Maintenance
The V3+ display itself is maintenance-free, however it is recommended to perform the following checks, if
problems are suspected and/or general maintenance check-ups are planned:
o Do all LED’s illuminate during the start-up test?
o Does the Mode button function correctly; dirt/dust particles can obstruct its function?
o Is the buzzer opening (display lower edge) free from dirt or adhesive residues?
o Are all 4 levels by volume adjustment (short push, < 0.8 s) audible?
Do not forget the FLARM
TM
mainframe during the same check-up:
o Is the software & fixed-obstacle database up-to-date?
o Are the antennas undamaged and properly installed?
o Are the cables/plugs undamaged and properly installed?
Software Update
The V3+M display is equipped with a boot-loader – this allows updating of integrated display software.
Should FLARM
TM
make changes/additions on current data communication or adjustments to the
operating/indication of different warning levels, the display software can be updated.
Only in exceptional cases is the update of the display consequent to a FLARM
TM
update mandatory. As a
rule FLARM
TM
updates are compatible with current peripheral devices – but can include new functions and
operations.
