LX Era

Document revision: R1
Next we see dots forming a circle, at 18 degree intervals. These dots represent discretized
parts of the thermal. The dots are either red or blue. Red indicates a lifting part of the thermal
and blue a sinking par t. The size of the dot indicates the intensity, larger dots representing
greater vertical speeds, in either direction. A single dot (white when dark theme is used and
white with a black edge when light theme is used) represents the strongest part of the thermal
during your last circle.
To the left of the Thermal assistant, we can see a colour arc, indicating IAS. The current I AS is
framed, and behind it sliding colour arcs can be seen. The colour arc boundaries can be set in
the Glider section.
Figure 29. TA options overview
Pressing the bottom push-rotary knob will open the TA options page. Here, we can choose to
turn on different functions, such as:
• Auto TA - Ticking this option will make the Era turn to TA page when it detects circling
has started. Once the Era detects it is no longer circling, it will revert back to the page you
had before.
• MC color - When MC color scheme is ticked, red dots represent climb which is stronger
than 1.2*MC value set. Yellow dots represent climb in range of 0.8*MC and 1.2*MC value
set. Blue dots represent climb less than 0.8*MC value. If MC setting is less than 0.5m/s,
default color scheme is used.
• Max beep - The device beeps when you are passing through the point at which the maxi-
mum thermal strength was recorded in your last turn.
• Beep offset - Offsets the beep by a set amount of seconds.
