Depth readings (holding the trigger) must now be taken with the receiver held at this height.
As noted above, to prevent incorrect readings, HAG must be manually turned on each time the Falcon F5
receiver is powered on.
I use HAG all the time; can I set it to turn on automatically?
No. In the name of safety, HAG must be turned on manually for each use. However, the
feature does remember the last height value used.
