5.2. RECEIVER DISPLAY
5.2.1 Receiver Data View (RX DATAVIEW)
If you wish to switch to the receiver data display, press the ENTER button repeatedly until RX DATA-
VIEW appears on the screen.
Please note: menus 3.2.1 to 3.2.6 can only be selected when the receiver is
switched on. When you switch the receiver on, it may take a few seconds befo-
re the receiver display becomes active and can be selected: > symbol appears
at the top right corner of the transmitter display (TX).
There may be a slight delay in the screen’s response to inputs using the top
buttons, since all the settings are transmitted directly to the receiver by wire-
less means.
In the receiver data view display settings can not be made.
Signal quallity (S-QUA):
shows the signal quality in %
Receive performance (S-dBm):
the receive performance is sent “live” to the SMART-BOX via the
receiver’s downlink channel. Note: the receive performance is shown as a negative value, i.e. a value
approaching zero is the maximum (= best reception); the lower the value falls, the worse the receive
performance.
This value is particularly important during the range-check procedure carried out before
fl
ying the mo-
del.
Please read the corresponding section in the RC system instructions relating to range-checking.
Carry out a range-check before every
fl
ight, simulating all servo movements which will occur in
fl
ight: the
range must be at least 50 m on the ground when the transmitter is set to range-check mode; to guaran-
tee safe
fl
ying, the value displayed under S-dBm in the DATAVIEW display should be at least -80 dBm.
If the value is lower (e.g. -85 dBm) you should not even consider
fl
ying your model: check the receiver
installation and the power supply systems in your model and radio control system.
When operating your model this value should not fall below -90 dBm. If it does, you should reduce the
distance between yourself and the model. However, under normal circumstances the
audible range
warning (see below)
will be triggered before the value falls to this level, in order to ensure safe ope-
rations.
Signal strenght (S-STR)
: indicates the signal strenght in %.
An audible range warning
(continuous beeping at one-second intervals) is always emitted as soon
as the receiver signal in the downlink channel falls to the pre-set threshold. Since the transmitter has a
much higher transmitting power than the receiver, it is still possible to operate the model safely, but in
the interests of security you should always reduce the distance to the model until the audible warning
stops.
Receiver temperature (R-TEMP):
it is important that the temperature of your receiver always stays
within the approved range under all
fl
ight conditions (ideally between 10 and 55°C; please refer to your
RC system instructions).
