or 9). Note that the rotary proportional controls are not
detected until they have moved a few "ratchet clicks", i. e.
they need to be operated for slightly longer. If the travel
is not sufficient for the transmitter to detect it, move the
control in the opposite direction.
If you assign one of the two-position switches, then this
control channel works like an On / Off switch. It is then
possible to switch to and fro between two end-point
values using this simple switch, e. g. motor ON / OFF.
The three-position switches SW 4/5 and 6/7, which you
will find in the "Transmitter control settings" menu as
"CTRL 9" and "CTR 10", provide a centre position in
addition to the two end-points.
Simultaneously pressing the  or  buttons of the
right-hand touch-key (CLEAR) with the switch assign-
ment activated - see illustration above - resets the input
to "free".
Tips:
• When assigning the switches please take care to set
them to the appropriate direction of travel, and en-
sure that all inputs not required are left at or set to
"free", to eliminate the possibility of errors if unused
transmitter controls are operated accidentally.
• You can alter the effective end-points of an assigned
switch by adjusting servo travel as described in the
next section.
The screen now displays either the transmitter control
number or the switch number, followed by a switch sym-
bol which indicates the direction of operation, e. g.:
3 +100% +100%
I5
thr free +100% +100%
gyr ctrl 7 +100% +100%
I8 free +100% +100%
lim ctrl 6 +100% +100%
tr v
Column 3 "-Travel+"
In this column the transmitter control can be adjusted
symmetrically or asymmetrically, i. e. different to either
side. The available range is +/-125% of the normal servo
travel.
Use the arrow buttons  of the left or right-hand
touch-key to select one of the inputs I5, throttle, gyro, I8
or lim.
If you wish to set up symmetrical travel, i. e. the same in
both directions, move the associated transmitter control
(rotary proportional control or switches 4/5 and 6/7) to a
position at which the marking frame encloses both sides
of the travel setting:
I5 3 +100% +100%
thr free +100% +100%
gyr ctrl 7 +100% +100%
I8 free +100% +100%
lim ctrl 6 +100% +100%
tr v
If you wish to set up asymmetrical travel, i. e. different for
both directions, move the associated transmitter control
(rotary proportional control or switch) to a position at
which the marking frame encloses the side of the travel
setting you wish to change:
I5
thr
gyr
I8
lim

Touch the central
to activate the value setting; the value field is now shown
highlighted. Use the arrow buttons of the right-hand
touch-key to alter the values:
I5
thr
gyr
I8
lim
I5
thr
gyr
I8
lim
Touch the central
to conclude the input process.

Negative and positive parameter values are possible;
this enables you to set the appropriate direction of
movement of the transmitter control or its direction of
effect to suit your model.
Simultaneously pressing the arrow buttons  or 
of the right-hand touch-key (CLEAR) resets the altered
parameter in the highlighted input field to +100%.
