4.3 Flarm radar page

To access Flarm radar options, press enter on this page.
Configuration with LX Joy:
When LX Joy is connected to LX Era standalone configuration, up/down keys will change zoom settings on
Flarm radar page. Pushing the centre button on the LX Joy opens a new page, used for setting Zoom level
and selecting a Flarm object. Please note that volume can't be set on this page.
The graphic display is divided into 2 or 3 circles (depends on zoom setting). The
outer circle represents zoom distance. The blue glider symbol is always
positioned in the middle of the screen
Near gliders are displayed as yellow. All gliders located in radio range will be
shown simultaneously on the display.
ADSB objects that have been detected will be shown as green triangles with the
triangle, pointing in the direction the object is tracking.
Non-directional objects are represented as red circles about the centre of the
screen. The size of the circle represents the relative distance to that target. No
bearing to the target is provided.
Current zoom is displayed in the top part of the largest circle. Relative altitude
and current vario of a selected Flarm object is shown in yellow, next to the object
itself.
The graphic display orientation is always track up. To improve orientation, N, E, W
and S are added to the display.
Note!
Gliders presented as a dot on the screen, are gliders where pilots have
intentionally activated the PRIVACY mode on their Flarm unit. Gliders in privacy
mode send limited data strings and can't be visualized completely. However, all
warnings will appear regardless of privacy mode.
