Teacher/Pupil - GRAUPNER MC-20 HoTT Programming Manual

Teacher/pupil

Connecting two transmitters for trainer mode with a trainer lead
mc-20
The HoTT transmitter is equipped
standard – as viewed from the front, under the left
front fl ap – with a DSC socket. This is not only usable
for connecting fl ight simulators – as described on
page 22 – but also to integrate the transmitter into a
cable-coupled teacher/pupil system.
To accommodate the settings necessary for this,
scroll with the selection keys on the left or right touch
pad to the »Teacher/pupil« menu option in the
Multifunction menu:
Phase trim Non-delayed chan
Timers (general) Fl. phase timers
Wing mixers Free mixers
MIX active/phase MIX-only channel
Dual mixer Fail-safe adjust
Teacher / pupil Tx. output swap
Non-delayed chan Timers (general)
Fl. phase timers Helicopter mixer
Free mixers MIX active/phase

Swashplate mixer Fail-safe adjust

Briefl y tap the center SET key of the right touch pad
to open this menu option:

Note:
The screen image shown above shows the menu
in its initial state: No transmitter controls have been
released by the pupil ( ) and no switch is assigned
("SW: ---" bottom left in the screen image).
When assigning control functions, the usual
conventions must be observed:
Channel Function
1 Motor throttle/collective pitch
2 Aileron/roll
3 Elevator/pitch-axis
4 Rudder/tail rotor
Teacher-pupil settings
Up to twelve function inputs (see "Term defi nitions"
on page 54) of the teacher transmitter "T" can be
individually or in any combination transferred to the
pupil transmitter "P".
The lower display line, designated with "T", therefore
indicates the function inputs with which control
functions 1 ... 4 (joystick functions for fi xed-wing and
helicopter models) are permanently connected as
well as inputs 5 ... 12, which can be freely assigned
in the »Control adjust« menu.
Note:
Just which controls are assigned to any inputs turned
over to the pupil is basically of no consequence.
However, their assignment in the »Control adjust«
menu is possible only when the trainer mode
connection is inactive.
Use the
pad to select the function inputs 1 through 12 for

To be able to carry out the transfer, you must then
assign a trainer mode switch on the left of the display.
Do this by placing the marker just to the right of
the "P"at the bottom left of the screen display by
using the selection keys of the left or right touch pad
then assign a switch as described in the section
"Assigning transmitter controls, switches and control
switches" on page 56.
Preferably you should utilize one of the two standard
momentary switches on the switchboard to allow
a return of control to the teacher transmitter at any
time.

Since at this early stage of programming a trainer
system it is unlikely that an operational pupil
transmitter is connected to the teacher transmitter,
the transmitter responds immediately to the switches
closed during the switch assignment process with
appropriate visual and audible warning notices. You
should therefore re-open the switch you have just
assigned:
