Alarm Indicators
Any time a built-in or preconfigured alarm set point is exceeded, you are alerted via both visible and audible (if
connected) alarms.
When an alarm is triggered, the following things occur:
 The measurement’s value and tick color are highlighted red
 The measurement’s value and tick blink
 A red alarm bar appears at the bottom of the screen with a message identifying the out of range measurement
 Below the alarm bar, the alarm menu gives you options for what to do next. See the following subsections for more
information
 If an external light is connected to the FlightDEK-D180 EMS main harness, the light turns on
The alarm menu appears below the red alarm bar. See the Alarm Silencing and Alarm Acknowledgement sections below
for more information on this menu. Note, alarms may be silenced immediately; they may not be acknowledged during
the first half second of the alarm.
In an alarm condition, the FlightDEK-D180 also alerts you audibly, provided the EMS Audio Alert output is connected
to your intercom as described in the FlightDEK-D180 Installation Guide. If no audio device is connected, you will not
