“Name” fi eld for that fl ight phase is already framed.
If the default name does not seem appropriate, touch
the central
SET button of the right-hand touch-key, and
the current setting is shown highlighted. Now use the
arrow buttons of the right-hand touch-key to select an
appropriate name from those available. Touch the
SET
button to conclude the input process.
Now press the
f
button of the left or right-hand touch-
key to move to the right-hand column at the bottom of
the screen, indicated by the switch symbol
, and
briefl y touch the central SET button. You can now assign
a switch to the phase as described on page 39. We
recommend one of the two three-position switches SW
4/5 or SW 6/7, in each case starting from the centre
toggle position.
For more information on fl ight phase programming
please refer to page 94, in the section entitled “Flight
phase specifi c settings for collective pitch, throttle and
tail rotor”.

The name “Auto-rotation” is permanently assigned to
Phase 4, and CANNOT be altered. The only available
option is to assign a switch to it using the switch symbol
at the right of the screen.
For more information on programming fl ight phases
please refer to the “
Helicopter mixers ” section starting
servo(s) to the selected output using the right-hand
arrow buttons, and confi rm your choice with
SET … or
alternatively touch the
cd
or
ef
buttons of the right-
hand touch-key ( CLEAR ) simultaneously to revert to the
default sequence.
Please note that any subsequent changes to servo
settings, such as servo travel, Dual Rate / Expo, mixers
etc.,
must be carried out according to the original
(default) receiver socket sequence.
Typical application:
In the helicopter program of the
mx-16
HoTT the
outputs for one collective pitch servo and the throttle
servo have been interchanged compared to all earlier
GRAUPNER/JR
mc
-systems. The throttle servo is now
assigned to receiver output “6” and the collective pitch
servo to output “1”. However, you may wish to retain the
earlier confi guration.

Note:
It is also possible to distribute the control functions
amongst as many receivers as you wish, using the
channel-mapping function in the
mx-16
HoTT’s
integral Telemetry menu, or even to assign the same
control function to multiple receiver outputs. However,
we strongly recommend that you use only one of the two
options, as a combination will soon lead to confusion.
on page 94.
Receiver output
For maximum fl exibility in terms of receiver socket
assignment, the
mx-16
HoTT software provides the
means to swap over the servo outputs 1 to max. 8;
this is carried out on the second page of the “Receiver
output” sub-menu.

receiv out
Touch the central SET button of the right-hand touch-key
to move to the next page of the display. Here you can
assign the “control channels” for servos 1 … 8 to any
receiver output you wish to use. However, please note
that the display in “
Servo display ” - which you can ac-
cess from virtually any menu position by simultaneously
touching the
e
and
f
buttons of the left-hand touch-
key - refers exclusively to the “ control channels ”, i. e. the
outputs are NOT swapped over.
