Warnings 

Warnings  can  be  enabled  for  three  different  levels  (low,  important  and urgent),  separately 
A/C  (undirected  warnings  can  be  enabled),  also  a  distance  of  A/C  warning,  where  will  be 
displayed flarm watch. If Alert on A/C mode is disabled, A/C mode distance is not applicable. 
 

 

 

 

Please keep in mind, that bad A/C receiver or false A/C information can be

alerts on A/C mode. 

The  warnings  are  classified  into  three  levels  (See  Flarm  manual  for  details  on
