User Manual XC Tracer Maxx Rev 01 23.2.2020
tone=-3.00,280,100,100 means that with a sink rate of -3.0m/s a tone of 280Hz will be emitted.
As soon as the sink rate changes the tone frequency also changes, depending on the configuration.
This creates a nice sink tone (not that a sink tone is ever nice!)
You can create your own tone settings using the tone simulator on www.xctracer.com and then
copy and paste them to the configuration file, or you can simply copy and paste other people's tone
settings to the configuration file.
