Introduction
The LX Eos
is “all
-in one
” standalone speed to fly vario
meter, flight recorder, final glide calculator and simple
navigation system with internal backup battery, audio warnings, vario beeps and voice messages. The unit
has User and Flarm input/output to connect PDA/PNA and Flarm units to the system. It is the smallest vario
system with outline dimensions of 60mm x 60mm with standard 57mm cut-out. It will fit into every glider
panel. It is able to supply PDA/PNA units with 5 V/500 mA and 3.3 V/100 mA output on User output
connector. LX Eos has built in high precision digital sensors based on latest MEMS technology for altitude,
vario, speed and G-force. All sensors are sampled with more than 100Hz sample rate. All real time data is
shown on its indicator. Vario data is shown with mechanical needle via stepper motor. As integral part it has
1.8
” sunshine
readable LCD display to show all user defined data during flight. For accessing all system
options, a rotary switch with a push button is used.
A double seater installation is possible by adding LX Eos Repeater on system CAN bus.
An integral IGC approved flight recorder with ENL level detector will record flight to internal solid state
memory (8GB). All flight can be copied to external SD card after flight.
For backup and safety reason, it has internal battery, which will work for about three hours after main power
supply is disconnected. Integral charger will charge up backup battery when external power supply is
connected (12V).
