I have a "canopy latched" switch installed and operating a widget on the engine page, but do not get a voice alert. A warning does show in the Warning area, but it is not RPM aware.

I have searched both the user guide and the installation guide, but can not discover how to set the RPM limit that will give me a "canopy latch warning" based on RPM, as described on page 12-6 of the SV 11 user guide. Where is this done?

I'd also like to do this for my spoilers; i.e., get an alert if they are unlocked and the RPM is greater than 2500-3000. It'd be nice it the voice would announce "Spoiler Alert" instead of "Check canopy latch".

The RPM-dependent canopy latch alert is an undocumented feature, but this thread tells you how to set it up.

There isn't a way to modify the logic for use with other parameters though - the audio and logic is hard-coded to the canopy alert.
