6.19 Configuring and Using the Alerter Buzzer/LCD

The optional Alerter Buzzer/LCD provides both audible and visual MicroVector status indication,

and a “smart” Lost Model/Battery Saver Alarm. Several features are programmable.

6.19.1 Configuring the Alerter

To configure the Alerter from the stick menus, navigate to the “Alerter Setup” menu item from

the “Calibration and Sensor Setup” menu. Or, you can configure the Alerter from the “Accessories Setup” tab in

the software.

The programmable settings are described below:

 Alerter LED Brightness – This setting controls the brightness of the LEDs

Max brightness when armed? – For Multirotors, this option lets you select a lower brightness when the

multirotor is not armed, but switch the Alerter LEDs to maximum brightness when armed/flying.

 Alerter Buzzer Volume – This sets the Alerter buzzer volume. Note that the Inactivity/Lost Model

Alarm feature always uses maximum volume.

Max volume when armed? - For Multirotors, this option lets you select a lower volume when the

multirotor is not armed, but switch the Alerter buzzer to maximum volume when armed/flying.

 Mute Buzzer if USB or in menu – This option turns off the Alerter buzzer when the MicroVector is

connected to USB, or is in menu mode

 Sound buzzer on System Errors –This option causes the buzzer to sound for a short period of time when

an error is being displayed in the MicroVector OSD Notification Area. Note that the buzzer will only sound

once when an error is detected, and will be reset after no errors are being displayed. So, if more than one

error is being displayed at the same time, the buzzer will only sound once for both errors.

 Sound buzzer on User Alarms – This option causes the buzzer to sound continuously when a user

programmed OSD alarm (such as low battery, high altitude, etc.) is triggered. The alarm will stop sounding

when the alarm trigger condition is eliminated.

 Inactivity/Lost Alarm after – This option lets you set the number of minutes that the MicroVector must be

idle (no movement of the model and no movement of the radio sticks) until the Alerter will sound the Lost

Model Alarm.
