FlarmView and FlarmNet- will they work together?

[Matt Herron Jr.]

I have a FlarmView display connected to my PowerFLARM brick. It seems that the FlarmNet database is now encrypted and the version for use with FlarmView is no longer posted. Does anyone know;

1) if FlarmView will ever again be compatible with FlarmNet?
2) where I can get the last unencrypted rev of the FlarmNet database so I can be kind of up to date.
3) If SeeYou on the Oudie can(or will) use the encrypted database?

Or do I have this all wrong?

Matt, the FlarmNet site has a LXNav download but says "for FlarmView a special converter software is required". It does not tell you where the converter software is available that I can see.

The file Converter is built into the Flarmview with the last update.
See this thread.

Hi Matt,

The FlarmNet files for LXNAV work great in the FlarmView and SeeYou Mobile.
They are available now and work great.

The FlarmView requires that the file first be converted to a .flx file. A
..fln to .flx converter is built into the latest FlarmView software. You
just save the .fln file to the microSD memory card and plug it into the
FlarmView. Then go to the menu and files menu and it will be very
intuitive.

Best Regards,
