2.3.1 On/Start key
A short press on ON/Start key will switch the instrument ON. To switch the instrument off hold ESC/OFF key for a
few seconds and the instrument will be switched off. To switch the instrument off during the flight needs a
confirmation from the pilot, not to be switched off by mistake.
IMPORTANT!
After having a short power brake during flight and the instrument will be off for a few seconds, it will not produce
two flights.
During flight the key is used to start the task, to see more character of airport name and to step one step back if the
edit menu is active (see paragraph APT).
2.3.2 Mode selector ⇔ (rotary switch)
The ⇔ is used to change modes of operation. This switch has the highest priority in the system. Whenever it is
activated a mode changeover will happen.
2.3.3 Up/down selector v(rotary switch)
This rotary switch has lower priority than ⇔ switch and is active all the time in the selected mode. It is mainly used
for selecting sub menus during navigation and to scroll in edit menu.
2.3.4 ENTER key
The main function of that key is confirmation and to start edit procedures.
2.3.5 ESC/OFF key
It is a multifunctional key, which has two main functions.
• After ESC a jump to one menu higher will follow
• By input of letters and numbers (blinking cursor) ESC confirms the whole row (not necessary to press ENTER
few times)
IMPORTANT!
Longer press on ESC/OFF will switch the unit off. During the flight an additional warning will be activated and
switching off will follow after confirmation.
It is not possible to switch the unit off from SETUP.
2.3.6 ZOOM (rotary switch)
This is a multifunctional rotary switch. Its main function is changing the zoom level in graphic mode.
Additionally the zoom switch is used as follows:
• To select turnpoints (only in TP main page)
• After a mistake by edit it is possible to go back rotating this knob (only by blinking cursor)

LX7000 Mar.2002

2.3.7 Event key
After activation the logging of the LX 7000 will be faster for a predefined time (see setup/logger). For LX 7000 IGC
users pressing of event will activate the same procedure in Colibri BB.
2.3.8 MC/Bal key
The key is used for MC and ballast input, after first press the MC input will be offered like a window inserted into
the display. Rotating v will produce changes of the MC.
Second press on MC/Bal key will activate ballast input, use the same procedure like by MC.
2.3.9 GO TO key
The pilot is able to make some modes invisible (setup/hidden modes). After doing that all mentioned modes are
running in background and are not available rotating ⇔. To activate such a hidden mode GO TO key should be
used. After pressing a table of all LX 7000 modes will appear on the screen and the pilot will be able to select (v)
believable mode and activate it after enter.

LX7000 Mar.2002

3 Operation modes
The LX 7000 has 7 modes or main menus. All of them are selected directly by rotating the ⇔ or by GO TO key.
The diagram shows us the menu (mode) structure of LX 7000.
⇐MODE⇒
Navigation menus (APT, TP, TSK) have sub menus, which are selected using v.
GPS GPS status no input
NEAR Near airport no input
APT Navigation and selection of airports
TP Navigation, selection and edit of turnpoints
TSK Navigation, selection and edit of task
STAT Flight statistic and logbook
SETUP is organized in two levels. The first level (no password required) is accessible for everybody. For the second
level, the pilot has to use the password. The password is not a top secret; it is the same for all instruments and
published.
96990
After installation it is necessary to activate the password and adjust the instrument settings and desired units.
3.1 SETUP

