Azimuth routing configuration

Azimuth configuration is necessary if you want to select azimuths and distances from the metrometer’s memory. In this case, you must first enter azimuths and distances into the metrometer’s memory. You can do this in two ways:

using the keyboard to create a file with azimuths
Using a computer, prepare a file containing azimuths and distances to the target and upload it to the metrometer using a flash drive.

When you don’t use the metrometer’s memory, and enter azimuths and distances manually, you don’t need to configure anything in the metrometer.

Manual entry of azimuths and distances into the metrometer’s memory

Entering the azimuths, the distance to the target and the number of the grid in which they appear in the roadbook into the metrometer’s memory creates a data file in the metrometer’s memory. During the rally, in order to track you will be able to select from memory a ready-made set: azimuth and distance. There will also be an option to manually enter azimuth parameters.

Press MENU long to bring the tripmeter to the start screen position.
When you see the start screen [ _ _ _ _ ] skip this point.
press OK 6 seconds- on the display in the field A ( 4 characters ) will appear a dash and when it flashes, enter the course ( for example, the course 101.2 will be shown as 1012 )
Enter the value of the course using the buttons:
- [UP] and [DOWN] briefly change the value of the digit,
- OK briefly, which moves the digit to the left and allows you to enter the next digit
- CLR briefly deletes the last digit ( by pressing the menu you can back out of typing completely )
press the OK button long to save the course value and go to enter the distance
on the display in field C ( 6 characters ) will appear a dash and when it flashes, enter the distance ( you enter the distance in 10s of meters. A distance of 2000m will be shown as 200 )
Enter the distance value using the buttons:
- [UP] and [DOWN] briefly change the value of the digit,
- OK briefly, which moves the digit to the left and allows you to enter the next digit,
- CLR briefly deletes the last digit ( by pressing the menu, you can back out of typing completely)
press the OK button long to save the distance value and move on to entering the grid number
on the display in the field B ( 4 characters ) will appear a dash and when it flashes, enter the number of the grid in which there is azimuth driving ( the maximum number can be 999 )
type the grid number using the buttons:
- [UP] and [DOWN] briefly change the value of the digit,
- OK briefly, which moves the digit to the left and allows you to enter the next digit
- CLR briefly deletes the last digit ( by pressing the menu you can back out of typing completely )
press the OK button long to save the grid number
repeat the steps until you write all the points
Press RUN to save the points and proceed to viewing
long press MENU to exit to the start screen

Viewing the memory of points while typing

While entering points by pressing the [RUN] button, you can go to view the entered points in the memory.

press [RUN] while entering points to enter the point overview
Press the UP or DOWN buttons to browse
press RUN to return to typing

Deleting a single point

While entering points by pressing [CLR], you can delete one currently displayed point

press [RUN] while entering points to enter the point overview
Press the UP or DOWN buttons to browse
press CLR to delete the displayed point

Deletion of all points

Press MENU long to bring the metrometer to the start screen position.
When you see the start screen [ _ _ _ _ ] skip this point.
press CLR 6 seconds, and the displays will show CLEAR
press OK button ( azimuths will be erased ) or MENU button to return to the start screen without erasing azimuths

Creating an azimuth file on a PC

Using Notepad, create a file as in the example below:
9=341.1/3659
34=160.9/900
67=100.9/1400
71=99.9/23000
90=359.0/100
134=1.9/2500
999=34.5/905
The example of the first line shows:
- 9 – number of the grid in the roadbook in which the first azimuth is written
- 341.1 – course written in a grid with azimuth
- 3659 – distance in meters written in the grid with azimuth
Name the file rc6.txt and save the file

NOTES. Creating an azimuth file overwrites the file that is in the metrometer’s memory and you lose it irretrievably.

Copying a file to the tripmeter

Press MENU long to bring the metrometer to the start screen position.
When you see the start screen [ _ _ _ _ ] skip this point.
Insert the flash drive into the USB connector of the metrometer. Copying will take place automatically, which will be confirmed by the message File ok.

Azimuth routing in Commute mode

press F to call the AZI function on each screen you will see a single dash in each window. Now you can select or enter the azimuth.
Press UP or DOWN to select an azimuth from the metrometer’s memory, then press OK to track
press OK to select typing
- on the display in the field A ( 4 characters ) will appear a dash and when it flashes, enter the course ( for example, the course 101.2 will be shown as 1012 )
- Enter the value of the course using the buttons:
  - [UP] and [DOWN] briefly change the value of the digit,
  - OK briefly, which moves the digit to the left and allows you to enter the next digit
  - CLR briefly deletes the last digit ( by pressing the menu you can back out of typing completely )
- press the OK button long to save the course value and go to enter the distance
- On the display in the field C ( 6 characters ) will appear a dash and when it flashes enter the distances ( you enter the distance in 10s of meters. A distance of 2000m will be shown as 200 )
  - Enter the distance value using the buttons:
  - [UP] and [DOWN] briefly change the value of the digit,
  - OK briefly, which moves the digit to the left and allows you to enter the next digit
  - CLR briefly deletes the last digit ( by pressing the menu you can back out of typing completely )
  - press OK to trace

Return to metrometer function when waypoint is reached

Press F to return to the metrometer function

Azimuth routing in Azimuth mode
