Introduction Introduction The Flytec Balloon TT34 is a wireless temperature measurement device specifically developed for the needs of modern hot-air ballooning. It works in conjunction with any Flytec Balloon variometers and transmits the measured envelope temperature to those devices. TheTT34 is designed to use a very low amount of electric power during regular operation. An automatic activation and deactivation ensure that the transmission occurs only when the balloon is being operated.
Batteries 2 Batteries The Flytec Balloon TT34 uses one regular 9V Alkaline battery. In new devices, the battery is already installed. The use of rechargeable batteries is not recommended, since the lower capacity of rechargeables diminishes the operation autonomy of the TT34 considerably. TheTT34 is designed to use a very low amount of electric power during regular operation.

Pairing Pairing For any Flytec Balloon variometer to receive data from a TT34, the two need to be paired. This is done by entering the TT34’s serial number, as marked on the label, into the appropriate field of the variometer. Refer to the variometer’s manual to see how to pair a TT34 with that model. Prerequisites This is required to receive temperature data on the Flytec Balloon 4: 1. A TT34 is installed in your balloon 2. TT34 reception is activated on your Flytec Balloon 4 3.
Operation Operation Automatic activation The Flytec Balloon TT34 automatically starts transmitting data once the temperature at its measurement tip is at least 20°C (36°F) higher than the temperature at the TT34's casing. For testing, we recommend placing the measurement tip in hot water. Automatic deactivation The Flytec Balloon TT34 automatically stops transmitting data about five minutes after the temperature at its measurement drops to less than 20°C (36°F) above the temperature at the TT34's casing.
