Setting/adjusting electrical damping

Difference between setting and adjusting
You can set or adjust the time constant of electrical damping using the buttons. Setting
means that the time constant is automatically set to 0 seconds. Adjusting means that the
time constant is adjusted between 0 and 100 seconds using the steps of 0.1 seconds. This
electrical damping also has an effect on the built-in basic damping of the device.
Condition for "setting"
You are familiar with the correct operation of the transmitter and the associated safety notes.
Setting electrical damping
To set electrical damping to 0 seconds, proceed as follows:
1. Set mode 4.
2. Press the [↑] and [↓] buttons simultaneously.
3. Save with the [M] button.
Result
Electrical damping has been set to 0 seconds.
Condition for "adjusting"
The default setting of steps is an interval of 0.1 seconds. If you press the [↑] or [↓] button for
a longer time, the step is increased.