3.1.1.1 QNH RES (QNH and safety altitude)
After switching on, the pilot has an opportunity to input actual QNH, taken from meteorological service. Using this
feature it is possible to offset the altitude during the flight. Without input of initial QNH before the flight, this
function is not active.
Procedure:
• Using the v choose the item (QNH, ALT.R. MG.VAR. or BUGS)
• Press ENTER
• Use v and ENTER for input
• Close the procedure with ESC
Some GPS receivers don’t deliver mg. variation. In that case the input of local variation is obligatory, especially if
magnet compass is used for wind calculation, or mg. track is used by navigation. Having a receiver delivering
variation, no input is possible (AUTO message will appear)
ALT.R. allows input of safety altitude by final glide, after input the final glide will go higher than calculated by
computer and the arrival should happen on ALT.R. altitude. The final glide difference indicator will be on zero
during the final glide.
“BUGS” is polar degradation because of “buggy” wings. The input is in glide ratio degradation percentage.
(5%, means glide ratio degradation is 5%)
3.1.1.2 LOGGER
As mentioned before, the flight recorder (logger) of LX 7000 fulfills all IGC commission requirements, but is not
approved that means only using LX 7000 IGC configuration will produce FAI accepted flights. For another
configurations of LX 7000 is necessary to use an approved logger like NMEA source for LX 7000.
After “enter” the LOGGER will follow.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 10
The following data is stored under FLIGHT INFO:
Observer input is not necessary.
LOGTIME is an important setting for sufficient flight recording.
TOTAL MEMORY is the capacity of memory and depends on settings only. This number is not reduced after
some flights are stored. It changes only after new settings have been made in setup. The total memory indicates
how many hours of flight can be flown without loosing the flight data because of overwriting.
B-RECORD: position, GPS altitude, pressure altitude, UTC and GPS status are recorded
Pilot sets record interval, the default value is 12 seconds.
K-RECORD: not active now
NEAR TP INT.: being close to the turnpoint (inside NEAR RAD) the logging runs faster
NEAR TP RAD.: radius that defines NEAR
(I) and (J) (RECORDs are not active)
EVENT
After pressing EVENT key, the logger will run a limited time faster like defined in LOGTIME. Activation of
EVENT is recorded like a special record in the IGC file. Some competition rules require using EVENT before
departure.
Example: after EVENT, 30 additional fixes will be logged in 2-second interval.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 11
Important!
LX 7000 IGC activates event in Colibri BB automatically after activation on LX 7000 unit digital (EVENT key
pressed) happens.
3.1.1.3 INIT
The following parameters can be redefined using this setting.
• VARIO FIL: damping of vario indicator 0,5 up to 5, a normal setting would be 3
• VARIO INT: vario average time, 20 seconds default
• VARIO RNG: vario range
• TAB: audio dead zone by speed command
• AUTO SC: speed command change-over automatic
OFF only with external switch
GPS, after climbing (circling) is detected using GPS, an automatically change over will happen
IAS in 5 km/h steps from 100 up to 160 km/h
• WIND/COMPASS: compass is an optional device which can be connected to the LX 7000 485 bus. The device
delivers magnetic track, using compass an additional wind calculation method can be used. The method needs a
straightaway flight. The time for calculation is set using this menu (normal 15 seconds). Longer time means a
better wind calculation.
3.1.1.4 DISPLAY
The contrast depends on the viewing angle of the pilot. To adjust it use this setting.
To change the contrast rotate v.

LX7000 Mar.2002

3.1.1.5 TRANSFER
To communicate with PC, LX 20 or Colibri use this menu. Data transfer is started after ENTER, for detailed
information see paragraphs further on.
3.1.1.6 PASSWORD
96990
3.1.2 SETUP after password
After password input (96990) further 19 system settings are available. During the flight the password is inactive,
that means after ENTER on password the LX 7000 jumps directly into the setup menu!
3.1.2.1 TP (Turn point)
All settings about turnpoints can be done in this menu. The LX 7000 is able to store 600 turnpoints.
TP-QUICK POINT NAME
The pilot is able to store his actual position during the flight. Such turnpoints are called QUICK TP and are
generally named like AP (actual point). How to store the actual position will be described later. Setting
DATE OFF will store the position like AP: 12:35. The numbers shows the time of storing. Setting
DATE ON will store the position under date and time (28121330 for 28 dec. 13:30).
To store the actual position, the START key should be pressed in TP mode.
TP-QUICK POINT - AUTO
SELECT: OFF after stored, the actual position will not be selected automatically
SELECT: ON after stored, the actual position will be selected automatically and ready for navigation
NEAR RADIUS
The setting has nothing to do with the setting described in LOGGER. The LX 7000 has a very useful function
named „Simple task“. This function is inactive when a regular task is started. The instrument will detect being close
to the turnpoint and after reaching of distance smaller than NEAR RADIUS, the turnpoint will be taken like a
confirmed TP of simple task. Simply said, flying from TP to TP (or APT) would build a nice in-flight statistics and
useful flight evaluation on the ground. For more information on this see Fly LX 7000.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 13
TP-SORT
The LX 7000 is able to sort the turnpoints under alphabet or under distances (some kind of NEAR TP function).
Being sorted under distance the nearest TP will appear, after starting of select procedure.
3.1.2.2 OBS. ZONE (observation zone)
Following confirmation procedures can be defined:
• Start zone
• Turnpoint confirmation procedure
• Finish procedure
• FAI photosector or cylinder templates
START ZONE
All procedures can be defined using two angles and two radiuses (A1, A2, and R1, R2). With HDG the orientation is
described. Angle A21 is by some settings defined automatically (AUTO) and sometimes it is free.
Combination of photo sector and cylinder
TO NEXT PNT: orientation to the next TP (A21 is auto)
R.FROM 1.TP: radius from 1. TP going through start point. The start line is like a circle segment.
Example R.from 1. TP
A21 doesn’t matter, A1 doesn’t matter, R1 circle segment in km, A2 doesn’t matter, R2 brightness of the sector
in km
FIXED VALUE: free programmable through A21

