You can use the integrated three dimensional inclinometer to quickly check the gradient:

•

•
Put your PIEPS PRO BT next to the ski pole and read the indicated value. The display
switches back to send mode indication automatically after 20 seconds.
DANGER
Risk of device loss during slope angle measurement
Although the PIEPS PRO BT keeps transmitting while the inclinometer is active, the function
should only be used for training reasons. Never use the inclinometer function in avalanche
terrain!

The Regular SCAN provides a rough overview about the burial situation by indicating the number of victims within

victim and allows selecting a victim. The setting can be changed in the PIEPS APP device manager.
