Default LXNav S80 landing gear voice warning not working

Thanks Greg. I'll try the new firmware. I got no warnings on my last flight so hopefully that is the issue. In the case of gear warning, I'm assuming both inputs must be registering "red" in the software for the gear warning sound. For spoiler warning, the spoiler input must be 'red', but gear input 'green'.



You can change the verbiage of the digital input statements depending on how you wire your switches using the S80 menu. The statements must be true Like landing gear down and locked and the actual landing gear switch must be closed and the input display green. Meaning it really is down and locked. Likewise you must make select the correct spoiler statement and have the spoilers in the correct position and that input display green.

I have my reed switches set up so they are closed when the gear handle is down and locked over to the side and the spoiler handle closes its reed switch when the handle goes over the spoiler lock. So my statements are gear down and locked or similar wording, and spoilers locked and and with the handles actually in those locked positions the indications for input 1 and 2 are both green on the S80 and agree with the menu statements. If the handles are not in the locked positions the inputs should be red as they disagree with the menu statements. If they are backwards you can switch the statements via the menu to make them true and agree when green.

I hope that helps clear it up versus making it worse. If you need additional help contact me and we can talk through it. I mat try and do a short video if I get a chance tomorrow .
