13.3 Installation of second seat units

The second seat unit shares the same logic as the master LX Zeus. There is no difference in mechanical
installation.

13.3.1 Electrical installation

The second seat unit doesn't need external power as it is powered via the system bus (CAN). For CAN
connection two 8P connectors are provided on both the master and the repeater. The connection of both
units is simple and easy, all that is necessary is to insert CAN marked cable into one of two CAN marked
plugs. The same is valid for first and for second seat. The second seat unit comes with two red wires which
are terminated with a toggle switch. It is recommended that this switch is installed somewhere on the rear
panel, as this will make to possible to switch off the second seat unit during single pilot operation in order
to reduce power consumption.

Older vario units, which operate via 485 bus and that are to be used on the second seat,
should also be connected to the second seat 485 bus:
