Slave Channel - (Multi-Point Mixer)
This is the Slave channel that moves according to the
program mix in relation to the Master channel.
To select the Slave channel, highlight and select this
parameter to obtain a list of channels. Then select the
Slave channel from the list of 9 channels.
Point Names/Numbers - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The points you can adjust are listed vertically by name
and displayed by number along the bottom of the graph.
Change the value of a point by highlighting and selecting
the point name and dialing-in the desired percentage.
Current Point Setting - (Multi-Point Mixer)
This list shows the setting for each of the 7 adjustable
points (Point-0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6). The value of each point
determines where the point is positioned vertically on the
graph, which dictates the Slave servo position. You can
set the values from -100 to +100. -100 is full deflection in
one direction. +100 is full deflection in the other direction.
A value of 0 indicates the Slave’s center or neutral
position. The overall Travel settings of the slave channel
are set in the TRVL ADJ. function.
A point value of
INH
can also be set for points 1, 2, 4, and
5. When set to
INH
the point takes on a value represented
by the intersection of the cursor and the Curve/Line
between the 2 adjacent points. For instance, if Point-1 is
set to -67, Point-2 is set to INH and Point-3 is set to 0,
then Point-2, which is inhibited, takes on a value of -34,
which is midway between points 1 and 3.
Change the value for a point by highlighting and selecting
the Point Name to the left of the point value then dialing-
in the desired value.
Pressing the CLR button when a point value is
highlighted resets the point to original settings. The
original settings are:
Point-0
-100
Point-1
INH
Point-2
INH
Point-3
0
Point-4
INH
Point-5
INH
Point-6
+100
Cursor - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The cursor shows the current Master channel position.
When the Master channel is deflected fully in one
direction, the cursor is to the extreme left over Point-0,
when it is at neutral it is in the center over Point-3 and
when it is fully deflected in the other direction the cursor
is at the extreme right of the graph over Point-6.
The cursor moves across the 7 points as the Master is
moved from one extreme to the other. Where the cursor
intersects the Curve/Line over a given point defines the
amount of Slave servo deflection, which is equal to the
value assigned to the point. For example, if Point-2 is set
to 30% then the servo deflects 30% from neutral when the
Master is advanced so the cursor is over that point.
Curve/Line - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The Curve/Line is the line that results from connecting all
of the points together based on their point values.
Graph - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The graph illustrates the mixing curve. The X-Axis
(horizontal plane) represents Master channel movement.
The Y-Axis (vertical plane) represents the Slave servo
movement where the bottom half of the graph is one
direction from neutral and the top portion of the graph is
the other direction.
Points That Can Be Adjusted - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The points you can adjust are listed vertically by name
and displayed by number along the bottom of the graph.
Use the numbers along the bottom of the graph to
determine which point(s) need adjustment.
Change the value of a point by highlighting and selecting
the Point Name and dialing-in the desired percentage.
Exponential - (Multi-Point Mixer)
This parameter smoothes the Curve/Line between all of
the points on the graph to provide a smoother mixing
response. The default value is
OFF
. To turn it on and
smooth the mixing curve, highlight and select
OFF. I
t will
toggle to
ON
.
Slave Channel Position - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The Slave servo position next to OUT at the bottom left of
the display is expressed in values from -100 to +100, with
0 being neutral or center. It represents the servo travel
corresponding to the present Master Channel position.
Note
: When the mixer is switched OFF, the out
value changes to OFF instead of displaying the Slave
position. This is how to determine if the
mixer is ON or OFF.
Master Channel Position - (Multi-Point Mixer)
The Master channel position shown on the bottom line of
the display next to IN is expressed in values from 0 to 100
with 50 being the center or neutral position. It represents
the present Master channel position.
Select Switch - (Multi-Point Mixer)
There are 3 switches that can be always used to switch
between the Pos0 and Pos1 settings (if the upper and
lower settings for Pos0 or Pos1 are left at 0% the mixer
can be turned on and off with the switch). They include
the Rudder D/R switch, Butterfly Switch, Rudder D/R
switch and the AUX4 switch. In addition, if you activate
Flight Modes in the Devic. SEL function, 5 more switches
are available: Cruise, Speed, Thermal, Launch and Land,
which correspond to the 3 positions of the Flight Mode
switch.
To select a switch that will switch between the Pos0 and
Pos1 values, highlight and select the switch name and
it will toggle between Pos0 and Pos1. Set the desired
switch(es) to Pos1.
CLR Button - (Multi-Point Mixer)
Pressing the CLR button while a modifiable parameter is
selected resets the parameter to its default value.
Note
: Pressing the CLR button when either the
Master or Slave is highlighted Inhibits the entire
mixer and it is no longer functional.
LIST Button - (Multi-Point Mixer)
Press the LIST button to return to the FUNCTION List, or
rotate the rotary selector until
LST
appears next to LIST
and select it to return to the SYSTEM Menu.
ENT Button - (Multi-Point Mixer)
Pressing the ENT button returns to the Main Display.
TO INHIBIT A MIXER (TURN IT OFF ENTIRELY)
Highlight either the Master or Slave and press the CLR
button to completely disable a mixer.
