When necessary, the selection keys can be
used to access and read the sequence of
switching times.
Application:
Measurement of (e.g.) fl ight phases with
increased motor speed, if the same switch is
used to actuate fl ight phase switching.
Time2 This timer stores both the "off" and the "on"
periods for the associated switch, i.e. every
switch actuation in either direction will cause a
record to be written for the timer, the timer will
be reset then starts incrementing by "1" again
as time passes.
Each time count can be suspended with the
center
ESC
key of the right touch pad, without
actuating the switch itself. Activating the
switch, in turn, increments the counter by 1 and
restarts the "Time2" timer.
In order to read out the time memory with the
selection keys, the "Time2" timer must fi rst be
suspended by using the
ESC
touch pad.
A simultaneous tap on the
or
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset suspended timers
shown in the basic display.
"Sw. time" column
When you switch between fl ight phases, it is
advisable to use this column to program a switch time
for a "soft" transition INTO (!) the respective phase.
Accordingly, there is also an option for specifying a
different time for the switchover from any phase to,
0:00.0
for example, Phase 3 than for a switchover to Phase
0:00.0
1.

0.0s
However, for reasons of safety, transition into the
autorotation fl ight phase should ALWAYS be set
Normal
to switch without any time delay. The arrow "->"
RX VOLT:4.9V
in the column labeled "Sw.time" at the end of the
0
"Autorot" line indicates that a delay can be set when
transitioning FROM (!) autorotation INTO (!) another
phase.
Use the
selection key of the left or right touch pad
to move the marker frame to the right beyond the
"Sw.time" column.

Following a brief tap on the center
right touch pad, the switchover time value in the fi eld
displayed in inverse video can be changed within a
range of 0 and 9.9 s.

A delay of 5.5 s applies when switching FROM auto-
rotation into any other phase. A delay of 0.0 s always
applies when switching TO auto-rotation.

«normal» will take 3.0 s.
When switching from e.g. Phase 1 to Phase 3, the
switch time is set to 4.0 s.
Such asymmetric transition times can be useful when,
e.g. switching between extremely different fl ight
phases, such as between aerobatics and normal fl ight.
A simultaneous tap on the
right touch pad (CLEAR) will reset the time in the
currently active value fi eld back to 0.1.
Note:
The "switch time" set here applies uniformly to all
settings that are specifi c to fl ight phases, and thus
to all mixers activated in the »Wing mixers« menu,
see page 160. Accordingly, the transition between
fl ight phase-specifi c mixers does not occur abruptly.
If you want individual servos to be switched without
a delay, however, defi ne these accordingly in the
»Non-delayed channels« menu (see page 151).
