Flarm Warning; Tp Navigation Page - LX Navigation Era 57 User Manual

Document Name:
LX Era 57/80 user's manual

4.4 TP navigation page

In order to use this page to its maximum extent, the user should first import turnpoint, and airfield files. For
more information on this subject, please refer to Setup/SD Card/Load TP. If LX Era is used in LX Zeus
configuration, TP database selected under TP/Task/Era list on LX Zeus is automatically transferred (unlimited
number of TP's). TP is displayed as a white dot with a ''W'' written inside (Waypoint). Navigation is always
"track up".

Flarm warning

When a Flarm warning is detected, Era will show a Flarm warning page with
direction to the target provided by the red radar arcs, an above/below indication
on the left of the screen, numerical information for horizontal distance at the top
of the screen and relative altitude at the bottom of the screen.
Flarm warning setting:
- enabled, this page will override any Era menu / page
- disabled, then this page will be seen only on Flarm radar page
On the top of this page the name of the selected turnpoint is written. On the
bottom side of the screen, Final glide (FG), Bearing (BG), Track (TRK) and Distance
(DIST) to the selected point are written.
Below the TP name, a steering symbol will inform the pilot how many degrees (°)
does he needs to correct his track by in order to fly towards the selected
turnpoint.
In the left part of the screen, standard wind information can be read.
The Arrow shows the wind direction relative to the glider, its direction relative to
North; the speed is shown below.
Pressing the enter button whilst on TP page will open a TP settings menu. This
menu can be used for selecting the desired point.
The desired point can be chosen either by scrolling to it, or by using a filter. Three
different filters are available for narrowing down your search: Name, Code and
Distance. After confirming the desired filter, a filtered list will appear.
These options are valid only when used without a Zeus. Otherwise, Zeus'
turnpoint selection should be used.
Selected point is saved after a power reset.
Configuration with LX Joy:
When an LX Joy is connected to an LX Era in standalone configuration, up/down
keys will change zoom settings on TP page and left/right will sweep between
pages. Pushing the centre button will act as Enter.
