Device overview
The LX Traffic Square is a
collision avoidance flight display
compatible with
all
types of
Flarm devices
. It is commonly used in gliders, ultralights and experimental aircraft. Additional
to providing
audio and visual collision avoidance warnings
and a
Flarm radar display
, the
Traffic Square offers the pilot
two dedicated moving map navigation pages
. These pages
offer simultaneous navigation to a
Turnpoint
and
Airport
.
Using a Flarm device with an
ADS-B module
will offer the pilot ADS-B warnings as well.
It offers the same functionality of the LX Traffic Monitor, but in a more compact square package.
The device features a transflective technology display.

so important in air navigation in our
Whitepaper on transflective technology
The LX Traffic Square’s primary function is to alert the pilot of an on-coming collision with
audio and visual warnings. The secondary function is to show the pilot all Flarm and ADS-B
(if an ADS-B module is installed) objects on the Flarm radar page and the tertiary function is
to act as a simple navigation device.
The device is designed for simple pilot operation with a single 4-way push-button that features
both short and long-press functions.
The unit is capable of providing
APT (airport)
and
TP (turnpoint)
navigation on two dedicated
navigation pages.
Navigation pages feature navboxes, showing bearing to point, track,
distance, ground speed and altitude. It also shows airspace, airports and turnpoints on the
map.
There is a dedicated logbook page, listing all flights with date, take-off and landing times and
flight duration.
