When the transmitter is initially turned on, the model memory number model memory number, model memory name
model, modulation type and transmitter battery voltage are displayed on the LCD screen. When prompted by the user,
the functions and settings stored in the memory can also be read on the screen. The user accesses the different
functions using the MODE and SELECT keys and changes the values and settings using the DATA INPUT lever. (This is
called programming!)
Note:
Feel free to explore by scrolling through the programs and viewing the displays using the MODE and SELECT keys. The
MODE and SELECT keys only determine what will be displayed on the screen and will not change any of the settings. Only when
using the DATA INPUT lever will you be able to change any of the settings.
Model memory number and model name
The T6EAP stores model memories for six models. This means all the data (control throws, trims, end points, etc.) for
up to six different models can be stored in the transmitter and activated at any time (depending upon which model you
choose to fly that day). This eliminates the requirement for reconfiguring the transmitter each time you decide to fly a
different model with it! When the transmitter is turned on the model number, model name, modulation and the
transmitter voltage will be indicated on the LCD screen. Before every flight
BE CERTAIN
that the correct model number
for the model you intend to fly appears on the screen. If the transmitter is not operating the correct model, some (or all)
of the controls could be reversed and the travels and trims will be wrong.
Flying a model with the wrong program will result in a crash, so always
be certain
the model number and model name in the
transmitter is correct. One way to ensure this is to write the corresponding model number directly on the airplane, or attach a list
to the bottom or back of the transmitter.
Transmitter battery voltage
In addition to the model number, the LCD screen also displays the
transmitter battery voltage
. When the voltage
goes below approximately
8.5 Volts
the “battery” icon will flash and the low-battery alarm will continuously “beep”
until the transmitter is turned off. When the low-battery alarm sounds you will have approximately four minutes (or
less) to land your model before losing control. You should never allow the transmitter voltage to become this low while
flying, but if it does, land
immediately
.
9.4 Volts - No more flying until recharge.
8.9 Volts - Land as soon as safely possible.
8.5 Volts - Emergency- Land immediately! Emergency- Land immediately!
