As an example the reference point “2” has been set to
+90% in this screen-shot.
Pressing the CLEAR button erases the reference
point.
Note:
If the stick is not set to the exact reference point, ple-
ase note that the percentage value in the “Output” line
always refl ects the actual momentary stick position.
Alternatively you can skip in the upward or downward
direction straight to reference points that have already
been set by turning the rotary control when pressed
in; the number of the addressed point 1 … max. 6 is
always highlighted in the graph. When you release the
rotary control, the reference point can then be altered
as described previously, completely independently of
the position of the transmitter control.

Pressing the ESC button concludes this trim point
function.
Rounding off the Channel 1 curve
In the following example the reference points have
been set as follows, as described in the previous sec-
tion:
Reference point value 1 to +50%,
Reference point value 2 to +90%, and
Reference point value 3 to +0%.

This “jagged” curve profi le can be rounded off auto-
matically simply by pressing a button. Press the
EN-
TER button next to the “curve symbol” :

Note:
The curves shown here are only for demonstration
purposes, and by no means represent realistic thrott-
le / airbrake curves. “Real world” examples of this ap-
plication can be found in the programming examples
on pages 164 and 193.
Example: reversing a transmitter control:
To reverse the direction of a transmitter control, e. g.
the airbrake control, so that the airbrakes are retrac-
ted when the stick is “back” (towards you) and exten-
ded in the “forward” position, you simply need to pro-
duce the “mirror-image” of the Channel 1 curve. Raise
point “L” to +100% and lower point “H” to -100%. The
following example shows how to reverse a simple li-
near control curve:

Of course, the better method of reversing the direc-
tion of the C1 control is to pre-set the “Throttle mi-
nimum position” in the »
Model type « menu, as this
also reverses the direction of effect of the C1 trim;
see page 70.
