Programmable Function Trainer (P.F.T.)
In this mode, the Master can assign functions to the Slave one at a time as an aid to the student. For example, the Master
might assign the Slave Rudder and Elevator control only. Thus, when the trainer switch is operated, the Slave controls the
Rudder and Elevator, while the Master continues to control the Throttle and Ailerons. Please note that all Servo reversing,
Travel Adjustments and mixes etc. will be taken from the Master Transmitter and the Slave Transmitter must be reset to its
default. This happens automatically when the PCM9XII is used in Slave mode. Due to slight errors in set-up, occasionally
there may be slight control surface deflection as the Trainer switch is operated. If this occurs, the movement should be
eliminated using the Slave Trims.
PCM9XII used as Master
To activate the Normal Trainer System: No set-up is necessary, the Normal Trainer System is automatically activated.
To activate the Programmable Function Trainer, select the Slave primary control to be transferred by rotating the Scroll
Bar and click on it to toggle between MAST (Master) and SLAV (Slave). The black indicator square moves between the
bottom of the box (MAST) to the top of the box (SLAV) to indicate the current selection. The selection toggles between
the MAST and SLAV positions with each click. When Slave is selected, control of that channel is transferred to the Slave
transmitter as the Trainer switch is operated. Repeat the selection for all channels that are to be transferred. Notice that
when one or more channels are selected as Slave, the screen changes from NORMAL T. to PROGRAM T. to indicate the
current Trainer mode. To reset the Trainer system to normal, press the clear (CLR) key on the left of the display screen.
All channels selected as Slave are transferred to the Slave transmitter when the Trainer switch is operated.
Channel Identification:
THRO Throttle channel. ELEV Elevator channel.
AILE Aileron channel. RUDD Rudder channel.
PCM9XII used as Slave
To set the transmitter to be a Programmable Function Trainer Slave, select "MASTER" by rotating the Scroll Bar and
click on it to toggle between MASTER (transmitter to be used as a Master) and SLAVE (transmitter to be used as a Slave).
When SLAVE is selected, a message shows, confirming that to continue with the set-up, the DSC lead should be connected
and the transmitter switched off.
The transmitter should remain turned off when used as a Slave as only the encoder section is required. Inserting the DSC
lead switches on only the required parts of the transmitter. In Slave mode, the modulation is automatically set to PPM and
all channels are automatically reset to default values ready to be used with the Programmable Trainer Function.
