Brauniger - Летный прибор IQ SONIC
 IQ SONIC - новый минивариометр от BRAUNIGER. Он предлагает оптимизированную акустику подъема и снижения и работает без оптической индикации высоты или варио. IQ SonicIQ SONIC - идеальный резервный прибор для пилотов, летающих cross country и принимающих участие в соревнованиях. Он также прекрасно подходит для парящего полета, например на дюнах, где высотная информация не особо интересна. Парапланеристы, летающие в тандеме часто имеют проблемы с прикреплением своих "больших" вариометров, с компактным и легким IQ SONIC эта проблема решается раз и навсегда. Пилоты, которые не хотят заботиться о технике в любом ее виде, найдут для себя IQ SONIC прекрасным прибором для полетов. Несмотря на свои маленькие размеры (89 мм x 37 мм x 19 мм, 40 граммов), IQ SONIC - полнокачественный прибор от BRAUNIGER. В нем использованы те же высококачественные передатчики давления и электронные части как и в "больших" приборах IQ Серий. Новый минивариометр от BRAUNIGER крепится застёжкой на липучке, например на шлеме, на ремне безопасности или где угодно еще... возможности не ограничены. Громкость звука и точка начала понижения тона могут быть настроены индивидуально. Минивариометр питается от стандартной литиевой батареи (ее можно легко купить в многих фотомагазинах и магазинах электроники), которая может работать в течение приблизительно 200 часов полета. Это означает, что средний пилот должен менять батарею приблизительно только раз в 6 лет. Реальная особенность прибора - ASI (Acoustic Scale Indication). Тембр звука подъема изменениется в зависимости от скорости набора высоты приблизительно с каждыми 1,3 мс (260 футов/мин), это помогает пилоту оценивать скорость набора высоты. Функции: * Технология и качество BRAUNIGER, точно такие же как и у "больших" IQ приборов * Acoustic Scale Indication (ASI) * Регулируемая точка начала понижения тона * Настраиваемая громкость * Работает более 200 часов от одной батареи * Безвредная для окружающей среды литиевая батарея * Компактные размеры (89 мм x 37 мм x 19 мм) * Весит всего 40 граммов
BRÄUNIGER Flugelectronic The IQ Sonic is an "audio only” vario. It has been especially designed for pilots who want to enjoy free flight with the minimum of technology, and also as a reliable back-up instrument for cross country and competition flying. It is also great for coastal soaring, where an altitude indication is of little importance. (2) Acoustic Scale Indication Although the IQ Sonic has no optical indication of climb rate, the critical point between 1 m/s and 1,5 m/s (200 ft/min and 300 ft/min) is indicated acoustically. Often it is not worth circling in a thermal at less than this climb rate (unless the conditions are really weak). This is why the timbre of the climb tone changes ( this is the "Acoustic Scale Indication”) when a climb of 1,3 m/s (260 ft/min) is exceeded. This is in addition to the normal acoustic information which indicates your climb rate in the thermal and helps to make the correct decisions. (3) Power Supply The IQ Sonic is powered by a standard lithium battery of the kind used in cameras. This battery can be purchased in many photo or electronics shops. The battery capacity is approx. 200 hours of flying. A big advantage of lithium batteries is that they loose almost none of their performance in very cold conditions. Lithium Battery CR2450 (3V, 500mAh) The case must be opened to change the battery. Unscrew the two screws then pull off the front part of the case and carefully lift out the board. Pull the old battery from the clamp and insert the new one. Make sure the polarity is correct! The plus (+ on battery) must touch the clamp arm, the negative must touch the metal ring ("neg”). (4) Mounting The IQ Sonic is mounted with Velcro. Stick the hook side of the self adhesive Velcro strip to the flat side of the case. You may have to trim the Velcro a little to make it fit. Stick the loop side of the Velcro wherever you want your vario to be, e.g. to your helmet. Special holes in the board and case allow the sound to be reflected to all sides. Choose a place on your helmet close to your ear so you can hear the sound of the vario easily. Because of the small dimensions and the low weight of the IQ Sonic it is possible to mount the vario in many other positions, e.g. to your flying suit, or the shoulder straps of your harness, for instance Experiment to find the optimal mounting position! (5) Switch Positions The IQ Sonic is switched on with the main switch. This switch also turns on or off the sink tone of your vario. Switch pos: - I- Instrument ON, sink tone OFF Switch pos: - 0 - Instrument OFF Switch pos: - II - Instrument ON, sink tone ON (6) Adjustment of Volume You can adjust the volume of the IQ Sonic to adapt the sound to suit individual perception and positioning. To adjust the volume the case of the IQ Sonic must be opened. The volume can then be adjusted with a small screwdriver by carefully turning the potentiometer (see picture). The potentiometer is located on the board and designated "Vol”. Turning clockwise: Volume UP Turning counter clockwise: Volume DOWN Warning! Never turn the potentiometer with no designation (see picture). If this potentiometer is altered then the calibration of the IQ Sonic will be changed which will make the instrument inoperable. It must then be re-calibrated at the factory for which there will be a charge!  (7) Adjustment of Sink Tone You can adjust the point (sink rate) when the sink tone will start to sound. Open the case and carefully turn the small potentiometer on the board designated "Sink”. The sink tone start point can be adjusted within a range of – 0,1 m/s to – 5,0 m/s (- 20 ft/min to –1000 ft/min) Turn clockwise: sink tone starts at higher sink rate Turn counter clockwise: sink tone starts at less sink rate Warning! Never turn the potentiometer with no designation (see picture). If this potentiometer is altered the calibration of the IQ Sonic will be changed which will make the instrument inoperable. It must be recalibrated at the factor for which there will be a charge!  (8) Maintenance and Service The IQ Sonic is totally maintenance free except for occasionally having to change the battery. If there is any sort of malfunction, send the instrument to BRÄUNIGER or to the distributor of your country for repair. Distributor addresses can be obtained from the web site at www.brauniger.com. Landing in water: If the instrument gets wet e.g. because of a landing in water landing, immediately switch it off, open the case and let it dry in moderate heat (max. 35 °C or 95 °F), e.g. in the sun. The instrument should not stay wet or moist under any circumstances as this will destroy the instrument beyond repair! If it gets into contact with salt water, immediately switch instrument off, open case and flush it out with lots of fresh water. Then let dry as described above. Important: The instrument must be sent to BRÄUNIGER for checking/repair after every water landing! (9) Warranty BRÄUNIGER instruments are guaranteed for 12 months for materials and workmanship. Abuse (e.g. strong impact) or normal wear are excluded from warranty. Special warranty regulations may apply in your country. © BRÄUNIGER GmbH 2009 Version 1.0, March 2009 | |
