The switching point can be altered at any time with
SET
another tap on the centre key of the right touch
pad.
Note:
Do not, however, set a switching point at a
transmitter control's travel end-point, since
this makes reliable switching impossible. If a
2-way or 3-way switch is used to operate a control
switch, the switch point should be programmed in
advance with one of the transmitter's proportional
controls.
First, assign the corresponding proportional control
in the 2nd column and set the switching point in such
a way that will ensure the subsequent configuration
for the 2-way or 3-way switch will reliably exceed
this value. If you do not, the switching function will
be unreliable, since the control switch triggers only
if a value unambiguously fails to meet or exceeds
the value set! To complete the procedure, cancel the
transmitter control assignment then assign the 2-way
or 3-way switch.
Setting the switching direction
The switching direction of the control switch is
changed as required in the 4th column. Use the 
selection key of the left or right touch pad to move the
marker frame into the column labeled SEL (select).

A simultaneous tap on the  or  keys of the
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset the switch direc-
tion back to "=>".
The current switch position of the control switch is
displayed in the leftmost column by the switch icon
next to the number of the control switch.
Notes:
• In this example control switch "C1" is open
as long as transmitter control "Lever 1" (the
throttle limiter for a helicopter) is less than
+85 % of control travel. It closes once the switching
point is exceeded, i. e. by a value over +85 % and
up to the upper limit.

Change to the value field in the 5th column, the
STO SEL
column above the rightmost switch symbol. In the
simplest case, select one of the switches mounted
in the two switch panels, as described in the section
"Assigning transmitter controls, switches and control
switches" on page 56. The number of this switch, e. g.
"10", appears on the display in the next-to-the last
column at the right, together with a switch icon indi-
cating the switch's current state.
While this switch is open, the "C1" control switch
is active, i. e. it triggers at the switching point; if the
switch is closed, the control switch now remains per-
manently closed as well, independently of the control
position and switching direction:
In the above example with the switching direction
reversed, control switch "C1" remains closed while
the transmitter control is at less than +85 % of full
travel. As soon as the switching point is exceeded,
in this example a value between +85 % and the
upper travel end-point, "C3" will open.
If a control switch – e. g. "C1" – has multiple
assignments, you should bear in mind that the
switching direction set here applies to all C3
switches.
The switch state can also be inverted by reversing
the control in the »Control adjust« menu.
