Second Seat Unit; Connecting Vario Indicator And Lx Remote Stick; Secondary Vario Indicator Setup - LX Navigation Zeus User Manual

11 Second seat unit

The second seat device is connected to the master unit via
the CAN bus (it does not matter which connector on LX
Zeus is used). The connection includes power and data
communication for the second seat. This means that the
second seat unit does not need an additional power
supply. An external toggle switch makes it possible to
switch off the unit during single pilot operation.
Otherwise all commands are the same as for the main
unit. GPS inputs on the second seat unit do not work and
so DO NOT connect GPS sources to the sockets on the
second seat (Colibri II, Flarm). Also, the Flarm display
connectors are not used.
All LX Zeus sizes (2.8, 4.3, 5.5 and 7.0) can be used as
second seat units. The first and second seat units can have
different screen sizes.
Flarm, LX Eos, Colibri II, Voice module and Magnetic Compass should be connected to the first seat.
1.1 Connecting Vario Indicator
and LX Remote Stick
The vario indicator (this cannot be a USB D unit) and/or LX
Remote Stick for second seat should be connected to the
485 bus of the second seat device. Both vario indicators
and LX Remote Stick are compatible with existing units
connected to LX 7000/7007. The Remote doesn't require
any setup.

11.2.1 Secondary Vario Indicator setup

The function of the vario indicator connected to the second seat unit should be defined under Setup >
Indicators on second seat LX Zeus. Indicators (upper and lower indicator) on the second seat vario can be
adjusted from the LX Zeus second seat. Automatic SC switching and external switch mode cannot be
adjusted from the second seat unit.
Note!
