8.3 In-flight warnings
Whileit is in flightthe eBee can generatetwo types of errors: warningsand failures.
In-flight warnings occur when there is an event that requires user attention but
does not compromise the drone’s ability to continue flying.
When an In-flight warning is activated the warning will appear in yellow in eMo-
tion and cause the ‘WARNING’ button in the Control Bar to change to ‘ACK WARN-
ING’, turn yellow and activate. The drone will then perform a Security action de-
pending on the active In-flight warning. Some In-flight warnings simply need to
be acknowledged by clicking on the ‘ACK WARNING’ button. Others require ac-
tion by the user before the warning is cleared and the drone can return to full
functionality. The full list of possible In-flight warnings and required User actions
can be found in table 5 on the next page.
The In-flight warnings marked with a
∗
can have their Security actions disabled,
whereas the In-flight warnings marked with a
∗∗
can have both the warning and
the Security action disabled. See section ‘Flight Parameters tab’ on page 116 for
instructions on disabling warnings and Security actions.
Caution: The Security action for most In-flight warnings is to fly back
to the Home waypoint (if Circular landing is selected) or the Home
waypoint(if Linear landing isselected). As soon as this Security action
is triggered the drone will fly in the direction of the selected landing
waypoint while climbing or descending to the waypoint’s altitude.
It is thus important to ensure that there are no obstacles above the
altitude of the selected landing waypoint within the entire flight area
to prevent a collision resulting from this Security action.
