button to change a channel’s assignment from a
traditional I/O channel to a Plus-X channel.
2.
When the Override Channel dialog appears, select
Plus-X channel
and choose the Plus-X
device from the list.
3.

4.
Click

.
Once mapped, the PlusConnect channel will appear on the front panel of the ARC Plus, in AutoPilot, on
the ARC Plus web page, and will be accessible via the ESI/RSI.
Setting up Labels, Limits and Alarms
Labels, limits and alarms for PlusConnect parameters are set up in AutoLoad Plus. The process is the
same as for limits and alarms of other ARC Plus channels. Refer to the ARC Plus manual for information
on channel configuration.
Important! Because operation preferences vary so widely, no alarms are pre-configured within the
PlusConnect channels. You must use AutoLoad Plus to set up alarms for the PlusConnect channels.
Creating a PlusConnect Custom View in AutoPilot Plus
PlusConnect Custom View for the GatesAir ZXA
The easiest way to monitor your PlusConnect parameters is by creating a Custom View in AutoPilot
using a pre-built template specific to your transmitter model. In order to use templates, you must map
the default set of channels to the ARC Plus during setup. If you have mapped a custom set of channels,
you can still use a Custom View to display them, but the template will not function as intended.
