LXNAV S8x/S10x at a Glance
The LXNAV S8x/S10X is a standalone digital variometer, final glide calculator and navigation
system with a simple moving map. The LXNAV S8x/S10x has both GPS/FLARM and PDA/PNA
input/output. The unit has standard dimensions that will fit into a glider panel with an
opening of 80 mm diameter (3.15”) or 57 mm diameter. It is also able to supply a PDA/PNA
with power (5VDC/1A). The unit has an integrated high precision digital pressure sensor and
inertial system. The sensors are sampled more than 100 times per second. Real Time Data
is displayed via a vario needle, an airspace map and up to 4 variable numeric fields displayed
on a QVGA 320x240 pixel, 3.5-inch (S80/S100) or 2.5-inch (S8/S10), high brightness (1200
nits) colour display. To adjust values and settings the LXNAV S8x/S10x has two rotary push
button knobs and three additional push buttons.
The LXNAV S8x/S10x can be expanded with one or more repeaters (LXNAV S8x/S10x) via
the CAN bus. This allows both pilots in a two-seat glider to have independent control of all
functions of each unit in the front or the rear seat.
The S10x unit includes a built-in IGC-approved flight recorder, a Bluetooth module
and its own backup battery which provides from 3 to 4.5 hours of independent
operation.
The S10x is also capable of running
HAWK
system, which provides pilot a real time
three dimensional wind. You can learn more about
HAWK
in chapter 7.
