Default PowerFLARM bundled display

Found the mount on the Butterfly website last night, and threw
together a new panel layout using a Schleicher Word file. Their newer
files include LX8000, 9000 and FLARM displays. The 9000 display can be
shrunk to impersonate LX Mini Map, which is easier to fit (both panel
and budget).
Might as well put the Trig in now, too. The interconnection for
these things is going to be "interesting". 302, Mini Map, FLARM,
Butterfly, Trig... Expecting to get the message:
"PLEASE CONTACT YOUR NETWORK ADMINISTRATOR" (but this is a glider,
isn't it?)
My old OzFLARM was small enough to sit on the top of the panel, but
not the standard PowerFLARM! Thanks again to Darryl for the cardboard
cutout model on his website.
Allegedly the display orientation can be rotated, although on the
Display Einbaubilder page the LS8 panel would have you believe
otherwise.

The German language manual says the rectangular display can be rotated
in 90 degree steps and the earlier start-up screen shown in the Cirrus
photo shows it powering up properly in the vertical mode.

Not sure wht is going on in the LS6.

I agree on the LX Mini Map being interesting - I played with one
recently that Richard from Craggy Aero had at a seminar.
