The device is designed for simple pilot operation with two push-buttons and two push/rotary
knobs on the main unit and one push-rotary knob on the indicator unit.
The unit is capable of providing APT (airport), TP (turnpoint), TSK (task) and NRST (nearest

showing bearing to point, track, distance and nal glide as well a large selection of other ight
and navigation parameters. It also shows airspace, airports and turnpoints on the map.
LX
k has built-in high precision digital sensors based on latest MEMS technology for altitude,
vario, speed, -axis gyro and -axis accelerometer sensors. A minimum sampling rate of
Hz is applied to all sensors.
A double-seater installation is possible by installing an LX
the system via CAN bus.
