Multi-Data Terminal - GRAUPNER mc-16 Programming Manual

Multi Data Terminal
Multi Data Information Display
The clear LCD MULTIDATA display with a static
driver, was developed for the mc-16/20 Computer
System. It offers a improved safety during operation,
since all important functions are displayed. Even in
bright sunlight, all the parameters on the display are
represented in high contrast.
Possible screen-displays of the
"Basic Transmitter Information":
• Normal operation
Three figure model name (or model number and
type) and battery condition (under load) in volts. On
pressing of the key the current modulation
CLEAR
mode is briefly displayed in place of the model name,
as "F" (FM-PPM) or "C" (PCM) in conjunction with
the type of model "FL, UN, Fb, AC or HE".
• Stop watch / alarm timer (see pages 23 - 24)
The upper display line changes, as soon as CH SEL
is pressed.
• Battery alarm
When the battery voltage drops under 9.0v the
display alternating between the normal data and
"BAT" caption. An audible warning signal sounds in
parallel to it seven times consecutively. Landing of a
model aircraft must made immediately after the
"BAT" alarm display is reached, to allow recharging
of transmitter battery.
