Once again, I see that Lafayette is advertising the LX5000 in the latest edition of the APA Magazine.
I have inquired before about the sale of this hardware back in January and was told there were some bugs being worked out. I'm waiting for a response from Lafayette to see if the bugs have been worked out.

Has anyone had an opportunity to use the
LX 5000? If so, what do you think about it??

I just got my LX 4000 a year ago and now we're moving into a 5000 series.

I spoke with Chris at Lafayette a few weeks ago and he mentioned an update for the 4000 was coming out, but have not heard or seen anything.

To FED EMPLOYEE:

I received a response from Lafayette today. Yazmin Brokema sent me the technical data on the LX5000, I'll email it to you.

She said that they have made a few shipments already, and that she will prepare a quote for me.

Apparently the components are optional, either "Blue Tooth" or USB. I'll get both just for comparison to see if there is any difference.

Out of curiosity, what is it that's attractive about the LX5000? The only difference I saw last year was that it was wireless. Did they improve any of the sensors?

By the way, if wireless is a plus (and I don't see the benefit - yet), Limestone told me they could do that too if somebody really wanted it. I believe Tyler said it was all "off the shelf" technology, meaning nothing special was required to make it possible with any system.
