Trainer, switch (momentary switch SNPT) can also be programmed as the Master
channel.
If you activate dual functions in the Device Select screen, the following slave
channels are available: AILV, FPRN, FROL, and RUDV. These functions allow
the ailerons to be moved as flaps, flaps to be moved as ailerons, elevators to be
moved as ailerons, rudders to be moved as speed brakes, both in or both out.
There are 2 options for Master channels:
“#” (pound sign).
These Master channels are Origin-type mixes. Origin
mixing bypasses any other mixing affecting that channel, such as throttle curves,
exponential or travel adjust, and uses the stick position only to control the mix.
“+” sign.
These Master channels are include-type mixes. Trim Include mixes
include the trim of the Master channel and any other mixing to the Master channel
if selected to control the Slave channel of the mix.
fUNCTIONS Of THE STANDARD
PROGRAMMAbLE MIXER
Standard Programmable Mixer - (Std. Prog Mixer)
The 11X has 3 standard programmable mixers that allow linear mixing of a
Master channel to a Slave channel. The standard mixers are PROG.Mix 1, Mix 2,
and Mix 3.
These mixes provide two sets of mixing values named Pos0 and Pos1. If one set
of values is set to 0%, you can turn the mixer On and Off with a stick, switch, or
lever. Each set of mixing values has 2 percentages to accommodate movement of
the Master channel in both directions. This is shown in the illustration below with
an upper and lower percentage for both Pos0 and Pos1.
You can set a mix to always be on by setting Pos0 values only and not selecting
any switches to switch between the Pos0 and Pos1 values.
MASTER CHANNEL -
(STD. PROG MIXeR)
The Master channel is the primary or controlling channel. The default for both the
Master the Slave channel is THRO. Highlight and select the Master parameter to
obtain a list of channels. Select the Master channel from the list.
If the master channel selected is capable of include or origin mixing, a pop-up
menu will appear with a list of include functions available. Generally, you can
include the Trim, so the trim for the master channel also functions on the slave
channel. Additionally, you can set D/R & EXP settings and some mix functions to
include, so they function on the slave channel as well.
If all include settings are set to OFF, then the mix is an Origin-type mix. In such
a mix only the master channel control stick or switch functions on the slave
channel.
To enter Pos0 values, highlight and select Pos0. Move the Master channel control
(stick, lever or switch) in one direction and set the percentage. Then move the
Master channel control in the other direction and set its value.
Pos1 settings are identical to the Pos0 settings. They determine how far, and in
which direction, the slave channel moves when the master is moved above and
below the offset and the switch is in a position to select Pos1 values.
To enter Pos1 values, highlight and select Pos1, move the Master channel control
(stick, lever or switch) in one direction and set the percentage. Then move the
Master channel control in the other direction and set its value.
CLR bUTTON -
(STD. PROG MIXeR)
SLAvE CHANNEL
Pressing the CLR button with a modifiable mix selected resets the parameter to
its default value. Pressing the CLR button when the Master or Slave channel is
highlighted Inhibits the entire mix, making it no longer functional.
TO INHIbIT A MIX
Highlight either the Master or Slave and press the CLR button to completely
disable a mixer.
MULTI-POINT PROGRAMMAbLE
MIXER
There are 3 Multi-Point Programmable Mixers in the 11X - Prog. Mix4 through
Prog.Mix6. They differ from standard mixes because they allow non-linear mix
response from the Master to the Slave. They use up to 7 points to define the
position of the slave channel in relation to the Master channel at up to eight
selectable points. As the Master reaches each point, the Slave response position
can be defined independent of other point settings.
POINT NAMES/NUMbERS
The adjustable points list vertically by name and display by number along the
bottom of the graph.
To change the value of a point, highlight and select the point name then dial in the
desired percentage.
SLAvE CHANNEL -
(STD. PROG MIXeR)
The Slave channel is the secondary receiving channel and moves according to the
program mix in relation to the Master channel. The default for both the Master the
Slave channel is THRO.
Highlight and select the Slave parameter to obtain a list of channels. Then select
the Slave channel from the list. The list contains each of the 11 channels in the
system and CANCEL.
SWITCH POSITION
The left side of the Programmable mix screen displays the available switch
options. If you want a switch to control the mix, either on/off or have two mix
values, highlight and select the desired switch(s) and select position 0 or 1. Each
standard programmable mixer has two positions - Pos0 and Pos1 and each
position has 2 percentages (upper and lower) to accommodate mixing when the
Master is moved in both directions. Note that Pos1 has priority over Pos0.
OffSET
Offset defines the position where the mixer changes direction. The Offset defaults
to center position or 0 and is most commonly used. With a 0 Offset, if the Rudder
is Master, moving the rudder stick to the left of center causes a mix in one
direction while moving the rudder stick of the right of center causes a mix in the
other direction. Directions correspond to the upper and lower percentages for
Pos0 and the upper and lower percentages of Pos1. The amount of mix and actual
direction the slave moves is determined by the Pos0/Pos1 values. Offset applies
to both Pos0 and Pos1 settings.
To change Offset, highlight and select Offset and adjust with a positive (+) or
negative (-) value. A positive percentage moves the offset in one direction from
center while a negative percentage moves it in the other direction from center.
MIX vALUES
Pos0 settings determine how far, and in which direction, the slave channel moves
when the master is moved above and below the Offset and the switch is in a
position to select the Pos0 values.
CURRENT POINT SETTING
This list shows the setting for each of the 7 adjustable points (Point-L, 1, 2, 3, 4,
5, H). The value of each point determines where the point is positioned vertically
on the graph, dictating the Slave servo position relative to the Master. You can
set the point values from -100 to +100. A value of 0 indicates the Slave’s center
or neutral position. The overall travel of the slave channel is affected by the Travel
settings described in the TRVL ADJ. function.
To change the value for a point, highlight and select the Point Name to the left of
the point value. Then dial in the desired value.
Pressing the CLR button when a point value is highlighted resets the point to
original settings.
vERTICAL LINE
The Vertical line on the graph shows the current Master channel position. When
you deflect the Master channel fully in one direction, the line is to the extreme
left over Point-L. At neutral, the Master channel is in the center over Point-1.
When fully deflected in the other direction, the cursor is at the extreme right of
the graph over Point-H. Where the vertical line intersects, the Curve/Line over a
given point defines the Slave servo position, which is equal to the value assigned
to that point.
GRAPH
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. The bottom half of the graph is one direction from neutral, and the top
portion of the graph is the other direction.
POINTS YOU CAN ADD AND ADJUST
Curve mixes default to three points (L, 1 and H). You can add up to four
additional points. To add a point, move the master channel in the desired position
until STOR appears on the left bottom of the screen. Press STOR to save a new
point at that position.
To eliminate a point, press ERASE (bottom left of the screen) when the point is
highlighted by moving the master channel.
EXPONENTIAL
The Exponential function blends the Curve between the points on the graph to
provide a smooth response. The default value is OFF. To turn it on and smooth the
mixing curve, highlight and select OFF. It will toggle to ON.
