Cable kit: PRO

 

 Filser LX160Si variometer connected  to
Volkslogger and Winpilot Pro
Pro connection box
 
 
Pro kit is specially made to connect the Winpilot compatible variometer to PDA-logger-Winpilot Pro combination.

Winpilot Pro software works as Adv but is prepared to get following additional data from the variometer
            - vario data
            - airspeed EAS
            - ballast data
            - bug data
            - MC-data
In addition the position, altitude and airspeed (TAS) are coming with the NMEA data from the logger as normal.

With this data is the software capable to calculate and show all needed to make Winpilot Pro to perfect gliding computer. As good as the old and wellknown Peschges, Zander and Filser flight computers, but with much cheaper.
The clear advantage is the way you can show things in the large graphic PDA display compared to normally rather limited displays used in the flight computers.

The variometer must be compatible with Winpilot to add previous data to the the NMEA GPS sentences sent by the logger through the variometer. The variometer output must be fast and well compensated.
Both LX160Si and B50 has proven to be as good as the old famous ones. The modern microchips and pressure sensor technics has made this possible.

The red button shown in demo unit is to start the PC connection of the Logger. The dataflow control switch ontop overrides the variometer when declaring the task from Winpilot to logger. (Volkslogger or Colibri).

Pro connection kit include "plug and play" cables to connect PDA, Logger and Variometer. The connection box is powering both PDA and the logger through these cables.
