Default LX9070 Flarm not speaking

Have a LX9070 and a PowerFlarm brick. The PF is turning on can see the red light when new software was loaded and can see a green light when it is on. There are connections from Flarm to the LX9070 they appear solid, but when I go to the setup page on the LX9070, Hardware then Flarm all I see is a baud rate of 19200 and Ext.(PC). The Freq (should be North America, is blank) serial number and Version are blank. I did have another pilot say my Flarm was working as he got a Flarm warning, but I am not sure it was the Flarm or the transponder setting off his Flarm. I receive no data of the LX9070.

Does anyone know if there are other settings that would keep the Flarm from showing on the LX9070. As stated above all the indications are the Flarm is powering on.

Any help would be appreciated.


Kind regards,

Most likely your baud rate specified for the PF port is different than the rate specified in the LX. Put a USB stick in the PF and PF will write the boot sequence into the log on USB. Then open that file in a notepad and see what is your baud rate setting for that port. Enter that baud rate in LX and you should be fine.
