POWERFLARM FUSION
INSTALLATION MANUAL
Ensure that no antenna splitters are used for the
FLARM RF. Antenna splitters connecting two antennas
to the same transceiver will result in signals canceling
themselves out or severely degraded range. Use
antenna diversity instead.
Ensure that at least one display has been certified as
FLARM Compatible and normally in the pilots' primary
field of view (see Sections 1.3 and 2.3 for details). A
list of certified displays can be found in Appendix C,
as well as in the
"Primary Displays". If the primary display has not
been certified as FLARM Compatible, it may be used if
the deviations are understood and the resulting risks
are acceptable or mitigated. See Appendix C for
details.
Ensure that the latest display firmware, if applicable,
has been installed.
Ensure that the latest PowerFLARM firmware version
has been installed. See Section 2.7 for details.
Ensure that PowerFLARM Fusion has been correctly
configured. All FLARM devices require a configuration
specific to the aircraft in which it is installed. See the
User and Maintenance Manual for details.
Pay special attention to the 24-bit aircraft address,
aircraft type, and FLARM/ADS-B/SSR ranges and
target processing. Save a copy of the configuration for
documentation purposes and reuse. Verify that the
configuration is accepted by Fusion.
Note: Update the firmware to the latest version
before making configuration changes.
For systems installed or used in aircraft with a Mode-S
transponder or ADS-B Out equipment, ensure that the
correct 24-bit ICAO aircraft address (available from
the local CAA)
transponder/ADS-B
PowerFLARM Fusion.
Ensure that a valid obstacle database is installed
unless one is not required. See the User and
Maintenance Manual for details.
