RADIO

 

SETUP 

A long press of the MENU key from any of the 

main views brings up the mostly self-explanatory 
radio setup menu: 

 

 

Date/Time: To be set, they serve as info but 
also to give a correct time stamp to files and 
logs saved by the radio. 
 

 

Battery range: range of the graphical radio 
battery meter on the main views. To be set 
accordingly with the battery type you use . 
 
 

 

Sound: set the mode, length, pitch, volume of 
the system beep. 
 

 

Alarms: set the alarm values for battery low, 
inactivity and memory low . Sound off: if 
"Sound Mode" is "Quiet", the radio will not 

even sound warnings like a low battery. This 
alarm will remind you of that when turning the 
radio on. 

 

 

Backlight -> Mode: If set to Stks, Keys or Both, 
the backlight will turn on when a stick is 
moved and/or a key is pressed, for the 
duration set below. 
 

 

Backlight -> Duration: set the duration for each 
lighting.  

 

 

Backlight -> Alarm: Backlight will flash when 
an alarm sounds if it's not already on at that 
time. 

 

 

Splash screen: On TARANIS the splash will 
always be shown as the EEPROM takes some 
time to load. Setting this on will just show it for 
longer. 
 

 

GPS Time Zone: set the time zone of your area. 
 

 

Country code: Must match your geographical 
location to keep RF transmission parameters 
within regulatory requirements. 
 

 

Default channel order: Defines the order of the 
4 default mixers that are inserted on channels 
1-4 when creating a new model. Set this to 
your preference. They can of course always be 
moved later, this is just a time-saving option. 

 

 

Mode: This is your stick mode, e.g. Mode 1 for 
throttle and aileron on the right stick, Mode 2 
for throttle and rudder on the left stick.
