David,
5.7.2 Creating Task
Make sure that at least one way point file is loaded into the LX9000
and that it is checked
and marked as an active way point file. Refer to chapter 5.1.5.1 for
details on how to
upload way point files to the LX9000.
Select task time and press the EDIT button. Enter the task time if
required. Rotate the
lower-right knob to increase time in 15 minute steps and the lower-
left knob to increase task
time in 1 minute steps. Close the task time edit and rotate the lower-
right knob to select the
first empty point.
Press the EDIT button and input a turn point name. Entering a point
name is very straightforward.
Enter the first letter of the task point name using the lower-right
knob. The
“Helper” will show the first way point that matches this letter.
Press Press the CHAR button and the cursor will move to the second
letter. Use the lowerright
knob to select the second letter. If you want to return to first
letter turn the lower-left
knob anticlockwise.
Repeat this procedure until your desired point is selected. Press the
SELECT button to
complete this selection. If you do not know exact name of a point just
select the first letter
and press the SELECT button. Now scroll to the desired point using the
lower-right knob.
Press the SELECT button once more to complete this selection.
The task edit dialogue should now like the screen below. The letter
“S” indicates you
entered the start point.
Move Move the cursor down to the next empty point and repeat the above
procedure until the
entire task is entered.
This is from the Manual and is very straight forward.
Videos are nice but I recommend that anyone using a complicated flight
instrument spend some time with the instrument on your desk with the
manual on the PC.
