6.4 McCREADY (WITH OPTIONAL PITOT TUBE)
If this parameter (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 9 POLA) is set to “OFF”, all
information related to McCready, McCready Equivalent, and Netto Vario are
not displayed on the instrument.
The McCready value is the average lift value of the last “nn” minutes
To adjust the average lift time go to (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 19 MCRA).
6.5 EQUIVALENT cCREADY (WITH OPTIONAL PITOT TUBE)
If this parameter (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 9 POLA) is set to “OFF”, all information related to McCready,
McCready Equivalent, and Netto Vario are not displayed on the instrument.
This value indicates the Equivalent McCready value: this means the McCready value considering the current air
speed as the optimal speed.
The equivalent McCready, based on the glider’s polar, the sink rate and the current anemometric airspeed
(IAS), indicates in real time at with which true McCready value we are flying compared to the optimal speed.
When this value coincides with the one estimated in the thermal, this means that the current airspeed (IAS)
coincides with the optimal speed (see “speed to fly” paragraph).
To set the reaction time of the Equivalent McCready indicator go to (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 20 MCRE).
6.6 NETTO VARIO (WITH OPTIONAL PITOT TUBE)
If this parameter (ADVANCED SETUP \ n. 9 POLA) is set to “OFF”, all information related to McCready,
McCready Equivalent, and Netto Vario are not displayed on the instrument
It is shown thru an analogic scale on the right of the instant variometer that shows the climb or sink rate
within a range +/- 5 m/s. This indicator, during the glide, alternates with the “NETTOVARIO”.
To use this function it is necessary to set the proper polar of your glider.