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 14
POINT ZONE
The logic is completely the same with some more choices for heading:
• SYMETRAL : Symetral between two legs
• TO PREV.PNT : To the previous TP
• TO NEXT PNT : To next TP
• TO START PNT: To start always
• FIXED VALUE : Programmable
FINISH ZONE
Only two settings:
• TO LAST LEG
• FIXED VALUE
TEMPLARES
Using templates will always bring back FAI photo sector or 500 m cylinder.
IMPORTANT!
All settings described above can be prepared using Lxe PC program (ZONES) and simple transferred to the
LX7000.
The LX 7000 meets the latest regulations flying a task by competition, for instance Assigned Area Task. For more
information see paragraph 3.2.5 Task.
3.1.2.3 GPS
The pilot is able to set local time for his navigation.
IMPORTANT!
UTC offset has absolutely no influence on time logged in the logger. Logger always uses UTC.
GPS earth datum is set to WGS 84 and not possible to be changed. GPS at switch on shows the Status of GPS
engine (internal or external) after switching on the unit. All necessary settings are done in the factory.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 15
3.1.2.4 UNITS
Practically all known units and combinations can be used in the LX 7000.
• LAT, LON: decimal minutes or seconds
• DIST: km, NM, ml
• SP (speed) km/h, kts, mph
• VARIO: m/s, kts
• HDG: magnetic or true
• WIND: km/h, kts, mph, m/s
• ALTITUDE: m, ft
• QNH: mb, mm, in
• OVERLOAD: kg/m2, lb/ft2
Glider + Pilot + Ballast
OVERLOAD= --------------------------------
Glider + Pilot
Example:
Overload 1.2 means that the take of weight is 20% higher than unballasted.
3.1.2.5 GRAPHIC
The graphic display of the LX 7000 offers valuable information, selected by the user. In order not to overload the
display some care should be taken by enabling of airspace.
SYMBOL
The LX 7000 graphic supports two sizes of glider symbol in graphic. Rotate v to select the symbol.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 16
AIRSPACE
This is a very important setting, which allows the pilot to define under what conditions the airspace will appear on
the display. The instruments are delivered with airspace ENABLE. There are 5 different types of airspace. Each has
different type of line to allow visible separation of different zones. The zones can be present all the time (setting
ON) or closed by setting OFF. Using setting ON for all kinds of airspace will overload the display, so we offer to
use settings, which are connected with zoom. The presence of individual airspace is connected with ZOOM (if not
ON or OFF).
Example!
Using setting for instance 50 km will make the airspace visible only by zoom 50 km and lower. If the zoom is
bigger than 50 km the particular airspace will not be visible.
Factory suggests settings described above.
• CTR. control zone
• R.P,D restricted, prohibited, dangerous
• TRA training zone
• TIZ traffic information zones
• TMA terminal zone
APT
The airports are displayed like symbols with names.
APT ZOOM: 50 km setting will show the airports only having zoom 50 km or lower, if the zoom is bigger than 50
km the airports will disappear completely not to overload the display (available settings ON, OFF, 5,10, 20, 50, 100
km)
APT NAME: The airports are not displayed only with symbols, some letters of the name or ICAO code can be
added. The pilot is able to choose between:
• ICAO will show ICAO code of the airport close to the symbol
• 2char. up to 8 char. will display first letters of the airport
• NONE, without letters, only symbol

