The MALTI EX (Rev. 2) is a sophisticated sensor designed for measuring atmospheric pressure. It provides accurate data on altitude, barometric pressure, and temperature. This sensor calculates the height above sea level and the relative height above ground, making it a valuable tool for RC models where precise altitude information is crucial. It also includes features for setting alarms and updating firmware.
Key Features:
- Altitude Measurement: Measures both altitude above sea level and relative height above ground.
- Barometric Pressure Measurement: Provides accurate barometric pressure readings.
- Temperature Measurement: Monitors ambient temperature.
- Real-Time Data Display: Data can be transmitted via the Duplex system and displayed on the LCD screen of JETI models or the DC/DS Tx display.
- Audible Alarms: Alarms for set values can be configured on JETI Duplex transmitter modules and the JETIBox Profi.
- EX Bus Protocol Compatibility: Allows for convenient configuration using the device manager on the DC/DS-16 transmitter.
- Firmware Updates: Can be updated via the JETI USBa adapter.
Technical Data:
- Dimensions: 30 x 16 x 7 mm
- Weight (incl. Cable): 5 g
- Measurement Accuracy (Relative Height): ± 3 m
- Resolution (Altimetry): 0.1 m
- Measuring Range (Pressure): 450 to 1100 hPa
- Temperature Range: -10°C to 85°C

Note:
- The MALTI EX (Rev. 2) does not provide glider variometer functions. For glider-specific altitude measurement and variometer functions, the JETI MVario2 should be used.
Applications:
- RC Aircraft: Useful for monitoring altitude and pressure in gliders, airplanes, and other RC models.
- Telemetry Systems: Integrates with JETI Duplex telemetry systems for real-time data transmission and display.
- Flight Data Analysis: Provides data crucial for analyzing flight performance and ensuring safe operations.
