Comms. Setup
Used to configure the two ports on the back of the S80 for connection to a GPS/Flarm
source and to a PDA
Each port can be configured separately. If your PDA device does not support automatic
switch to DIRECT LINK between GPS and PDA port, here is manual
GPS-PDA link
menu.
When
autobaudrate
is enabled, the LXNAV S80 will automatically search on all speeds to
receive valid data. When the S80 receives a valid NMEA sentence it will lock on that baudrate
and stop searching. In case that communication is lost LXNAV S80 will start again searching
on all baudrates.
Baudrate on PDA must not be lower than the setting on GPS port
To get better performance of LXNAV S80 it is recommended that both baudrates
be set as high as possible.
NMEA output
on PDA port can be enabled or disabled. If you are not using a PDA port, this
setting should be disabled.
Bluetooth is not supported in this version

Battery Chemistry Setup
A new feature within the S80 is the ability to configure your battery chemistry and
battery warnings. Batteries used in gliders today are not just the old style lead acid
battery but also Lithium Iron and Lithium Iron Phosphate. Each battery type has a
different power delivery curve and it is now possible to configure the Low and High
Battery warnings
