Version 1.2
  • Added automatic save feature for Aircraft Type, Range, Altitude, and Screen Style settings. These settings will be retained even if the unit is powered down.
  • Changed and enlarged display fonts for better clarity and readability of traffic
  • Added option to select Ground Mode or Flight Mode in Warning Screen following startup. If the unit is in Ground Mode, aircraft below you and up to 200 feet above you are ignored. This is useful when on the ground and you wish to ignore the aircraft taxiing around you in favor of detecting aircraft in the pattern or on final approach. In Flight Mode, the unit will detect aircraft both above and below you. The unit will automatically switch from Ground Mode to Flight Mode once 200 feet of climb is detected from the time you turned the unit on. Please note: if you restart the unit in Ground Mode while in the air, the unit will not detect aircraft below and up to 200 feet above you until you climb 200 feet to put the unit in Flight Mode. If this happens, restart the unit in Flight Mode by turning the unit off, then on, then pressing the up arrow instead of the menu button at the warning screen.
  • Added “test” message feature when audio volume is changed up or down. To test the audio output, both the voice output to your headset and the in-cabin beep alert can be heard whenever the up arrow or down arrow are pressed (at the traffic screen). This is a helpful aid to determine the proper audio volume for your environment.
  • Improved bearing algorithms in 45 to 90 degree sectors in each quadrant
  • Adjusted range values in 2.0 to 6.0 NM fields
  • Fixed erroneous “500 FT1” in ALTITUDE menu
  • Adjusted profile tracking in reduced-range historical track
  • Revised adaptive filtering to allow faster lock time on traffic in reduced radar coverage
  • Corrected audio issue where maximum volume overloads system
