# Volume
Increase or decrease system volume
# Silent on ground ON/OFF
Select ON to mute the vario until you are in flight, OFF for always active audio. Default value **ON**
# Square ON/OFF
If OFF the sound is generated by a sine wave, if ON from a square wave
The sine wave is more pleasant to the hearing but the sound is less intense especially at low frequencies. Default value **ON**
# Sound Mixer
Setting the vario tones.
Here it is possible to set the rising or falling tone by means of threshold values. Other values correspond to the cadence at the beginning of scale and end scale values.

>Set the way in which the beep interval changes. If this is set to **on** the beep interval will change proportional with the change in vertical speed. If set to **off** the beep interval will change more at the lower end followed by a smaller change towards the end of the interval.
