The 92224 (RX600) 6-Channel receiver included with your SD-6G 2.4GHz FHSS-1 radio control system uses universal Airtronics
'Z' connectors which are electronically compatible with the servos of other radio control system manufacturers. The connectors
are rugged, but should be handled with care.
When unplugging the servo connector, it's best not to pull on the servo wire itself. This could result in damage to the servo
wire pins in the plastic plug. Always grasp the plastic connector itself.

Low Voltage Alarm
The SD-6G transmitter is equipped with a Low Voltage Alarm to warn you when the transmitter batteries need to be replaced or
recharged. The Low Voltage Alarm will sound when the transmitter batteries reach 6.7 volts. If the Low Voltage Alarm sounds
while you are flying, you should land immediately, then replace or recharge the transmitter batteries. If the Low Voltage Alarm
sounds after replacing or recharging the transmitter batteries, there may be a problem with the transmitter. If this occurs, please
contact Airtronics Customer Service using the information on the back cover of this Operating Manual.
Flight Mode Warning Alarm
The SD-6G transmitter is equipped with a safety feature that will not allow you to use the transmitter if the Flight Mode is not set
to FN (Normal) when you turn the transmitter ON. If the Flight Mode is not set to FN when you turn the transmitter ON, the Flight
Mode Warning alarm will sound continuously, the RF Output Indicator will flash, and the LCD will read F-MODE NOT 'N' ! To clear
the Flight Mode Warning, set the Flight Mode to FN using the Flight Mode Switches (move both Flight Mode switches forward).
The LCD will read normally, the Flight Mode Warning alarm will cease, and RF Output Indicator will stop flashing.
