Switching on the Unit
After a short press of the power-on button the LX9000 and vario units will turn on and a
welcome screen will appear. The first screen shows the boot loader screen followed by the
Linux kernel screen and then the file system screen.
The boot procedure normally takes up to 20 seconds but in the case of a firmware update or
system check it can take more time. The final boot screen displays information about the
LX9000 firmware and the IGC serial number. When the boot procedure is completed the
profile selection dialogue is shown. Please refer to Chapter 7.1 for more details about
starting up the LX9000.
