7 Flying with the LX8000
To get the best out of the LX8000 it is important that some preparation is done prior to take-
off. Trying to configure the instrument or set a task while flying is very hazardous especially
in a competition. At the least, it could spoil your whole day! Pre-flight preparation will
ensure that the flight will be both safe and enjoyable.
7.1 On the Ground
7.1.1 Power on Procedure
Press the power-on button. The V5 vario unit will turn on and few seconds later the LX8000
digital unit welcome screen will appear. The first screen shows the version of the boot
loader followed by the version of the Linux kernel operating system, then the version of the
file system. The boot procedure normally takes 30 seconds. When completed the profile
selection dialogue is shown.
It is recommended to switch the unit ON some minutes prior to take-off to give
the GPS receiver time enough to acquire satellites. The flight recorder will also
make a take-off baseline. Longer running on the ground will not reduce flight
recorder capacity.
7.1.2 Profile Selection
Turn the lower-right knob to select the desired profile if more than one profile is available.
For the selected profile the pilot name, glider type, loaded way point files, loaded airports
databases and loaded airspace databases are shown.
To learn more about profiles refer to Chapter 5.1.14. Press the SELECT button to confirm
selection of the profile. The set elevation dialogue will be shown next.
