Detailed description of Visual and Audible alerts

Battery

When charging your Fly6 Generation 3, the charge indicator LED (top of the ring bezel) will be solid red.

Once the battery is fully charged, this LED will become a solid green.

When your Fly6 Generation 3 battery is low (below 6%), a low battery noise will play:

Power on

The device will make a distinctive power up sound:

This will be immediately followed by up to four beeps to indicate battery level. See the following Battery level indicators section to understand the different battery level tones.

Battery level indicators

Battery level is 75%+

Four beeps indicates your battery is at least 75% full:

Battery level is 50% to 75%

Three beeps indicate battery level of 50-75%:

Battery level is 25% to 50%

Two beeps indicate battery level of 25-50%:

Battery level is under 25%

One beep indicates battery level less than 25%:

HomeSafe mode

When your Fly6 Generation 3 battery is low (below 6%) three long beeps will indicate HomeSafe mode has been activated.

The bezel LEDs will stop, as recording has stopped and, depending on your light settings, you have 30-60min to get home safely. While HomeSafe mode is enabled you will hear this sound every 1 minute:

Power off

The device will make a number of battery indicator beeps (as above) followed by a distinctive power down sound:

This sound is also heard when entering airplane mode and master reset.

Normal recording

Bezel LEDs rotate clockwise at one revolution per second. Recording alert is one short beep:

If enabled, recording alert beep plays once at an interval of 3, 5, or 10 minutes. This can be changed through the CycliqPlus mobile app; once your Fly6 Generation 3 is connected to your handset, go to Device settings > Sound settings.

Incident Protection mode

When triggered, three rapid beeps will sound, indicating that the current and previous video files are locked, and can’t be overwritten by the device. These beeps sound like this:

The Fly6 Generation 3 will then automatically switch off after 30 minutes.

Bluetooth connected

When the Fly6 Generation 3 is connected with Bluetooth to a mobile device the charge indicator LED (top of the ring bezel) will be solid blue.

Bike alarm

With the bike alarm enabled, if your Fly6 Generation 3 is on the move, your device will sound the following alarm:

No SD card/SD card error

If there is no SD card in your Fly6 Generation 3 or there is an error with your SD card, this sound will be played on repeat:

The Bezel LEDs flash on and off steadily once per second. The Fly6 Generation 3 will then automatically switch off after one minute.
