Default tophat (xcsoar) and LX7007 (pro igc)

I see that Tophat (based on XCsoar) has "LXNAV" as one of the available communication protocols (when defining the "device"). Does that apply to both LXNAV and LX Navigation (separate companies?)

(Reminds me of the Monty Python movie where the splinter groups "Judea Liberation Front" are enemies of the "Front for Liberation of Judea", or such.)

If Tophat (or XCsoar) is connected to an LX7007 via a bi-directional cable, can one define the task in Tophat and then send it to the LX7007? And can one use Tophat to extract the IGC file from the LX7007 after landing? I do both of those with Tophat connected to a PowerFLARM.

You can extract the igc file directly from tophat, I think. It's been a
long time...
