Getting started
The unit is ready to operate after successful installation and is powered on by master switch.The unit doesn’t use
internal memory to store program files; all program files are stored on SD cards.
Note!
Eventually delivered programs are
not licensed
, so the owner is obliged to arrange licensing by his own.
The
auto run
function makes possible that the navigation program will start automatically after power on; under
condition that SD card is present during booting. This reduces customer manipulation to a minimum.
2.1
GPS connection
GPS data in form of NMEA should be applied to
6P telephone
type connector of junction box. GGA and RMC data
sentences are required as a minimum. See further captures for details. The pin organization of the connector
corresponds to IGC standard. That means that any approved flight recorder can be connected plug and play to the
Junction box, after using of a cable delivered with LX Mini Map. The cable specification is so called
1:1
and that
means no twisted wires. An open wire cable variant is also delivery included.
Power
for the flight recorder is also available via 6P telephone type connector.
Note!
GPS source baud rate
doesn’t matter
as the build in microcontroller searches on different baud rates for GPS signal
after each power on. Even after a GPS source change during flight the unit will adapt to new baud rate after
approximately 30 seconds.
The navigation program baud rate should always be set to
com 2
and
38400 bps
. In some special cases
com 1
is also
used, but this needs a special not standard wiring.
GPS connection is
two wire
connection, that means
Tx and also Rx
from GPS source are provided to the LX Mini
Map and this makes possible communication with Flight recorder. For instance downloading of flights or uploading
of turn points and declaration.
GPS at any baud rate and
power via 1:1 cable
