  • Page 26: Receiver Binding

    Receiver Binding To establish a connec on with the transmi er, a Graupner HoTT receiver must rst be "bound" to at least one model memory. This process is generally called "binding" and it needs to be repeated each me a new receiver is installed in a model.

  • Page 27: Binding A Model

    1. Move the transmi er and receiver at a moderate distance from each other (30cm or 1 . 2. Switch on the mz-16 HoTT transmi er without switching on the RF or set the RF Transmission to "OFF" in the "RF Set"...
  • Page 28 The transmi er does not automa cally enable each bound receiver as part of the channel count. This must be done manually in the RF Set menu. For example, if RX1 is an 8-channel receiver it will serve only channels 1 to 8 on that receiver.

  • Page 29: Range Test

    Range Test When the range test starts, the output of the transmi er is signi cantly decreased. A prac cal func onal test can therefore be performed at less than 100 m or 300 . A er the end of the range test, the transmi er switches back to full output power and the range test signal tone stops.

  • Page 30: Digital Switches

    Digital Switches The mz-16 HoTT transmi er features 16 digital switches. These can be found in the “Special” menu and can be de ed, ac ted and switched in the submenu “Digital Switch”. In addi on, each of these 16 Digital Switches can be arbitrarily placed as a widget on one of the widget pages and operated from there.

    Switching to level allows the direct connec on of transistors or LEDs to the receiver output via a series resistor. For Graupner receivers GR-12 (#33506), GR-16 (#33508), GR-24 (#33512), GR-32 (#33516) and GR-24 PRO (#33583) as well as GR-16L (#S1021), GR-24L (#S1022) and GR-32L (#S1023) series resistors are already installed and LEDs can be connected directly between the orange servo pulse wire and the brown or black “-”...

  • Page 32: Assigning Digital Switches On Rx

    Assigning Digital Switches on RX You can also assign a digital output switches over the Telemetry connec on directly in the receiver. To avoid malfunc oning when assigning digital switches, only the a ected receiver may be in opera on during their switch assignment. 1.

    Servo Display The Servo View monitor can be called upon at any me by pressing the servo monitor key on the right side of the radio. The view represents the ac e posi ons of any control or switch including mixers.

  • Page 37: Telemetry

    Telemetry The telemetry connec on between the transmi er and receiver takes place via the return channel of the HoTT receiver de ned as the main receiver. If more than one receiver is bound to a model memory, the return channel will be by default the last bound receiver.

  • Page 38: Telemetry Cycle

    Attention This also changes the assignment in the column "T. sel." of the submenu "RF Set". A er comple g the adjustments, it may be necessary to restore the original assignment! Telemetry Cycle In those situa ons where for example two airplane models are about to be operated at close proximity to another controlled by two separate transmi ers you may choose to reduce or eliminate the telemetry back channel of one of the models to avoid poten l interference.
  • Page 39 Note The height of the bar is a measure of the recep on level expressed as logarithmic values with the unit dBm (1mW = 0dBm). 0 dBm corresponds to the two baselines in the above graph. Consequently, the level is poorer the higher the bar and vice versa.
  • Page 40 Se ng & Data View This display visualizes the se gs and menus of the connected receiver. If there is no connec on to a receiver, the submenu can be opened, but the display window remains empty.
