A-26
The 12X provides the ability to change the standard default
switch assignments for the GEAR, FLAP, AUX2, AUX3, AUX4,
AUX5, AUX6, and AUX7 channels. Changing the switch
assignments is a matter of preference. The standard switch
assignments may be changed in the Devic.SEL function
contained in the SYSTEM MODE.
1. In the Devic.SEL function, use the Selector to highlight
and select the desired channel to the right of GEAR, FLAP,
AUX2, AUX3, AUX4, AUX5, AUX6 or AUX7.
Switch Assignments
To Change One or More Switch Assignments:
The 12X provides the ability to activate, inhibit or program
channel 5 (Gear), channel 7 (Aux2) and channel 8 (AUX 3) to
operate as a Governor, Gyro or Pitch function.
Note : Inhibiting a channel is necessary when auxiliary
channels are used as dual primary flight controls, such
as using 2 channels/servos for 2 Ailerons or 2 servos/
channels to operate the Elevator or Rudder. In this
instance, the auxiliary channels are no longer to be
operated by their auxiliary switches but rather by the
Elevator and Rudder sticks and must be inhibited in the
Device Select function.
Note : If any of the channels identified above are to be
used as a 2nd channel for a primary flight control (AILE,
ELEV, RUDD, FLAP), then be sure to Inhibit (INH) the
switches for the channels in this function or they will not
be available to use as a second control channel.
1. If GEAR, FLAP, AUX2, AUX3, AUX4, AUX5, AUX6 or AUX7
are to be used as a 2nd primary flight control, then inhibit
the corresponding switch by highlighting ACT along the
right side of the display; press the roller to select INH.
Activate/Inhibit Channels
Note : When SYS appears next to FLAP, the FLAP SYSTEM
function will appear in the FUNC.LIST (described later).
If the aircraft is equipped with flaps, or equipped with
Flaperons that are actually going to be used as flaps then
SYS should be set next to FLAP.
Note : When GYR appears, the Gyro Function will appear
in the FUNC.LIST (described later on page A-38). Two
gyro programs are available.
Note : When GOV appears, the Governor Function will
appear in the FUNC.LIST (described later on page A-38).
Flight modes must be active for this function to be
available.
Note : When PIT appears, the Pitch Function will appear in
the FUNC.LIST (described later on page A-55).
2. Once a switch is selected, a list of available switches is
graphically displayed. Highlight and select the desired
switch with the Selector.
3. Repeat for as many switches as desired.
