… where you program a “LinearMIX” from “9” to, say,
“8”.
On the second screen of this menu you “simply” set a
SYM metrical mixer input of +100%.

… and assign the fl ight phase-independent input “9”
to the transmitter control you have just set up, or one
of the other available transmitter controls. (For ex-
ample, this could be the right-hand slider, connected
by default to CH7.)
You can use the “Travel” column to set up the servo
travel to match your speed controller. You may need
to reverse the values (change to “–”), or use the “Re-
verse” facility in the »
Servo adjustment « menu.
If you wish to set a soft-start for the motor (in order to
avoid premature wear) even though you are using a
motor switch, then set a delay time in the right column
after selecting
ASY .
Note:
A
SYM metrical setting would also generate a delay
when switching the motor off, but this would not be
sensible, as it would deny you the freedom to switch
the motor off quickly in an emergency.
In the interests of safety, you should now move to in-
puts “7” and “8” and set both to “free”. If you have de-
cided to use inputs and transmitter controls other
than those suggested in this example, set the approp-
riate inputs to “free”.
(“Input 7” because “transmitter control 7” is entered
here as standard, but it is used for a different purpo-
se, and “Input 8”, to de-couple any “transmitter control
8” which may be present from “Input 8”.)

You would normally make use of the “Travel” column
at this point to set up the servo travel and direction
to match your speed controller. Alternatively you can
carry out these changes in the menu …

… where you should fi rst remember to select the line
corresponding to your receiver socket. In our example
this would be “Servo 8”, as shown.
Example 2
Using a two-position external switch (external
switch, Order No. 4160 or 4160.1)
This control variant implements a pure ON / OFF
function.
At the receiver end you would use either a simple
electronic switch, or – if you prefer a “soft” motor start
– a proportional speed controller.
The settings required for this are basically as descri-
bed under Example 1, and the same notes and re-
commendations apply.
The only area which differs from the previous descrip-
tion is the method of assigning the selected external
switch in the menu …

Here again you move to the line for the fl ight phase-
independent input “9” with the rotary control pressed
in. In contrast to Example 1, where you used SEL in
the second column, you now activate the switch sym-
bol
to the right of this with a brief press on the
rotary control, and then operate the desired exter-
nal switch (in our case “1”), moving it from the desired
motor OFF position to the motor ON position.
All the other settings are carried out as described in
Example 1, as mentioned at the start of this example.
