When connected to the Zeus
It is important to note that, when ordering a Zeus system with an Era, the pilot receives a Zeus
version of the Era, which offers the pilot all functions and functionalities of the standalone
Era. The only difference is whether or not the device will power on when power is provided to
the device’s main power lines.
Due to this philosophy, Zeus owners are given much more than just a vario indicator for their
main device. They are provided with a whole separate unit, which operates with the Zeus, but
is perfectly capable of operating on its own. This feature is what differs LX navigation from
other glider avionics manufacturers.
Once the Zeus is shut down, the Era will convert to the standalone version, incorporating all of
the features and settings found in this manual.
The Era registers a Zeus is present over the CAN port and changes are made. These changes
only include hiding some of the settings, which are already made on the Zeus, so as not to
require the pilot to type in the same parameters twice.
The following settings are hidden on the Era, when connected to the Zeus:
• Initial setup - Since initial setup parameters are sent from the Zeus.
• Setup - The following items are being set on the Zeus, and thus hidden on the Era.
