connecting to the JETIBOX, you can display the current measured values (these parameters are also part of the extended menu for RC sets Graupner HoTT and JETI):
- Relative height
- Vario
- Absolute air pressure
- temperature
And you can set other parameters:
- Menu language (Czech, English, German, French, Italian)
- Variometer sensitivity
- Slightest sinking of the model (To increase the sensitivity of thermal detection, it is possible to automatically read the value of the natural sinking of the model when sliding.)
- Air pressure at sea level
- Rounding the height to whole meters
- Altitude warning signals (JETI and HoTT only)
- Warning signals from Vario (only for JETI and HoTT)
KAVAN MicroVario was developed and produced in the Czech Republic.