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 17
TP
The same logic is taken by displaying of turnpoints.
There are four types of turnpoints and each type has different symbol on the screen.
• T. POINT, simple turnpoint (landing isn't possible)
• AIRPORT, turnpoint with all airport functions
• OUTLAND, turnpoint as an outlanding place
• MARKER, is not a permanent turnipoint, is deleted after the instrument is switched off. It can be used to mark
thermals for instance.
IMPORTANT!
The turnpoints marked landable will appear in the NEAR AIRPORT, displayed with corresponding symbols in front
of the name (airport, outlanding).
3.1.2.6 NMEA
LX 7000 delivers position data in NMEA form to other navigation devices in the cockpit if necessary.
All NMEA sentences are not active in default setting, that means the pilot has to activate them if necessary.
Normally GGA, RMC, and RMB are used. The pilots using Winpilot should activate LXWP_ also.
The data is available like Tx line on 9P sub D connector marked RS 232, see wiring.
3.1.2.7 PC
The speed of data transfer between LX 7000 and other devices (PC, LX 20 or Colibri) can be adjusted in this menu.
It is very important that both devices have the same communication speed.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 18
The new Windows PC program Lxe is able to adapt the communication speed automatically. The old DOS
programs (LXGPS and LXFAI) are not able to do that.
3.1.2.8 DEL TP/TSK
After Y all turnpoints and tasks will be permanently deleted.
3.1.2.9 POLAR
Polars of nearly all gliders are in the library. To select them simply rotate v to the right and the gliders will appear.
The parameters a, b, and c of the glider polar can be calculated very simple by pilot, if the glider polar is not found
in the library. After LXPOLAR program is started and three points of the polar (Apr. 100 km/h, 130 km/h, 150
km/h) are entered, the parameters are calculated automatically. The LXPOLAR is delivered on the CD together with
LXe. There is space for two USER polars (rotate v to the left).
Name „user“ can of course be replaced with the glider’s name.
3.1.2.10 LOAD
Normally the ballast setting is brought to minimum after the LX 7000 has been switched off. Using setting
SWITCH ON LOAD: SET, the load setting will remain the same as the last setting done in the previous flight.

LX7000 Mar.2002
Page 19
3.1.2.11 TE COMP.
The LX 7000 offers two methods of vario TE compensation.
• TE tube
• Electronic TE compensation
TE setting 0% declares compensation using the TE tube
Using the tube the instrument has no influence on compensation; it depends only on quality of the tube.
TE setting >0% = electronic TE compensation
To adjust TE composition minimum one flight in not turbulent atmosphere is necessary. The procedure is as
follows:
• Accelerate up to 160 km/h and keep the speed stable for a few seconds
• Reduce the speed rapidly to 80 km/h
Observe the vario indicator during the maneuver. At the beginning (160 km/h) vario will stay stabile by Apr. –2 m/s.
After speed reduction the vario should move toward zero and should never exceed zero. Indication in + shows that
the compensation is to low, increase % and opposite.
TEF (filter) is delay of compensation and bigger numbers will increase the delay and opposite. The first test
provides using delay 6.
If the static of the glider isn’t correct, there is no way to adjust compensation. Having problems we suggest the
following test of the static inputs:
Connect the tubes for the electronic compensation and set at 0%. Accelerate to 160 km/h and reduce the speed.
Observe the vario indicator. If the needle is moving at first more into minus and after that towards zero, the static of
the glider is not correct and there is no way to provide a successful el. TE compensation.
3.1.2.12 INPUT (Speed command external switch)
The LX 7000 has input for an external speed command switch. Using the external switch it is possible manually to
change over SC/Vario. SC INPUT setting defines what status of the switch will change over to speed command. For
instance ON will change over to speed command immediately after the external switch will be closed and opposite.
An external device called stall warning can be connected to the LX 7000. The indicated speed, to activate the alarm
can be set under STALL W.
The LX 7000 is equipped with an external temperature sensor. Temperature ON will enable temperature
measurement and TEMP. OFF allows adjusting (by user) the temperature precisely.

LX7000 Mar.2002

3.1.2.13 LCD IND. (LCD – vario indicator)
