Operating Timers - GRAUPNER mx-16 HOTT Programming Manual

Operating the timers using the Ch 1 stick or a switch SW 1 ... 9
If, following on from the model programming described
on the preceding pages, you have decided on Examp-
le 4 from the previous page, or you are using the Ch 1
stick (throttle / brake stick) to control motor power - inde-
pendently of this programming example - then you can
use the associated control switch to turn the stopwatch
on and off automatically.
To assign this control switch, move the Ch 1 stick to the
Idle position, then move to the "Timers" line in the ...
"Basic settings" menu
Briefl y touch the central SET button of the right-hand
touch-key to activate the switch assignment, then select
the input fi eld above the switch symbol and move the
throttle / brake stick from its idle position in the direction
of "full throttle". Depending on the direction of move-
ment, the switch "G1l" or "G2l" will appear on the screen
at a particular position of the Ch 1 stick:
motor at C1
C8 delay
tail type
aile/flap
timer 0:00
If you now move the stick back towards idle, you will see
that the switch symbol changes again at around 80% of
stick travel: between the "idle position" and the switch-
ing point the switch symbol is "open", beyond this it is
"closed" (see "Control switches" on page 39).
If you now repeatedly press the central
the left-hand touch-key to return to the transmitter's
basic display, in order to check the system, you will see
that the stopwatch and fl ight timer start running when
you move the stick past the switching point in the direc-
tion of full-throttle, and that the stopwatch alone halts
again when you move the stick back to the idle position.
When the stopwatch is halted, you can stop the fl ight
timer by touching the central
touch-key, and then reset both timers to their starting
value by simultaneously touching the two arrow buttons
of the right-hand touch-key (CLEAR) ... or re-start
them by moving the stick beyond the switching point
again.

Tip:
no
When using an electric motor the motor run is usually
no
limited by the capacity of the battery, and in this case
normal
you would normally set the stopwatch to "count down".
2aile
Simply enter the maximum permitted motor run, e. g.
C2
"5 min.". As described on pages 59 and 67 ... 68, the
transmitter's sounder starts to emit warning tones "30
sec" before "zero".

of the left-hand touch-key (CLEAR) button in the basic
display, so that the stopwatch switches to the "Timer"
function. The timer can now be started and stopped us-
ing the throttle control.
Alternatively, if you control your motor using one of the
switches SW 1 ... 4 or 6/7, as described in Examples 2
or 3, you do not need any of the previously described
control switches. All you need to do is locate the switch
which you use to turn your motor on and off, and assign
the same switch to the "Timers", with the same switching
direction, so that they start running at the same moment
you turn the motor on.
In contrast, if you have decided on the solution de-
scribed in Example 1, then unfortunately there is no al-
ternative but to operate the motor and timers separately.
