Variometer
and altimeter
All signals from the pneumatic sensors (altitude, speed) are derived from high quality digital pressure sensors
which mean that no flask is necessary. The vario signal is derived from the altitude signal. All signals are
temperature and altitude compensated. The variometer can be configured to show:
•
range
5,10 and 2.5 m/s 10,20 and 5 kts
•
five time constants
1s to 5s, in addition there are 4 settings of electronic processing for the vario
signal acquisition
•
netto vario air mass lift and sink
•
relative vario
shows the lift or sink that would be achieved if the glider was circled at
thermaling speed
There are two ways by which the vario units can be corrected for total energy; electronic TE compensation
based on speed changes with time; and pneumatic compensation with a TE probe. When using pneumatic
compensation by use of a TE probe. The quality of the TE compensation depends entirely on the location, size
and dimension of the TE tube. The installation must be leak-proof.
Note!
If electronic TE compensation is selected, then the TE(Pst) port should be connected to a good static pressure
source. If pneumatic compensation is selected, then the TE(Pst) port should be connected to the TE probe.

Smart Vario description
The LX system incorporates two configurable electronic filters in the circuitry. The first filter adjusts the time
constant and is adjustable between 0.5 and 5 seconds. The 0.5 setting is the fastest while the 5 setting provides
maximum damping.
The second filter, called the Smart Vario, is a dynamic filter and controls the rate at which the vario indication
moves. When set to OFF, there is no restriction on the rate of movement of the vario indication other than the
setting of the time constant filter. When set to 1, the vario indication will not move faster than 1 m/s (2 kts) per
second, while when set to 4, the vario indication will not move faster than 4 m/s (8kts) per second. It should be
noted that when set to 4, the vario indication will move four times faster than when set to 1.
Summary:
•
The Smart Vario should not be used in isolation but in conjunction with the setting of the time constant
filter. When the Smart Vario is activated, the time constant filter may need further adjustment to provide
optimum indications.
