Note:
If there is an SD card installed, withdraw it BEFORE you
remove the transmitter’s back panel, otherwise there is a
risk that you will damage the card.
Prepare the memory card as described, remove it from
the transmitter, and insert it in a suitable card reader.
Make sure the reader is connected to your PC or lap-
top, and copy the files previously downloaded from the
Download page for your transmitter into the appropriate
folder. Finally remove the memory card from the card
reader, and replace it in the transmitter.
Data recording / storage
The process of saving data on the SD card is coupled to
the flight timer: if the timer is started, then data saving
commences - provided that a suitable memory card
is in the card slot, and a telemetry connection to the
receiver exists - and ceases again when the flight timer
is stopped. The flight timer is started and stopped as
described in the “Timers” section on page 77 for fixed-
wing models, and pages 86 for model helicopters.
When data is being recorded, the card symbol
flashes constantly and slowly.
When data is being written to the memory card, the
memory card symbol swells from left to right to indicate
the process.
When a data storage process is concluded, you will find
an (empty) “Models” folder and a “Log-Data” folder on
the memory card. The latter contains the log files, stored
in sub-folders named “Model name”, using the format
0001 Year-Month-Day.bin, 0002 Year-Month-Day.bin etc.
However, if a model memory has not yet been named,
then you will find the associated log files in a sub-folder
named “NoName” when you remove the memory card
from the transmitter and insert it in the card slot of a PC
or laptop. The data can subsequently be analysed on a
compatible PC using the PC program available on the
Download page for the transmitter at www.graupner.de.
Firmware updates / Changing the screen language
It is possible to replace and / or update the transmit-
ter’s firmware - and the transmitter’s screen language,
if necessary - under menu control, as described in
detail on page 27 under the title “Firmware update” in
the “
Hidden Mode
” chapter. In addition to a German
version of the firmware, the SD card supplied in the set
as standard also contains firmware versions in English,
French, Italian and Spanish; this information was correct
at the time these instructions went to press.
Corresponding updates and information can be found
in the Download area of www.graupner.de under the
product concerned.
Importing voice files
As mentioned in the “Headphone socket” section on
page 21, the signals associated with the Telemetry
menu and voice messages can be generated via this
socket, in addition to the transmitter’s audible signals.
These voice messages are collected in a voice package
and stored in the transmitter’s internal memory, but they
can be replaced by a voice package in another language
at any time. For more information on this please refer to
the “
HIDDEN MODE
” section starting on page 26.
Importing and exporting model memories
Any model memories can be copied onto a memory
card in the transmitter, or copied from the card into the
transmitter, so that you can exchange data between
identical transmitters, and also back up your data. For
more information please see the “
Model memories
”
section starting on page 70.
Note:
Some of the special characters used in certain model
names cannot be accepted due to specific limitations
of the FAT or FAT32 file system used by memory cards.
During the copy process they are replaced by a tilde (~)
character.
