LOG BOOK
This kind of statistics is available
only on ground
. The logbook shows the flights under date, take off and landing.
The logbook will appear apr. 3 minutes after landing and this is the
sign that the flight is
finished.

Statistics after flight
The LX 7000 offers flight statistics and flight analyses. To start the procedure select the flight from logbook and
press ENTER.
The distance will appear only after correct declaration.

Variometer
All analogue signals of LX 7000 (altitude, speed) are derived from high quality pressure sensors, no flask is
necessary. The vario signal is derived from the altitude signal. All signals are temperature compensated. Vario and
speed signals are altitude compensated as wel. A special device based on LCD has been developed for the vario
indicator. Not only vario, but also a lot of additional information is displayed on the unit. The unit is programmable,
that means the pilot is able to preset which information is important for him.
3.3.1
Vario
•
range 5,10 and 2.5 m/s 10,20 and 5 kts
•
six time constants 0,5s to 5s
•
netto vario
lift or sink of air mass only
•
Relative Vario
lift or sink during circling (does not depend on speed)
To compensate the vario there are two ways. The electronic TE compensation based on speed changes with time and
the compensation with TE tube works the mechanical way. Using tube, the LX 7000 has absolutely
no influence on
compensation.
