LX9070 touch screen fron and rear in two seater

[John Ferguson]

Hi,

I have an ASG29 with a profile that I have worked up over a few years, it suits me well. Recently I have bought into an Arcus with 9070 front and rear. I have taken my ASG29 profile and loaded it into the front and rear units in the Arcus but it doesn't transfer all functions.

Simplest problem is that the cruise climb switch in the front doesn't change the audio from cruise to climb, stays in cruise all the time, but when the rear seat switches from cruise to climb it behaves properly.

It seems to have taken the cruise deadband and applied it to the climb vario audio output.

I found out all of this while flying today and didn't want to spend time in the cockpit with head down pressing buttons, etc.

I'm going to run it through styler and make sure I have options set as I like them. As I've never had a two seat installation before is there something I need to do to the profiles to make them compliant with a two unit install or have I just got something confused.

Any advice welcomed.

I have a Duo and for the most part you can treat these as two completely independent 9070’s. There are a few points that can cross over, but I set them up as independent as possible.  Changing the airport or wpt on one doesn’t impact the other.  You can use the “Send” feature to send the waypoint to the other device.  I also keep MC values separate so that someone playing in the back seat doesn’t throw off your settings up front. 

I know that there are a bunch of settings that don’t exactly export well from the Styler.  I think that maybe if you export the profile from one 9070, you can import it to another and get some of the finer grained settings like what the speed command button or function button does.  I’m blanking on the Ui at the moment, but I’m pretty sure there is an export that creates a compressed file with more than just the basic profile and screens. 

The great and terrible thing about the LX equipment is the config ability.  Too many choices most of the time.

I've made a guess that my single seater profile with a single lx stick may not have transferred terribly well to a dual seat lx9070 with dual sticks. I'm thinking there may be references to hardware addresses embedded in the asg29 profile.

I have gone through the profile on the lx, re-registered the sticks and it seems to work on the ground ... will test out next flying day.
