SETUP after password
After password input
(96990)
further 19 system settings are available. During the flight the password is inactive,
that means after ENTER on password
the LX 7000 jumps directly into the setup menu!
3.1.2.1
TP (Turn point)
All settings about turnpoints can be done in this menu. The LX 7000 is able to store 600 turnpoints.
TP-QUICK POINT NAME
The pilot is able to store his
actual position
during the flight. Such turnpoints are called QUICK TP and are
generally named like AP (actual point). How to store the actual position will be described later. Setting
DATE OFF will store the position like
AP: 12:35.
The numbers shows the time of storing. Setting
DATE ON will store the position under date and time (28121330 for 28 dec. 13:30).
To store the actual position, the START key should be pressed in TP mode.
TP-QUICK POINT - AUTO
SELECT: OFF after stored, the actual position will not be selected automatically
SELECT: ON after stored, the actual position will be selected automatically and ready for navigation
NEAR RADIUS
The setting has nothing to do with the setting described in LOGGER. The LX 7000 has a very useful function
named „Simple task“. This function is inactive when a regular task is started. The instrument will detect being close
to the turnpoint and after reaching of distance smaller than NEAR RADIUS, the turnpoint will be taken like a
confirmed TP of simple task. Simply said, flying from TP to TP (or APT) would build a nice in-flight statistics and
useful flight evaluation on the ground. For more information on this see Fly LX 7000.
