The changes are applied immediately.
Configuration from a computer (USB)
The Solar can also be configured by connecting it to a computer via a USB-C cable.

Available settings
Syride Link allows you to configure the following parameters:
Sound volume
Allows you to adjust the variometer sound level. This setting can also be modified directly using the Solar button.
Variometer thresholds
Allows you to adjust the sound trigger thresholds:
climb threshold,
descent threshold.
These settings allow you to adapt the variometer sensitivity to your preferences.
Zeroing function
Allows you to enable or disable the zeroing function. When enabled, the Solar emits a specific audible signal when the air mass is close to neutral, which can help identify areas favorable for lift. This function is disabled by default.
Auto power off
Allows you to configure the automatic shutdown of the instrument after a period of inactivity. This parameter helps optimize battery life.
Recommendations
It is recommended to use Syride Link to adjust the Solar settings according to your preferences and your type of flying. Once configured, the Solar operates autonomously with the defined settings.
