Telemetry - GRAUPNER MC-20 HoTT Programming Manual

Telemetry

Read-in and settings for telemetry data
The receiver's settings, as well as optional telemetry
sensor settings, can be called up and programmed
in real-time by way of the »Telemetry« menu.
Communication with the transmitter is accomplished
over the return channel built into the HoTT receiver.
As many as four sensors can be attached, if
necessary via V or Y adapter cables, to receivers
with current fi rmware of types: GR-12S HoTT
(order no. 33505), GR-12 HoTT (order no. 33506),
GR-16 (order no. 33508), GR-24 HoTT (order
no. 33512) and GR-32 DUAL (order no. 33516).
The update capability of these and future receivers,
which can be performed by the user, will keep the
respective »Telemetry« menu up to date with the
latest version and ensure enhancement with future
functions or languages.

Important notices:
• This manual is based on the functions available at
the time of printing.
• As already indicated in the section "Binding
multiple receivers" on page 77 and 85, multiple
receivers per model can be bound into the system
as necessary. However, only the receiver
selected in the line "TELEMETRY RCV" of
the "Telemetry" menu is able to establish
a telemetry connection to the transmitter!
However, that also means the inverse, that only this
receiver can be addressed through the Telemetry
menu! If necessary, therefore, the selection must
be changed before settings can be made on a
specifi c receiver:

• When adjusting the settings of the remote
control, make absolutely sure that the
transmitter antenna is always far enough
away from the receiver antennae! To be on the
safe side, keep them at least one meter apart.
Otherwise there is a risk of a faulty connection
to the return channel and malfunctions will
result.
• Since the telemetric data between transmitter
and receiver is only exchanged after the fourth
data package, the data transmission requires a
certain amount of time for technical reasons, so
the reaction to the operating keys and changes
to settings take place with a delay. Therefore, the
delay is not due to an error.
• Programming on the model or on sensors may
only take place if the model is on the ground. Only
carry out the settings with the motor switched
off and the battery disconnected! Otherwise,
undesired programming cannot be ruled out.
For example, a servo test initiated accidentally
could cause the model to crash and cause
personal injury and/or property damage. Observe
the safety instructions on pages 4 ... 7 of this
manual and the respective separate manuals.
• All settings (such as fail-safe, servo direction
reversal, servo travel, mixer and curve settings,
etc.) made through the »Telemetry« menu are
stored only in the receiver and therefore are
adopted along with it if it is implemented as a
receiver in another model. Therefore, to be on the
safe side, re-initialize your HoTT receiver if you
BIND. 1
want to use the receiver in a different model; see
"Reset" on page 46.
• Only program the servo direction reversal,
servo travel, mixer and curve settings through
mc-20
the -specifi c standard menus »Servo
adjustment« page 102, »Dual Rate / Expo«
page 120 or page 124, »Channel 1 curve«
page 128 or 131, and so on. Otherwise, the
settings superimpose one another, which can
lead to complexity or even problems in the later
operation.
• The channel assignment function, called "Channel
mapping", integrated into the »Telemetry« menu
mc-20
of the
distribute control functions over multiple receivers
or even distribute a single control function over
multiple receiver outputs, such as two servos per
aileron instead of only one individual servo, etc.
We also recommend exercising extreme during
the programming.
