Default New Butterfly Display Software 3.2

Marc - Butterfly Avionics wrote, On 5/21/2013 11:19 PM:
Hi,

we have released a new software version 3.2 for the PowerFLARM
displays/Butterfly displays that increases font-size by 40% (which is
a lot). Some other minor changes are included as well.

• Better readability, larger fonts • Shows installed PowerFLARM®
licenses • Support for latest FLARM® error codes • Shows next XPDR
target in list view • minor improvements and bugfixes

We have received (negative) feedback from some of you regarding
readability. Although we can not change issues that come from
screen/sunglass polarization we tried to improve the situation with
font-readability and now have way larger fonts that are easier to
read.

Please read this manual if you wish to install the update:

Please find the update files he

Thanks a lot for your feedback and always happy landings Marc The
Butterfly Team


The bigger, bolder font in the previous 3.1 update seems very easy to
read. Does this bigger font in 3.2 reduce the "radar" display size? I
don't want that any smaller.

I'd like the alarm sound made at least twice as loud on the display for
the core. It's not just the vision that degrades as one becomes an older
gliderguider.
