Once on a page, short presses of LEFT and RIGHT step through the various items found there, such
as physical and custom switches.
Navigation in a Menu
Navigation in a menu is straight forward: The UP/DOWN/RIGHT/LEFT keys will navigate between
editable fields, or lines of fields depending on the screen.
Pressing MENU will enter the edit mode. In this mode, RIGHT/LEFT change the value, while MENU
or EXIT validate the input and return to navigation. If there is only one value on a line to be edited,
the LEFT and RIGHT keys change it directly without pressing MENU.
A short press on EXIT goes back to the previous navigation level, but a long press goes back to the
home page where you started. To return to the previous page, long press the MENU button.
In edit mode, a shortcut is available to reverse the sign of a value. With the cursor on the value,
press LEFT and RIGHT keys together and the sign will change from positive to negative or vice
versa. (This works even with the cruciform key arrangement, as the keys register close enough
together for the radio to recognize the shortcut.)
Home Pages
There are five Home pages, four of which show the same basic information in the top part of the
screen: model name, transmitter battery voltage, timer value, timer switch identity, and trim
increment setting. Trim position graphics are shown on the sides and bottom of the screen. The fifth
Home page shows telemetry.
Home Page 1 (Stick and Pot Positions)
In the first Home page view, the lower half of the screen shows a graphical representation of stick
and potentiometer positions. A list of the switches shows those in the ‘up’ position in normal text,
while those in the 'down' position are presented in white letters on a dark background (i.e.,
reversed). In other words, this screen shows the inputs to the processing.
In the upper half of the screen, the transmitter voltage is displayed in large print, along with the trim
increment type, here ‘Med’ (see
page 20)
. The current value of Timer 1 is also shown in large print,
along with the switch used to activate it, here ‘THs’
(see page 19)
. In addition, the current Flight
Mode will be displayed if it is other than the default FM01.
Home Page 2 (Graphic Servo Outputs)
In the second Home page view (short press down from the previous screen), the upper part of
the screen is identical to Home Page 1, while the lower half of the screen shows in bar graph
