The technical data of the optional receiver are available in the man- ual included in the receiver package content. Description Graupner transmitters mc-16, mc-20, mc-26, mc-28 and mc-32 offer the possibility to connect up to 4 independent servos to one transmitter channel.
Symbols explication Always observe the information indicated by this warning sign. Particularly those which are additionally marked with the CAU- TION or WARNING. The signal word WARNING indicates the poten- tial for serious injury, the signal word CAUTION indicates possibil- ity of lighter injuries.
The 4 channel proportional module has been developed for use in RC models and it should only be used for the previewed scope. Please note that the module should only be used within the indi- cated limit values (see technical data). Use and store the unit in a dry environment only.
Setting the electric connections The module consumes so few current that you can connect it through the included patch cable directly to the multichannel output of the receiver. You can connect servos with low power consumption directly to the module, but only if the total power consumption of all the connected functions is lower than 3,0 A and only if the receiver voltage is enough (see switch plan).

Programming the control in HoTT transmitter To allow the transmitter to transmit the data correctly, you still have to set one option in your transmitter. Enter the "Telemetry" menu, open the "Settings & view" line and move through the touch pads to the "CH OUT TYPE" line. Here please select the "SAME"...

Programming the switch assignment of HoTT transmitter Soon after you will have to actuate the desired control (potenti- ometer). So the control is assigned to the channel. After actuating the slide control SL1 it looks like this. Use the same process to assign the other controls in the trans- mitter.
The firmware in the 4 channel proportional module has been adjusted and developed specifically for Graupner HoTT 2,4 GHz systems. If you have an older Graupner/JR transmitter (40 MHz or IFS) and you have any questions, please feel free to con- tact our Hotline: service@graupner.de or +49 (7021) 722-130...
