Ikarus OSD Menu
All "Ikarus OSD" configuration options can be configured from the PC application, so the use
of Ikarus OSD menu is not normally necessary, except for the main flight menu. Moreover, due to
space limitations in "Ikarus OSD" microcontroller not all the configuration variables are accessible
through the menus. The OSD is designed thinking that users usually will fly with the help of the flight
console, but in the case of flying without a computer, make sure you correctly configured the OSD
at home, because once in the field, flight route or autopilot gains may not be modify without the use of
a computer. For modification of the most common parameters, or calibration of some sensors, you can
use the menus without a computer.
The menu navigation is done using two functions: "NEXT" and "OK."
"NEXT" control allows us to move into a menu screen, or has chosen to edit a certain value,
move between different options being proposed. For numeric values will increase or decrease these
values.
With "OK" control, the user can select the menu entry that is selected at that time, allowing to
go to the next menu if it is a menu entry, or modify the value of a variable, if it's a setting.
The way to access to "NEXT" and "OK" will depend on the type of control assign to "Ikarus
OSD”. For example:
•
Switch 2 (positions): Requires also the use of the rudder channel.
•
Switch 3 (positions): Centered not selected any of the two functions. Each of the two ends
active "NEXT" or "OK."
•
Dial or slider: His behavior is similar to the 3-position switch. Centered not select any of the
functions, and moving the dial to each of its travel ends select "NEXT" or "OK."
•
Mix 223: The 3-position switch controls the menu navigation. Note that this mode is sensitive
to the control channel calibration that has been made, so if you can not navigate properly, make
sure the mixes are properly set up and control channel calibration it's made properly.
•
Mix 224: This is actually a mix 2222. The 2 less significant switches in the mix will control the
navigation menus.
