Setting the Collective Switch:
From the ’Tracking Setup’ sub-menu, use the arrow keys to
navigate to ’Collective Switch’.
Press the
ENTER key to select. The 'Collective Switch'
screen displays.
Using the arrow keys, navigate to the collective switch mode
required.
Select
Normally Closed
if the collective switch is closed
when the helicopter is in flight (check that the message
at the bottom of the screen reflects the current position
of the collective, i.e. down for down and up for up).
Select
Normally Open
if the collective switch is open
when the helicopter is in flight. This is the most common
configuration of a collective switch (check that the
message at the bottom of the screen reflects the current
position of the collective, i.e. down for down and up for
up).
Select
Not Installed
if the DZM collective switch hardware is
not connected to a collective switch.
The bottom line of the 'Collective Switch' screen enables
you to check that the collective switch mode is configured
correctly - the "Check Collective..." message enables you
to check that the collective switch setting is correct.
Press the
ENTER key to save.
Manual GPS data will be transmitted regardless of 'Collective
Switch' settings. This allows positions to be marked while on the
ground or hovering.
