3.2.1 BATTERY TYPES
The Digifly Archimede is supplied with a none rechargeable 1.5V AA battery.
It also support a 1.2V AA Ni-MH rechargeable battery.
3.2.2 BATTERY LIFE INDICATOR
The battery life is up to 200 hours.
The battery level is continuously monitored by an internal voltmeter that indicates the
remaining battery life.
The battery icon starts to blink when there is less than 20 hours of battery life remaining.
The battery life can be affected by use in extreme conditions such as cold and humidity.
The battery icon only starts at 100% when using a standard alkaline AA 1.5V battery.
3.3 LONG OR NORMAL KEY PRESS
The length of time a key is pressed on your Digifly Archimede influences the functions
available.
For a long key press, you must keep the button pressed down for at least 2 seconds
(green functions).
For a normal key press, you must press the button for less than a second.
When not specified, the key press is to be considered as a normal key press.
3.4 TURNING ON & OFF
To turn on your Digifly Archimede, press the
key at least for 2 seconds.
To turn off your Digifly Archimede, press the
key at least for 2 seconds.
After switching off your Digifly Archimede, you must wait at least 5 seconds before you
can turn it on again. This prevents unwanted operation e.g. during transit in your glider
bag.
After turning your Digifly Archimede on, the first screen briefly shows the vario model,
pilot name (if set), vario serial number, software version, date, time and battery voltage.
