Default Flarm error

I thought Powerflarm core could only download flights and upload
declarations via the USB port? Can you now do these via a tablet and
the serial port?

Anyone know what a FLARM error three is. I get this voice message on my Butterfly Vario then the flarm page goes to a large X.


I don't know what that one is, but last weekend I was getting a "FLARM IO" error when trying to download to a USB stick. I tried other sticks, error-checking them, re-formatting them, with no luck. Also tried directly to the Core, vs the USB panel pass-through.

I then re-installed the flarmcfg.txt file, and that fixed the problem (both sticks can download). I also updated the flarmnet data in the Butterfly display.

I'd try redoing your flarmcfg.txt file as a starting point.
