    - Flarm delivers RS232 signal on its data port. To feed this signal into the Pi, there are presently two alternative ways of doing:
    - RS232-USB-cable
-    - Buy a RS232 to USB converter cable. Preferable one which uses the FTDI chipset (e.g TBD). If you use a different chipset, this may not be supported by default by the Pi operating system.

     - Attach the converter to your Flarm and to one of the USB connectors on the Pi
-   - Serial-In of the Pi
+   - Serial-In of the Pi (depreciated since complicated and possibly unreliable)
     - The Pi features a serial interface (UART) on its GPIO pins.
     - Pi's serial interface works on 3.3V. Hower, Flarm supplies higher signal levels. DO NOT CONNECT THE FLARM DATA LINES DIRECTLY TO THE PI'S GPIO PINS!!!
