I have new Axiom Pro 12s. I understand that there is no way to connect an external alarm, but see that Section 5.9 of the Lighthouse 3 instructions state that a Bluetooth speaker can be used to amplify the alarm. I also found a post which said this is not available. Can a Bluetooth speaker be used for that purpose? My pilothouse is large, and unless I am next to the unit, the alarm cannot be heard, creating a safety issue. Thanks.

Hi Berwick

Thank you for your enquiry.

In the current software version Bluetooth can be used for MFD alarms, however, be aware that when setting up the volume of the output for Bluetooth defaults to off, (even if the Icon on the AXIOM shows mid point when first selected), simply highlight the volume control, at this point you can see the volume reverts to low and turn the volume up to the required level.

Thanks!
