Nautic Mode / Multiswitch Mode - beier USM-RC-2 Operating Manual

Nautic mode / Multiswitch mode

The Nautic mode or the Multiswitch mode is probably the most convenient method of
operating the sound module when using your remote control.
Here, the appropriate switch module at the transmitter is required. At present the
USM-RC-2 supports the following switch modules (and modules compatible with
them):
 BEIER-Electronic NMS-16
 BEIER-Electronic NMS-24
 Graupner Nautic-Expert Modul (Nr. 4108)
 Robbe Multi-Switch Module (Nr. 8084, 8101, 8413, F1511)
 Mergen/CP 12-Kanal and 16-Kanal Multiswitch
The USM-RC-2 even supports 2 nautic/multiswitch-channels. So you can also install
2 switching modules in your transmitter to control even more functions.
Some of the latest remote controls include a "software nautic module" as well. In
most of these cases no additional hardware switch modules are necessary. Please
refer to the operating instructions supplied with your transmitter for further details.
If you want to use nautic mode, you will have to activate it in the Sound-Teacher. The
activation is done under „Nautic 1" or "Nautic 2" in the configuration.
A particular function can now be assigned to each switch position (see page 30) in
the Sound-Teacher (see page 65). Operating the corresponding switch triggers the
function which is set at the sound module.
A memory function can also be activated for each switch position. If the memory
function is active, the function at the sound module is switched on or off when the
switch is operated, and remains in that state until the switch is operated a second
time.
Use a servo patch lead to connect the corresponding receiver output (according to
the channel which your switch module occupies at the remote control) to proportional
channel #3 (X2/3) or channel #4 (X2/4) of the sound module.
If the sound module is picking up the data correctly from your switch module, the blue
LED on the sound module will allways flash briefly at regular intervals.
If the blue LED does not flash regularly, or if the Nautic switches do not work, check
the settings at your transmitter. If you are unsure about this, please read the
operating instructions supplied with your transmitter, as they generally provide
information on the settings required for Nautic modules (e.g. servo travel at
maximum).
If you you a equipment with Jeti Duplex 2.4GHz, the "output period" of the receiver
must be set on "byTransmitter" by the Jeti-Box. Other important setting: ATV High
Limit: 2,20 ms, ATV Low Limit: 0,80 ms
