6.2.1.3  Electronic connection 
The LX Remote should be connected to the LX 7007 PRO IGC via a free RS485 BUS port on the back  of the 
digital vario  (9 P female).   If there are no free ports because other devices have been connected, then it is necessary 
to order a RS485 Splitting Unit to split one input into 3 outputs.   When the unit is connected correctly, the LX 
Remote will be detected automatically by the LX 7007 PRO IGC when it is switched on. 
6.2.2  LX 7007 PRO IGC – Remote K- Stick mounted unit 
6.2.2.1  General 
All necessary electronic is built into the top of the stick and only for wires should be provided from the handle tube 
to the interface unit, this solution makes the installation very easy. Additionally two shielded cables are used for 
speed command key and PTT. 
 
Note! 
Don’t forget to initialisate speed command input setting to TASTER (SETUP/INPUT) 
6.2.2.2  LX 7007 PRO IGC Remote K configuration 
There are two units: 
 
•  Leather coated stick with built in electronic 
 
Note! 
The stick is delivered in two diameters, 20mm and 24 mm. LS gliders requests 24mm, all other glider types will 
accept 20mm. 
 
•  Interface printed circuit board to connecting wires coming from the stick to the LX 7007 485 system bus. 
6.2.2.3  Stick handle with keys 
The original stick grip should be removed and replaced with the new one.   On the top of the new grip there are 9 
push buttons. An additional button positioned on the front side is for climb/cruise change over.  Both PTT and 
climb/cruise buttons are wired separate. All remaining buttons are connected to the built in microcontroller and only 
four wires should be connected to the 485 system bus. A very small interface printed circuit board connects four 
wires coming out of the stick to the 485 System bus. 
 
Note! 
After successfully installation, there is no special setting required on LX 7007 side, a very clear message “REMOTE 
DETECTED” during booting routine will inform about presence of this interface.
