FUNCTION LIST
RATES
Rates (dual rate) allow you to make on-the-fly travel adjustments to Steering, Throttle or Brakes using any of
the Programmable trimmers. The Rate screen also offers an override function, which allows you to access a
second rate (normally 100%) at the touch of a button or trimmer. This is especially helpful for oval racers that
program minimal steering throw to desensitize steering during racing, but requires maximum steering angle to
drive out of a crash or get turned around on the track.
To adjust Rate values:
1.
Scroll to Steering and click the scroll wheel to select between Steering, Throttle or Brake. Click the wheel
to save the selection.
2.
Scroll Up or Down to adjust the Rate value. Click the scroll wheel to save the selection.
3.
Select a Rate switch.
4.
Select an Override rate and switch.
5.
Select the OTF trimmer that will be used to adjust Rates on the fly.
IMPORTANT: In order for the OVERRIDE to operate, you must assign it to a switch or trimmer. The default
position for this function is inhibited.
EXPONENTIAL
The Exponential (Expo) function affects the response rate of the steering, throttle and/or brake. A positive
Steering Expo value, for example, decreases steering sensitivity around neutral to make it easier to drive at
high speeds in a straight line while still allowing for maximum turning radius. While sensitivity with positive
Expo is decreased around neutral, it increases the sensitivity near the end of travel.
To adjust Expo values:
1.
Select Throttle or Steering.
2.
Scroll Up or Down to adjust the Rate value. The graph shows the Expo Curve.
3.
Click the scroll wheel to save the selection.
4.
Select an OTF switch to activate Exponential.
If Switch ON is selected, the Expo value will always be on for that function. If another switch is selected, the
Expo can be turned ON/OFF or 2-3 different Expo values can be entered depending on the switch used.
IMPORTANT: Both positive and negative Expo values are available. A positive Expo value results in the
center being less sensitive (desirable most of the time), while a negative value increases the sensitivity
around center (normally not used).
TIMER
The DX5R Timer function allows you to program a countdown timer and stop watch (count up timer) to display
on the main screen. An alarm sounds when the programmed time is reached. You can program the timer
to start using the assigned switch position or automatically when throttle moves above a pre programmed
position.
Two internal timers are available that show run time for a specific model displayed on the Main Screen. and a
total system timer.
