Default For those who fly the LX90XO

Correct,

LX9000 map screen shows all gliders received by the flarm in their correct location with respect to you. You can colour code the flarm targets based on height so you know which targets are above, below or within a couple of hundred feet of your altitude. These similar altitude targets are potential "threats".

You can also set the 9000 to display a small banner with clock screen on the main screen when warnings or alerts are presented by the flarm.

The V5/V9 vario can also be set to display the flarm clock when warnings or alerts are issued.

The voice module can give audible alerts giving bearing distance and relative altitude for alerts. There are long messages and short messages that can be selected. If you have loaded the flarmnet data, or previously identified the flarm with a contest ID, then the voice module will issue a warning such as "Zulu Zulu two o'clock"
