●
Switch warning: Defines whether the radio requests the switches to be in predefined positions on power
on/model change. To set them, arrange your switches the way you like, and press ENTER LONG.
●
Center beep: Makes a beep when the selected control(s) pass the center point.
●
Internal RF:
○
Mode: Transmission mode of the internal RF module (OFF, D16, D8, LR12).
○
Channel range: Choice of which of the radio's internal channels are actually transmitted over the
air.
○
Receiver no (D16 / LR12 only): defines the behavior of the receiver lock function. This number is
sent to the receiver, which will only respond to the number it was bound to. By default this is the
number of the model's slot when it is created. It can however be changed manually, and will not
change if a model is moved or copied. If manual setting or a copy/move operation results in 2 or
more models on the radio having the same number, a warning popup will show up. It is then up to
the user to determine if this is the desired behavior or not and change if required.
○
Bind and range check fields get activated by a press of the ENTER key. The radio will beep every
few seconds to confirm. Range check will display a popup with the RSSI value to evaluate how
reception quality is behaving.
○
Failsafe mode (D16 / LR12 only): Allows choosing between simply holding the last received
positions, turning off pulses (like old PPM MHz receivers), or moving the servos to custom
predefined positions. For custom positions a SET field will call the failsafe settings page, where
the position can be defined separately for each channel. Select the desired channel, press ENTER
to get in edit mode, move the control to the desired position, and press ENTER to save. In D8
mode this field is hidden, failsafe needs to be set on the receiver as described in the receiver's
manual.
●
External RF:
○
Module type: PPM for generic modules, XJT (same operation modes as above), DSM for
Spektrum “hack” modules made using
. Note that the Orange DSM and
Spektrum DM9 modules both need PPM.
○
Channel range: same as for internal module.
○
Receiver no, Bind, Range check (when module type is XJT): Same as above.
○
PPM Frame (when module type is PPM): Allows setting the frame length, pulse length, and
polarity of the PPM frame. The frame length is automatically adjusted to a safe value when the
number of transmitted channels is changed. Advanced users can still adjust it afterwards if
necessary.
○
Failsafe mode: When module type is XJT, same as above.
●
Trainer mode: Master or slave, this setting defines which way the trainer port works. An icon is shown in
the main view when the cable is inserted showing which mode is in use. In Slave (output) mode, the
channels that should be sent and the PPM frame parameters are customizable just like for External RF ->
PPM.
Helicopter setup
A SHORT press of the PAGE key will bring up the helicopter CCPM head mixer page. This page allows setting a
swashplate type, and limiting the control authority through the Swash Ring setting.
